Wild unveils third jersey
Posted on August 30th, 2009 – 3:45 PMBy Michael Russo
Burns Boogaard
The Wild unveiled its third jersey today at the State Fair. Enforcer Derek Boogaard donned the new green sweater, which I think looks pretty sharp in person. Not at home, so here is a link to the Wild story and photo gallery.
Boogaard estimates he signed about 800 autographs after.

Awesome!
Yay! It’s officially official! Que the official trolls!
I really dig the ‘M’ that Russo predicted will be used more often. Now that there’s a larger pic I understand why he thought so. The red, vertical star-like decals are a nice touch.
Things are now starting to pick up. The season is on its way! ![]()
I figured out what was bugging me about the picture of Burns… he has his tooth in. I do like that M, it’ll be a nice marketing tool.
Are you guys serious about the M? Take a step back…this might be the worst jersey in the NHL. This a rip off of past Gopher and St. Cloud State jersey’s. This is the NHL, not college hockey. The Wild need to start taking some notes from teams like Pittsburgh that actually put out some cool jersey’s but retain some sort of overall plan.
What they need to do is redo the home green jersey and come up with a new logo. Until then they will be stuck with these so called retro jersey’s.
The New York Rangers can wear retro jerseys, the Wild should not.
Yeah, it’s official.
I will reserve complete judgement (not that it means anything) until I see it in person. But, the script is amateurish and screams ’softball’ to me.
I know I don’t want to see that M plastered all over everything.
I like the jersey color/style tho. Maybe I can glue a road emblem on one to make me happy.
I saw it in person at the same event that Russo was at (yes, Michael, that was my wife and I across the street, looking at you.)
The actual jersey is in the same style as the ASG jersey, with red stars on the sides of the script emblem (not very visible in the picture above). The lettering and numbering are in the same style as the IRR jerseys.
I’ll have to get used to this one, but the combination of the original crest (larger head figure) with this jersey would have made it look much, much cleaner and sharper. I agree with kj.
I thought there was a little more to the M than the leaked pictures. Not what I thought though. I Like the single twill letters and numbers.
I should edit these better…
…the red stars are on the sides of the ‘M’ in the script emblem…
Anyone else think this jersey just screams “high school team”? I’ll just keep my Iron Range Red jersey. . .
Like less each time I see it…
Ugly.
I like the M…….and yes this is a solid jersey….
is it better than the original?
don’t think so, but I have to see it on the ice first to make any decision.
now that this news is out of the way…..
I agree with Walter…Ugly.
Initially I didn’t like it when I saw it unveiled at the State Fair today…but I bought a T-shirt with it on and the more I look at the logo, I like it. I just don’t like the almost all green jerseys.
Too bad these new jerseys are going to make them lose every time they wear them.
/sarcasm
and, for everyone that thinks they’re “high school” or “amateurish,” maybe that’s what all the ridiculous, hyper-parochial “We will only accept a team comprised of sons of Minnesota” attitude that some of our peers in Wild fandom spout ad nauseum have created.
Next time you see/hear some of that garbage, think of the new thirds and tell that hoser where to get off!
Much better than that bland green one they started with. And I think it’s better than the X-mas one they wear now. Some people don’t like it, saying it looks like a high-school jersey. At least it looks like a jersey…it could be some of the abortions the other teams are forced to wear. Go Atlanta Trashers…err…Thrashers.
No one wearing this jersey will be allowed on Thunder Island.
I’m obviously in the minority here, but I like the new logo. Theres just something about the rest of the jersey that makes it looks bad.
I think that if the colors were reversed and it was white with green lettering/numbers it would have looked better, but I guess that the problem with that would have been that third jerseys are worn at home, and whites are the road colors.
Oh yeah, and they probably would have looked like Roseau’s senior league team. Nevermind
Colors are good, but it could have been a lot better. The white stripe at the bottom is too wide and the font they are using is pretty weak. I like the general idea but really poor execution.
Get solid green gloves and the new sweater and socks will look great. Go Beavers.
Would ya get Boogaard a larger jersey already?!!
You know you all claime to be hockey fans and all you care about the jersey.
Come off it! Be glad they get a jersey a lot of other teams haven’t even seen a 2nd jersey let alone a third.
I read these post and I am embarresed to be a part of the state of hockey. If you were a real fan you would accept them no matter what they look like and like them.
What a bunch of morons!
These uniforms are Brutal.
B-R-U-T-A-L.
The green and “beige” are not very nice colors. The “Minnesota” across the chest, boring! I like the Iron Range Red a lot better!
Jersey is sweet-lot better than the christmas one. Old school look baby
You’re right MWF. I mean hockey teams in third world countries don’t get to wear a first jersey, let alone a third one.
I thought only Canadiens spelled claim with an e
THe high res pictures definitely give me a better sense of the jersey. I have to say, I like it. I like simple old school style jersies best and this seems to fit that mold very well. I still like the IRR best, but this is nice too. I need a new sweater… maybe I shall pick up one of these.
What a bunch of morons!
