    my barometer? if you can’t pony up for a sweater and show up in a polo, you’re casual. just like the rays. good teams down there; “fans” who don’t deserve them.

    Pfft. I don't care what hockey tradition is,  sweaters and jerseys are for kids.  I think adults look like goofs in them.  Sorry for anyone I insulted.

    Outside a few teams in the US, and I mean a few, most fans of most teams in the US are just very casual hockey fans…and that includes all Southern US teams…people in the south only wanna see ice in their drinks…hehehe.  Most so called hockey fans in Tampa or the southern US don’t know what an icing is or an offside is…lol.   The NHL will always be the 4th among the 4 major sports league…I mean baseball is sooooop exciting with all the cheating that goes on, and what can anyone say about the nba…what a league…tune in for the final five minutes to see who won…sooooo exciting.

    Montreal eliminated both the Jets and Vegas by the same score at the same time of OT on beautiful goals…

    What data or how long did you live in these southern cities to draw this conclusion? Do you poll the fans when you spend an entire season there using a statistically significant sample or is this just purely what's going on in your head?

    Lol.  Your as insecure as your team?  Isn’t your team the one with the dress code in the past, and who knows maybe today…

    you and I know polls are wildly inaccurate.   And why do I need a poll.  When your team sucks they can barely give tickets away…Toronto been sucking for 57 years and you have to give them cash and your right arm to get a ticket…

    I'm not insecure,  but I scoff at sweeping conclusions pulled out of an ass. This goes for sports,  politics,  business and generally everything else

    How does Armia test positive back in March get his double shot June 9th and still supposedly test positive a second time on June 27th?

    I do agree with that, but I still think it’s a barometer. You should at least have a team t-shirt to wear to the game....not a pink polo shirt or a sport coat.

    Laugh at the idea that it should be for kids.  Just silly.  That is like the asshats that insist you can't wear a shirt from the band you are seeing to a concert.  
    Wear whatever you want - including a pink polo or a sports coat, Grandpa.  :lol:.

    You can do what you want,  I just think jerseys are for kids,  regardless of the sport.  But it's sure as hell not a barometer for "fandom".  Team gear is not the same as a jersey.

    Never done that but it is part of fandom.  Not forgetting that fan is short for fanatic, of course.

    You can do what you want,  I just think jerseys are for kids,  regardless of the sport.  But it's sure as hell not a barometer for "fandom".  Team gear is not the same as a jersey.

    Opinion that I think is ridiculous but I'm sure we all have some of those.

    Jerseys on adults is what's ridiculous.  Have I mentioned that?

    For the record I own a 2004 Brad Richards signed game jersey.  He's the friend of a friend.  It's not been off the hangar.
