Winnipeg-Chicago connection. Chicago Blackhawk's Captain, Jonathan Toews and both Alternate Captains, Patrick Sharp and Duncan Keith, all born in Winnipeg.

Billy Mosienko, who still holds the NHL record for the fastest three goals in 21 seconds, Ab McDonald, who scored the winning goal when Chicago won the Cup back in 1961 and Rudy Pilous, who coached the 1961 team, also Winnipegers.

That's just my Winnipeg pride showing.

Maybe if they had better water they'd still have a team there.

I believe it is the water.... the fact that much of it is frozen. Unlike say... Mexico, where we don't see so many great hockey players come from.

Unfortunately in the Gulf of Mexico you don't see much water these days. :mad:

Evolver, can you make it a little bigger? I can't quite make it out unless I'm within three miles of it.

Really? I always thought it was the worst.


To each his own. I've always had an appreciation for the Peg sweater. I also like... and miss this one:

and this one:

I think i like them even more now that they're gone. I'm nostalgic.

Oh, I totally agree with you on the Nords jersey (fleur de lie border is awesome) and the Whalers (my favorite jersey of all time), I just think the Jets one is way too simple. I feel like I could make it in about 10 minutes in Illustrator. :)

I have a Shanahan Whalers jersey #94. I break it out every once in a while when the Hurricanes come to town.

well, their drafting strategy going forward should be clear.
If you have been baptized in the Assiniboine, you make the cut.

(welcome to the board, mbhhofr. good to see you made the jump)

I always felt the Whalers jersey was overrated for as popular as it seems to be. I also find it odd that every team that has the name Whalers has a logo pertaining to whales, but a whaler is not a whale, it's a boat used to kill them.


I do like Quebec's jersey though.

Some will hate me for this but as I have said before I never liked the Black Hawks logo.

It just doesn't appeal to me. OK, time to duck.
