Hockeyhead

Well maybe that headline is a bit presumptuous, but what the hell?  The NHL’s last true dynasty team wants to bring back a retro (I’ll call it their best) jersey and the league will not allow it.  This is after all, the same decision makers who allow the Nashville Predators to sport their puke-yellow jersey.

Although they’re not dead, I bet Mike Bossy, Clark Gillies, Bryan Trottier, and Billy Smith are rolling around in their graves over this.  Don’t even bring it up to Denis Potvin, he wore that golf-ball helmet for years because it brought out the best in those jerseys.

I’ve touched on bad jerseys before , and the Isles have had their share of contributions, but Jesus Harold Christ on rubber crutches get someone with some respect for the game to make these decisions. (Hat-Tip Puck Daddy)
