Players that just don't look right in another uniform

[Machinehead]

Seeing Brodeur in a Blues jersey looked gross.

And amazing precisely because it was gross

 

[Doughty]

naslund in a rangers uni. yuck

 

[HockeyOfCourse]

Gilmour in a Canadiens jersey.

 

[Brooklanders*]

Also, Tanner Glass in any hockey gear, apparently.

This cracked me up. Good one.

 

[El Nino 22]

I think the history board has two full threads about this.

 

[TheStroker]

Bobby Orr as a Hawk.

 

[Umingmak]

Hull looked even worse in a Coyotes jersey.

Yup. Just plain wrong.

Owen Nolan was another one who looked so wrong in a Coyotes jersey.

 

[oconnor9sean]

Eric Lindros in a Stars jerseys.

 

[Umingmak]

Eric Lindros in a Stars jerseys.

Eric Lindros in anything but a Flyers jersey was terrible.

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Lundqvist would look weird.

Please, don't let it happen

 

[jdz]

Boychuk in an isles jersey

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Eric Lindros in anything but a Flyers jersey was terrible.

Agreed, but at least he played 3 seasons in NY so it became a little easier to see, compared to half a season each in Toronto and Dallas.

 

[MajorLeaf]

Gordie Howe in a Whalers jersey...but man at 51 years old he played 80 games and still got 41 points. Respect.

 

[Church of Toews*]

Richards in a Manchester jersey

 

[General Zodd]

Fat Phil in a Leafs jersey?

 

[Pizza the Hutt]

 

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

In other jersey than Red Wings
Datsyuk
Kronwall
Zetterberg

In other jersey than Capitals
Ovechkin
Bäckström

Just about every big star player on a team will look odd in other jerseys because they played there for so long.

How would Crosby look in a Coyotes jersey? God awful.

 

[Shakey Rustie]

Kipper in a Sharks jersey.

 

[Bones45]

Gretzky in a Rangers jersey made me want to hurl. Just gross.

(anyone really, in a Rangers jersey).

 

[the_fan]

John Scott in any jersey

 

[Eple]

Are there any players that you view that just don't/won't look right in another uniform? Who might in the future look just totally wrong in anything other than they're wearing?

It's very weird for me to see Marian Gaborik in anything other than a Wild jersey (although I know it's been forever since he was with the Wild).

I was just looking at Gaborik's stats the other night and I had completely forgotten he had played for the Blue Jackets before LA.

 

[crasherino]

Boychuk in an isles jersey

You'll get used to it over the next 5 years.

 

[Stephen23]

Brodeur was my first thought when I saw this thread. I thought Ron Francis in a Leafs jersey looked off.

 

[jntarheels]

David Legwand in a Red Wings or Senators jersey

 

[Slick Willy*]

I was just looking at Gaborik's stats the other night and I had completely forgotten he had played for the Blue Jackets before LA.

And the Rangers. Looked so absurd in all of them to me when he left. He was the franchise and really was for even years after he left.
