The Unipron is Still There

Just to give you an idea of how much I dislike the new logo on the shoulders, this slide had to be included.

I’ve been trying to get a yeti foot jersey for the past month. I finally found one that I wanted, Gabe Landeskog with the Captain’s C, but the NHL store has now sent me two jerseys without the “C” on it.

These jerseys are going to go out of commission soon, so it’s time to stock up ahead of the new contract with Adidas.

Also, have you guys ever played any of the EA Sports NHL games? Mike “Doc” Emrick still “announces” the games, and the past two years he still says — at the beginning of any game the Avs are involved in — “featuring a team with a yeti foot imprint on the shoulder,” or something along those lines.

The yeti foot should still be there, even if the jerseys look awful as aprons. I really have nothing else to say on the matter. Let’s move onto the next jersey on this list.
