Really??? Ovetchkin? a conspiracy? I cant believe he really said that,. I wont dispute some of the officiating may have been lacking, but i think for both clubs. Surprised the league didnt get him for that, usually once you mention the refs, your had! Read more...
I'm not sure what everyone's obsession is with "authentic" merchandise. If someone is selling a jersey for $41, it's not going to be what the NHL shop calls "authentic". Their "authentic" is basically what the pros wear, very lightweight breathable fabrics, pro stitching, etc. It is the highest quality, and therefore the most expensive ($330). The NHL shop also sells other quality levels, "premier" and "replica". The premier is still pretty high quality, but at a lower price point ($125). Usually, the replica just looks like a pro jersey, but use lower quality materials. All of these are NHL licensed products.
Moral of the story is, if you're looking at a site that's selling a jersey for $41, it's almost guaranteed it's not an "authentic" garment, but probably a replica.
And i'm not even sure if what they sell on NHL.com is completely " Authentic " either, i have 1 or 2 Authentic jerseys, and i also have one that i was given by the owner of the sharks, and the sharks jersey is very different material than my other " Authentic " jerseys. But i agree, whats the big deal, to me, spending 300 on a jersey is nuts, unless it is signed by players or something, and even then ?????? Read more...
If you watched todays game, you know why Callahan is the hardest working player in the NHL. What a sweet shorthanded goal...The guy is relentess Read more...
Frustrating to watch, so many defensive breakdowns. The PP goal was weak and so was the call. Its strange how people are bashing Torts for having no offense cause of his defensive system. Now we have offense and too many defensive breakdowns. Im liking the direction of the team though and I can see them making a good playoff run.
Totally agree, and i dont care what anyone says, i like Torts, his press conferences are a hoot to watch. He says what a lot of us are thinking. My kids have been telling me about some twitter thing called " Condescending Torts" and they have been hilarious. A few games back when Eminger took a few penalties, the tweet was " What, does he have a book in there he is trying to finish?" Read more...
