I love those Yotes jerseys for nostalgia's sake. Local teams used to wear them all the time for SCAHA and house leagues :D

And lol, there it is, Dubnyk for a 3rd to the Wild.

I disagree. It's truly embarrassing a professional sports team can wear that utter ****.

Yeah I don't feel strongly about them one way or another. I DO think they were really unique in color and pattern in a way that makes lots of sense with local history and I'm usually a big fan of using different colors than Red and Blue and Black and White on everything. To me they just recall a past era because I'm getting old :P

And yeah, Dubnyk will likely be better than what they've been dealing with, but that ignores some major faults with that team, like they're overestimating their D and their centers. They're putting a plastic patch on a submarine.
 
How bad will PHX tank now with M Smith in goal? Looks like they're trying to get into the McDavid sweepstakes.
 
People are really going to **** on Smith now. Well deserved. They're going to see that POS is just TBL's backup goalie with one lucky season.
 
Brodeur looks like an amateur. Just quit dude.

Didn't think anyone could tarnish his own legacy more than when Michael Jordan went to play for the Wizards, but Marty wins the prize.

Did he really believe he was going to beat out Jake Allen as the backup? He couldn't see how this was going to play out once Elliot came off IR? I like Brodeur but Jesus Christ what a stupid move on his part.
 
Whether you liked them or not in their prime years it's embarrassing seeing guys like Brodeur, Kobe and Favre out there in old age.
 
I agree, 2 games for that elbow is terribad but the NHL has done a poor job or at least I think so at how it handles sup discipline.
