What just happened?

[larrivee 3]

What just happened?

The island disappeared!

[VakarLajos 5]

The island disappeared!

If I have to relive the lockout I will NOT be happy.

[PMurphy17 25]

care to jog my memory? have any pictures of the 99 gloves?

couldn't find any late 90's product photos on the net but found these 2 links and the graphics never changed on the pro models.

1990's Winn well gloves

90's Winn Well gloves

Bring back the bright green/yellow "W"!

Haha, the sheep even has a crooked nose and is missing a tooth. :D

Those holders are definitly "unique" they remind me of like a cheap website graphic with the flame and the 8

[Fire0nIce228 1]

Not a fan of the holders, much too gaudy for me. Just play hockey Alex.

[Hockeyman11385 1]

What's up with the small logos on the gloves? Obviously an IIHF rule but just wondering what the reasoning is behind it.

[furlanitalia 1]

From my understanding the IOC is not a fan of any sort of logo from any corporation. Other than on equipment, you don't see many athletes in any sport showing who their sponsors are.

no doubt. hopefully some hockey canada product(thug)) will rock his world (Patrice Cormier style? for not being a robot.

He does "just play hockey." He's one of the top 2-3 players in the world and plays with a passion that 95% of other players do not have. Some people are starting to sound Don Cherry ignorant here.

Speaking of Don Cherry, did anyone see the Sid the Kid V. Alexander the Great Olympians special on NHL Network? There was a clip in there that had Ovie doing a Don Cherry impersonation. Pretty funny.

i agree 100% there, cherry is a tool. just poking fun at the fact that people actually respect him.

I'm kind of liking the look of the front logo on the 8k being covered up with the side logos being bigger, looks pretty cool to me

I can't find a picture but does anyone know what kind of visor Gaborik is using? is it a HejdukSport?

That was freakin hilarious...and he did a pretty good impersonation too. Good for him...challenge the old guard.

But...from the gear sighting perspective...Ovie needs a fashion consultant on those flames on his holders. Red with the Russian flag would have been dirty...but those flames...yech!

[RadioGaGa 162]

Ya gotta love the Finnish snowboarder last night who lifts up his board and shows the Burton logo across the bottom and is pointing at the logo as if to say "thanks to my guys at Burton!"

The Under Armour "UA" is fairly prominent on many skiers unis as well.

[furlanitalia 1]

Just noticed Kessel with an s19... when did he stop using bauer?

[ThePhamtonator 0]

I dont know if I saw it right or not, but the USA team gloves say 'USA' on the cuffs and on the side of the cuffs it had an Easton E. Team USA is being sponsored by Easton?

[A2rhino 63]

That's easy.

Heathen was Aunt Esters name for Fred. Or any evil man for that matter. So maybe get a devil on your TUUKS.

HAHAHAHA!! In the great words of Fred Sanford; YA BIG DUMMY!!

[furlanitalia 1]

No. The guys who wear easton have easton gloves with USA on the cuff because the easton logo is too big for IOC standards. Same with every other piece of equipment that has a smaller logo. Canada guys who wear easton have the same gloves with CANADA on the cuff. But once again, each player is wearing whatever gear they feel like wearing.

[epstud74 24]

That's easy.

I didnt even see that haha

Easton is running the equipment repair for every team and has a very large presence at the Olympics. They will be pushing hard to get a lot of players into their gear.
