Hockey Trash Talk & BS thread

Ahh...I see that now. I suppose I've never had a reason to look at other Team's Jerseys. I wonder if it's an Edmonton based company. Because it doesn't even offer a flamers Authentic. I checked a few different Canadian Teams. Only the Oilers.

Hey....does this work for you?

Mine shows $359.99 Canadian for that Ducks Authentic.

 

I would never pay that much for a jersey! WOW! I don't even care now if mine are authentic or not. They look good enough for me. Most I've paid is 200.

 

Sometimes you can find deals. I have a 2010 Canadian Olympic Team Authentic (White). And I use it at drop-in all the time. Super comfortable. And I got it on a great sale - a couple years after the Olympics.
And I have an Edmonton Oilers used Practice Jersey - that I bought at the Oilers Garage Sale one year. I also use that at drop-in. Love that Jersey. And it was cheaper as well.

 

I love authentic versus replica versus knockoff. Really unless your Jersey had the fight strap it's just a replica missing most of the "authentic" features. It doesn't matter what the store calls it.

I've always just bought from NHL.com, Jersey City, at the game, or at a main line sports store. If it has the name on it I want, comes from one of those sources, and fits right I'm happy.

With Adidas taking over the NHL contract right away I'm on the fence about buying a new Jersey for my Leafs game in Calgary at the end of the month. It'll suck to buy his Jersey just to have to buy it again next year if they make major changes. Then again, I could just buy a Marner jersey now and wait and see what happens. It sucks the "realish" jerseys cost so much.

 

Wow how many jerseys do you have?

 

At least 8. 2 Lethbridge Hurricanes one of which is framed and signed (1st one was a gift the second is a family hierloom signed by Brent Seabrook). 1 Detroit Red Wings (gift from a friend). 2 Calgary Flames (1 gift from brother and 1 from a work event). 3 Toronto Maple Leafs (1 Sundin Koho from the 90s, 1 authentic with fight strap Reebok Edge, 1 Phaneuf Reebok with the C to pissed off Flames fans locally ).

I think I also have a couple of team Canada jerseys but I haven't been able to find them lately. One of them was the yellow one they wore a few years ago at the world's that was awesome IMHO.

 

I have
Oilers home
Oilers away
Wayne
Calgary Hitman
Black Sabath, lol

 

I only paid for 3 of my Jerseys. It'll be 4 with the one I buy this month. I don't wear my authentic game worn Jersey and I'm going to retire my Phaneuf jersey. I just have to decide what player I want on this one.

 

Not sure if you want a Kadri or Mathews? @Sterdog

 

Even my wife, whose just a casual Hockey fan, has 2 Flames jerseys and a Lethbridge Hurricanes Jersey. Womens jerseys are hot when they hug a ladies curves, especially on a tiny lady like my wife .

When you start actually going to a few games a year in buildings where most people have the latest Jersey, which is any NHL/WHL facility in Canada, you end up collecting them. I enjoy wearing the Flames jersey when I go out with customers or friends to a game. There's a sense of comradery to it especially when the whole building is red. That being said when the Leafs are in town I wear Blue of course, especially since it's one of the few times the Sea of Red is ruined by a team locally just as popular as the local team.

 

If I knew @OZ-T personally I'd definitely get a Kadri.

In all seriousness I'm probably thinking either Marner or Matthews but I wouldn't rule out anyone at this point.

 

Where's your Hurricanes Jersey . One jersey I'm missing is a Golden Suns AA one. I played one year with them and I'd love to have one. I should really just ask a coach for one but I'm too chicken shit to hear how much a minor hockey jersey actually costs. I'm guessing they aren't cheap either.

I guess I can add my three Force Pro officiating Jerseys as well to my total. All authentic of course, since I do actually ref . Hockey Canada international crest and Hockey Alberta crests on all three. If we want to get into expensive shit we should talk about skate. My new Bauers this year, S190's which are amazingly light and the trigger blade holder is a no brainer, cost $800 ON SALE .

 

Thanks tilt. I've seen those, but reviews say they're the Indonesian version. I was just wondering if anyone could get their hands on the true authentic Canadian version.

 

I have an Atlanta Flames jersey

 

I have a few older beer league jerseys. I might still have my old Midget Oilers red and black kicking around but it probably won't fit with any equipment on now! I bought new skates two years ago, under 100 buck bauer's at Canadian trash, lol.

 

so...how 'bout them canucks? I for one, a Vancouver fan, kinda like that they're doing badly...management needs to see they need to rebuild properly. though I wish they tanked more last year and drafted Matthews Lol

 

This somewhat dated post might help you understand:

http://boards.sportslogos.net/topic/95037-indonesian-vs-canadian-made-reebok-authentic-nhl-jerseys/

That all being said, getting a real authentic jersey (ie one with the fight strap) will be night on impossible unless you buy one that's game worn or you have a connection to the team. I had to get mine through Chris Veerstegs cousin.

From what's said above I probably have a Edge 1.0, 2.0, and 3.0 jersey for the Leafs lol.

 

I hope you didn't buy that...

 

Did you miss the last 5 pages lol. There was tons of Canucks trash talk and conversation.

Personally if they keep losing they are going to have to blow the team up, and probably the front office soon.
