Dude! What are you doing in that uniform? Part III

Never thought of using twitter to search for rare hockey pictures, but seems like it a great source to find some rare pictures.

Unfortunately, I haven't come across any pics of Klima in a Pens' sweater, although apparently someone out there owns a Klima Penguins jersey that's for sale.

Yeah, I saw the Klima Pens jersey. I remember when they picked him up I thought he might be a good fit there. I was surprised when the Kings moved him for so little cause he had four points in eight games and seemed to be a fit in LA.

Benoit Hogue with Washington in 2001-2002:

Don't think there are any photos of him, but this pre-photoshopped card of Doug Harvey with the Red Wings will have to do for his 2 game stint in 1966-67.

Really unexpected to see him in an Edmonton Jersey!

He had two stints with the Oilers, the team I have a hard time picturing him with is the Flyers.

Newsy Lalonde

As he's playing curling and releasing the "device".

Some things just don't look right... like Montreal Canadiens' Trevor Linden:

Brett Hull was never known for his great conditioning, but he started resembling the Pillsbury Doughboy in his last couple of seasons. All of five games for Phoenix right after the Lockout:

I must admit I had some high hopes for Eric Lindros as a Leaf... Maybe he'd finally stay healthy and thrive in a 'veteran' way, playing for his near-hometown club...? Not so much, as he lasted 33 games. It's not often remembered, however, that Lindros had a decent 20 points in his first 25 games, during which the Leafs were 14-8-3.

Don't know if anyone posted Ducky as a Blue, but here he is (as number 12 instead of his usual number 10). He spent some good years in Buffalo. He made it to the finals as a Flyer. But I almost forgot about his cup of coffee in St. Louis.

Brian Propp

John LeClair

Bill Guerin

2007 San Jose Sharks (16 GP, 8G - 1A - 9P)

Anyone care to guess why Guerin was traded so often? 8 different teams? I never could understand this.

My guess is this: Bill Guerin liked to get paid. Bill Guerin liked to go to market and see what the best deal he could get was. As a result, I think he wasn't interested in re-upping his contracts as they were expiring because he wanted to hit the open market. This meant that he was often dealt away as his contract expired and signed with a new team when he hit the open market.

George Parros, Avalanche.

That second picture is clearly not Bobby Hull.

 

[SharksAttack]

I'm quite sure the HIFK player on the first pic is Bobby's former teammate from WHA Jets Heikki Riihiranta.

Allegedly, but the number placement looks more like #15 or #25.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Forsberg in Nashville always seemed weird

This time with San Jose, it was San Jose wanted to get a boost for the playoffs and getting Guerin from the Blues IIRC.

Considering the rivalries Toronto had with Detroit and Chicago in the old Norris Division, Wendel Clark looked out of place wearing a Red Wing or Blackhawk uniform.

Nedved looked just as strange as a Flyer

Who's that ?

Speaking of the Golden Jet:

Briefly teammates with Mr. Hockey

I don't recall any of this, but by this team I was in HIGH school!

He actually scored his 500th goal with the Blues
