Pro and semi-pro hockey has such a rich heritage filled with incredible stories. Fortunately, our children and their children will be able to see what we see preserved on digital media.

I thank God for my Bruins 2011 Stanley Cup champions DVD set everyday.

It’ll be a great game. I like the sweater. And I will make it a point to watch.

Is this how Mrs. Kessler broke his foot?

I hope the Canucks start wearing all of their old jerseys, its kind of the tradition to radically change the jersey every ten years

Who needs to make jokes about a Stanley Cup win from 98 years ago? I was just wondering what injury Kesler suffered getting out of that throwback.

The WHL Vancouver Giants did use them a few years back in a one off game as well.

maybe we’ve all watched enough hockey to understand what a centre looks like before a draw?

Looks like Cameron from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.

Wait, no – he’d be wearing a Wings sweater…

Am I the only one who does not understand why one would ever commit to the pose Kesler is doing?

Oh…..hey…..another ugly throwback….
To the “original 6″: Your jerseys are beautiful and classy. Carry on.
To every other team (who don’t seem to get it): Your attempt will (already in may cases “did”) pretty much looks like this. Stop.

Speaking of throwbacks, who’s that doing modelling?

Has Vancouver ever had a decent looking jersey? Over 100 years of horrid uniforms…

EA Canada is bound to have these sweaters in NHL 13 by next week. I’m not that surprised because Vancouver already has around 10 jerseys to choose from

Smooooooth move Vancouver! Trying to disarm the powerhouse Wings by rendering them hysterical…the game’s hard enough without being weak in the knees from laughter [ there are road gangs in Alabama with more tasteful rigging ]. Still, when your rafters offer nothing in the way of championship banners, clinging to threads of history will suffice at needs. Bit of a marketing gaffe though, these jerseys would have fallen off the shelves by the dozens had they waited until Christmas…

Much cooler looking jerseys than those 1994 Canuck jerseys, and even better than those mid 90′s Islanders jerseys (Gorton Fishsticks logo)
