Anybody can tell a story but this guy says the "Mike Keenan vetoed the jerseys" thing isn't true. http://www.ebay.com/itm/St-Louis-Bl...aEAAOSwoBtW4~cN It has to at least be true that they didn't actually make enough for the whole team. Not even Mike Keenan would have been able to stop them from wearing it, and the unused ones would have hit the collector's market for huge money.

If Chicago needs another cup to get there, LA can't get there this year. Either way you slice it, they don't both have dynasty status on the line. One or the other does, depending on who you ask.

If 3 consecutive wins is the metric, the only dynasties in NHL history are: 47-49 Leafs 56-60 Habs 62-64 Leafs 76-79 Habs 80-83 Islanders There's your claim to fame Islanders, you got the last dynasty in NHL history.

Schremp Howard posted:The Blues were going to have a mascot named COOL CAT but that got scrapped when Keenan vetoed those amazing alternate jerseys in the 90s. So once Kreider injures Fleury we're back to facing Zatkoff? Funny story, I meant to type Fleury but typed Price instead! Who can keep up with all the goalies Kreider has injured?

^^^ should include the Devils. I knew using the word dynasty might bring out the nerds, but I thought, "No, maybe this time will be different." Chicago's trying to retain its "real good" status. LA is trying to achieve "real good" status. And NBC will probably use the word dynasty, ya dummies.

two in a row isn't a dynasty and the Red Wings were 1-4 in the playoffs against the two other dominant teams of that era (Devils and Avalanche) from 95-00.

Sorry wrong, you got to three cup finals in four years and set the record for most wins in a season and have like 7 hall of famers on your roster you're a dynasty (spikes football) 2000-2003 Devils should be on there though I admit.

Is tearing it down close enough? Because next year is the last season of the Joe. But instead of Seattle they're just moving a few blocks away.
