FNA!!! I like it!!!!

Nope. No. Nay. Never. No more. Nuh-uh.

I will never for the life of me understand why for the last three years the Bruins got a home game on or near St. Patrick's Day. I mean, from a marketing standpoint, perhaps there's another team whose name, logo, colors, and mascot connect with the holiday just a little bit better?

It also seems weird to me to make and market jerseys that aren't in the teams color that only make sense one day of the year. Yes, the WC jerseys will have been worn in only 4 games this year, but they're the right color, and they have a little bit of significance. You buy a green jersey, and it just looks kind of odd wearing it in November.

I can only hope they don't wear this Scottish monstrosity for the actual game...hope it's just for warmups, like they usually are.

At least it's illegal for them to hike up the price of beer on St. Patrick's day. Sláinte!

Nothing says Ireland quite like tartan!

Just awful.

Designed by the House of MacGregor.

From the picture it looks like bites out of the shoulders. I guess they're supposed to be shamrocks.....white shamrocks.

It may be green but it ain't Irish!

 

[Alicat]

It's fugly.

 

[GarbageGoal]

Awful.

 

[stungun]

2016 not 2017 right?

 

[SPB2776]

So they raided Don Cherry's closet for the design? Wow.

I get it...capitalize on the "Everyone's Irish on St. Patrick's Day" theory, but those are pretty atrocious

 

[Fenway]

2016 not 2017 right?

Thanks for catching that

 

[jdz]

[Gee Wally]

You're not alone, Wally. I remember my mother sticking those stamps into that little booklet.

Mine too

Oh and it's ugly

 

[rfournier103]

YIKES...

I've seen some bad unis, but this is REALLY bad. Anyone who actually PAYS for one of these should have his credit cards taken away and a more responsible member of the family should be given control of the finances.

A complete waste in every sense.

 

[TP]

Gross. Thank god they don't wear these in a game or I'd change the channel.

 

[Salem13]

These are going to be everywhere...


...only because they will be 22$ at Marshall's in short order.

 

[sarge88]

Ugly.

I hate green anyway but that's horrible.

 

[Boston BROin]

Coming to Dropkick and Bosstones' shows near you soon!

 

[weaponomega]

I'd use it as a wallpaper on my phone, but I wouldn't wear it.

 

[Dellstrom]

Yeah, it's definitely something.

 

[BigGoalBrad]

I think they are cool in a horrendously ugly way.

Hope they wear them.
