oh.. and let me add that the habs practice jersey is freakin hot :drool:

im looking at roughly $350 on customized habs jersies alone :lol:

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 11/19/2007, 4:33 pm

hah!

Theres a lot of jerseys I want. I'd spend a small fortune on them. :nod:

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 11/19/2007, 4:33 pm

And are they going to show the retirement ceremony on tv?

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 11/19/2007, 4:39 pm

thats only for 2 jersies haha
i just checked.. theres at least another 70 bucks on hats too :nod:

1 toque and 2 ball caps :nod:

and thats just the habs ones i want
theres also the team canada, team finland (koivu #11 + C), a halifax mooseheads, rimouski oceanic, an old school sharks jersey, the nucks had a really awesome one back in the day but they got rid of it and i want that too.. an old school oil jersey w/ the blue and the orange from back in the gretz era, the flames new one is actually cool and i love iggy and phaneuf :lol:

(oddly enough.. both edmonton boys), an av's #19 sakic jersey, the sens 3rd jersey (not sure if they use it anymore), a rags #99 gretz jersey since i saw gretz play for them in person :love:

and as far as i can remember.. thats it

but dont quote me on that cause i know im forgetting something :lol:

i already have 2 habs jerseys (old ccm that doesnt fit, and the old starter one) and 1 team canada jersey :love:

but i want my next one to be an authentic habs jersey w/ koivu, #11 and the C and the official practice jersey cuz as i said, they look sweet :nod:

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 11/19/2007, 5:06 pm

ive come to realize im torn between 3 hats

also the jerseys mentioned were only for me.. i also now want to get the canadiens pet jersey, a jersey for my non-existent significant other (if she doesnt exist.. is she still significant?) and my extremely non-existent kids :nod:

oh and the kids hat cuz my kids are gonna be cool like that :nod:

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 11/19/2007, 5:07 pm

and the pub table, bar stools, pint glasses, and a blanket to go with the pillow joey already bought me :love:

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 11/19/2007, 6:19 pm

Theres too many jerseys for me to mention. :nod:

Like half of the sens (big line obviously) plus a few oilers and a few avs and a flyers. Plus oiler oldies like Gretz, Mess, Coffey etc.

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 11/19/2007, 6:30 pm

i could actually see myself seriously dropping around 2-3 grand on jerseys alone :lol:

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 11/19/2007, 9:09 pm

Same! Cause you know you have to buy the home and away jerseys, plus the third one. :nod:

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 11/20/2007, 8:44 am

habs dont have a third anymore and im not that much of a fan of the habs home so im only getting a habs away authentic and the practice jersey.. the rest of the money however is on non-habs jerseys :lol:

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 11/20/2007, 12:12 pm

Fucking hell! I couldn't watch the ceremony on tv because it was blacked out in my area. Bitches! :mad:

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 11/20/2007, 12:17 pm

why would they black it out in a lesbian wedding if the game was between montreal and ottawa and youre no where near either?!
plus the game was sold out
its the motha fuckin montreal

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 11/20/2007, 2:06 pm

haha my all-star ballot was great
4 habs and 2 sens from the east
and 4 flames and 2 oilers from the west

specifically, alfie, koivu, kovalev, markov, phillips and huet from the east and iginla, hemsky, cogs, phaneuf, reghyr and kipper from the west..
man i didnt realize the flames had so many guys i actually like :lol:

hell i even went to school with tanguay and i didnt vote for him cause hemsky + iginla would be amazing to watch :drool:

that and i wanted one of the kids out of gagner, cogliano, kane or toews and i figured cogs would get the least votes so i voted for him :nod:

hell i couldve even went with devon setogucchi in san jose who played for the saskatoon blades when i was there.. good kid.. like really good :nod:

Johnny · Post by **Johnny** » 11/21/2007, 9:49 am

Hemsky? Really? :O

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 11/21/2007, 9:56 am

hemmer's one of the best pure passers in the NHL and iggy has one of the best shots in the nhl
actually the best line ever would be hemmer, crosby and iggy or iggy, crosby and lecavalier or some combination of those 4 guys
