Anyways, while out on a play date last night, I witnessed one of the greatest sights to be seen in pro hockey in decades.
Yes.
The return of the Los Angeles Kings golden sweaters.
It turned a game I wouldn't have given the time of day to, into a game that I watched very closely.
The only downside, if there was one, is that unlike Jonathan Bernier a couple of years ago when the Kings brought out the royal purple sweaters, was that current goalie Jonathan Quick did NOT have a vintage style mask and pads prepared for the event. *
still the same boring silver and black. Looks good on the Raiders, and that's it.
I sure hope to see these wee beauties a few more times in the near future. Since the Kings won easily 5-3 with above pictured Tyler Toffoli scoring his first hat trick, maybe we will.
I know at least Tyler will want to.

Seeing those jerseys.....awesome indeed.
ReplyDeleteIf they had been wearing those when they swept my Rangers it would have been almost bearable.....OK, maybe not but the torture would have been easier to watch. Those are incredible unis.
