Right Team, Wrong Uniform

[c9777666]

In the spirit of the 'Dude, What Are You Doing in that Uniform?' and 'Rare Jersey Matchup' threads on HFBoards, I decided to try a new twist to those threads- players on their team they're known for, but not a uniform they are associated with.

Examples:

Shea Weber in the original Nashville uniform, which he only wore for 1.5 seasons

Jaromir Jagr's last season in Pittsburgh was also when the Pens debuted that jersey, planting the seeds for the return of the skating Penguin logo

He looks much better wearing #39 though.

I always love your profile picture. Obviously that's Sundin and Belfour. But what is the context of the picture? They seem to be celebrating, I'm just wondering what it is. The won one playoff series together and that was against Ottawa in 2004. Anyway, always wondered that about your picture. Or is that just at a bar?

Knowing Belfour? That could have been literally any time. He didn't need an excuse to "celebrate" with a drink or twelve.

Getzlaf

Näslund

 

[Inkling]

Alfredsson in the original Senators road uniform (looks like it anyway). They never wore it during his time in Ottawa so I assume it was probably pre-season in his rookie year. They used to recycle jerseys from previous years in the pre-season.

Brilliant thread.

Joe Nieuwendyk on CGY in the mid 90s

Jarome Iginla on CGY, mid/late 90s

Pat Lafontaine, Buffalo in 96-97

Alexei Yashin, red Sens jersey, (probably 99-00?)

Olaf Kolzig, Caps, early 90s

Ray Bourque, Winnie the Pooh jersey (and to think, I loved those jerseys growing up...)

Peter Forsberg 2011

Scott Niedermayer 2005-06

Patrick Marleau 1997-98

 

[Soundgarden]

Some interesting different #s here too, had no idea Iggy wore 24 or Marleau wore 14.
