* The player I refer to as babygirl, for Halloween he went as... the two year old little girl with pigtails and the pink dress from Monsters Inc. I haven't seen that film. From the pics we have, where he's sort of in the background, I think his girlfriend went as one of the monsters?
* The Hometown Remix jerseys are out, and it's interesting to see people just not get why some are the way they are. But, they are meant to appeal to specific markets, so the overall NHL fanbase doesn't necessarily get the references. Seattle's are near the top of most lists, but most people out of the area don't get why that alternate logo is so loved.
But the most interesting one to me is the Pen's jersey. People tore into it, and then found out why it's the way it is. They got people walking back statements, deleting videos. It's a pop art design, modeled after Pittsburgh artist Andy Warhol. Pens got people learning about their city's place in art history, and if that isn't nailing the assignment, I don't know what is. I don't like the jersey, but if I was from there I might feel differently. Also, all the people eating their words right now must be delicious.
But also some of the jerseys just suck no matter how you slice them. Some people like once it's explained to them, but some, nope.
Slightly obscured view of the anchor, but you can see the shoulder S logo a bit, and that the cream stripes are textured to show the mountains surrounding the city.
Hard to actually find decent pics, mostly just found the renderings that don't show the texture. In a day or two better pics should be out. The numbers on the bad are in half tone.
