From Spidergoalie: Here is another Giguere:and in a slightly different category but with the same effect, another:Man those were stupid looking all-star jerseys!

Darth Gerbage - Sens gear must have driven Toronto fans nuts...Then Toronto Pads in EdmontonANd Toskala in Toronto gear for the DucksAnd Ducks gear for the FlamesElliott for the AvsSince Turco was posted, it made me remember how awesome this was.

Dan Cloutier when trying to get back to the NHL with the Red Wings a couple of years back. Steve Mason:Red Pants still in practice..Ben Bishop:Leighton:Tim Thomas:(New Team - Same Sofa)

How many goalies the Islanders trade for is amazing. Poor Chris Terreri finished here too. Went back to the Devils that year and ended it with the Isles while the Devils were in the finals with Beezer on the bench.At least they lost.

Not too contrasting, but Felix Potvin wearing his Leafs gear when he first joined the Islanders and wore #55: Dafoe with the Trashers has some generic colored gear. I know he came there after playing for the Bruins, so the silver gear is kinda odd but he was unsigned before joining them: Huet when he was traded to the Caps from the Habs. Habs gear with Caps:

Darcy Wakaluk with a Sabres catch glove still after joining the North Stars. Did break out a fresh set of all white pads and blocker.Jeff Hackett after just joining the Bruins from the Canadiens:And when he joined the Flyers... this card was a complete mess:

John Blue in his all black Bruins gear when he joined the Sabres in 1995:Clint Malarchuck wearing his Capitals colored gear when first joined the Sabres. Note the colored in star on his mask:

Chico Resch after he was traded to the Flyers from the Devils in 1987 still used his Devils red Vics:Guess it's hard to find the necessary curved trees to make new Curtis Curve sticks.First game still had the red Cooper blocker:Eventually got a black faced CCM:

Yeah, that's the story.Hard to find enough navy blue nylon to make his new shells. What were they? Sumo size?

This has happened quite recently!Ben Bishop: Chevy with the Jets and his Red Wings gear:Vernon fresh on the Panters: Craig Anderson wearing Av's gear shortly after trade to Senators last year.Dan Bouchard wearing his old D&R Nordiques gear after trade to Winnipeg.

Brian Ford wearing Nordiques gear with PenguinsSean Burke wearing Coyotes pads after 2nd trade to Philly.John Vanbiesbrouck still wearing Flyers gear after being traded to Devils(while facing the Flyers..wierd!)J.S Giguere Hfd WhalersJocelyn Thibault Nordiques with QMJHL gear

Bob Essensa with Oilers pads on the Yotes:Belfour with Sharks - Note the Blackhawks pants too - didn't clash as much as the Osgood pants:Tom Barasso with the Leafs:Jamie McLennan with thinly hidden Panthers pads:Guy Hebert for his few minutes on the Rangers:

and then we got this....

One of my favorite things to see in the NHL is the odd and rare situations where a goalie joins a new team but is still wearing his old team's gear. We all know NHL goalies go through equipment now faster than ever, so this situation is becoming less and less prevalent.One of the first big name goalies who joined a new team and continued wearing his old team's colored gear was Kelly Hrudey. When he left the Islanders, there weren't many goalies wearing team colored gear yet. So to see his Islanders gear with the Kings was neat - note the Islanders pants peeking out from under the kings shells too:The goalie who wore the most of his old team's gear with his new team had to be Osgood when he joined the Islanders. Guy wore his red helmet and even Red Wings pants with the Islanders jersey:Most recent is Turco:Some other memorables:

For a second there I thought you found something hockey on ESPN. And if you did, I'm sure it's real serious...

Christ. May want eat a club sandwich or two. My 12 year old is about 120.

"Look at this. Yeah, nobody else wears green and cream..."

I would expect a sloooooooow roll out the name then the colors then the uniforms - one at a time. and a mascot

Did they come out with uniforms?