In all seriousness though. Just liking it beacuse you are a fan is not a good argument. It’s all about personal taste. Personally, I like these jersies, and I would wear it. But not everyone is like that. It doesn’t make you a ‘bad fan’ because you don’t like the way the new 3rd jersey looks.
Damnit!!
The State of Hockey deserves to have a better jersey.
Actually we deserve 3 better jerseys, better colors, better logo, and a better team name.
They truly need to start over…Its pathetic they chose the team colors based on what looks good with blue jeans.
The Wild are on such a downward cycle in regards to its fans that it isn’t even funny. To think they felt they needed a mascot? What’s next? Cheerleaders?
Can’ty people incorrectly spell words or do have to be a dictionary to write in these post’s. Give me a break please. I am just tired of people complaining about this jersey that’s all. Sorry if I offend anyone.
Go back to being a Gophers fan. Thats where you apperantly belong why do you care anyways.
Hey GoGophers go back to your Gopher hole. Be glad we have a team.
Butt-ugly. The jersey, not Boogaard. I’d never call anyone six-foot-seven butt-ugly, even if I meant it.
gaaaaaaaay!
One word… ugly
Okay so I have a few more comments
…get rid of the red, this christmas tree look has to go!!!
MN Wild Fan, I was just looking for a laugh from the picture that I linked. My real comments were below the misspelling.
You people have some strange standards. What kind of jersey would you have rather seen? And I am annoyed by all the people that say the Red jersey looks like a Xmas Tree. IMO the greens looks more like Xmas than the IRR’s do. But like I said above… to each his/her own.
…well, it’s better than the christmas tree jersey. I had hoped for a better design than this simple one.
PLEASE get rid of the red jerseys now. I hate that we only have one jersey with the predominant logo on it. The red jersey is stupid, doesn’t match and you can hardly see the logo. I’d go with the new green one, the white and a black one that is the same as the white as the home/away.
Red ones don’t look like a xmas tree, they look like we are the Mighty Minnesota Christmas Presents.
It makes me feel like we are going to suck. I don’t know why, but it just feels like a sucky team jersey. I don’t know… bar team or something.
there are still a lot worse out there. “Bolts” or “Sens” anyone??
wow. i have to admit it. the crystal ball missed this one coming.
So it would seem that in general most of you are not happy with Craig Leipolds decisions when it comes to marketing. (1) Nordy (2) Christmas jersey (3) His new one- The North star flavored ones
Leipold is bored and he is trying to get some action with his new toy.
If he needs something to do he should call Tom Hicks and straighten his ass out
I don’t know why I induldge you MKiA, but the IRR “Xmas Jersey” was around before Leipold was a member of the Wild.
In your Chrystal Ball do you see coach Richards here more then 2 years ?? I have my doubts about how he will work out. I am not willing to say he flat out wont work put, but I have my doubts
Yes you are correct, why dont you have another Hamms beer on me
Sorry MWF, I’m usually not the one to check others’ spelling. It was’nt your opinion that got to me, it was when you called people morons.
I’ve been sensitive to that word ever since that picture(check ATX @ 9:12) was taken, but to be fair, I had alot to drink that day.
why dont you have another Hamms beer on me
YOu don’t have to ask me twice. I perfer the PBR though. Thanks MKiA.
Not a fan of the new jersey. To much green. Was hoping for a black or wheat dominate jersey with Red and Green accenting it. Looks like they saved me the need to purchase another jersey.
Looking forward to the season. Go Wild!
This is a bogus jersey. The thing is third jerseys could be used in an artistic way, but it’s just there to make money. People will buy them for whatever price they ask. There is an early sale at hockey lodges just to create demand for it whether it is worth anything or not. Shirt with Wild logo=$$$ Plain and simple. I am not trying to be negative so think of stuff like this…the 82 Canucks, the Colorado Rockies, early North Stars, the Nordiques, The purple and yellow Kings jerseys, now those were sweet and I will still proudly wear them, they are real works of art.
what we need to do is buy the rights to the “north stars” name back from that broke-a$$ piece of crap tom hicks down in dallas. they can be the dallas stars and we can once again be the minnesota NORTH STARS. problem solved. what the F is a “wild” anyways?! and who were the wunderkinds from the original wild ownership group who settled on “wild” and the stupid logo we have? poor, poor decision. no one in minnesota embraces the “wild” name or logo. 95% of us want the north stars name and “N” logo back someway, somehow. get it done leipold!
I think the franchise was doomed the first day they picked their colors.

So you now own thunder island,just asking.
GophersRoseBowlChamps I am not one of the 95% you are talking about sorry.I don’t think we want the north star name back imo.You sure sound like mkia,that’s something he would say.
Those are socks?! They look more like spandex leggings you’d see a figure skater wear.
What’s next? Cheerleaders?
i hope so.
Was hoping for a black or wheat dominate jersey
i don’t think they could have done the wheat one because it would be too close to the road whites of the opponents. Don’t know that for sure.
again with the christmas tree comments. seriously. it’s like saying a black jersey with white letters makes them look like an oreo cookie.
[…] Boogaard and Brent Burns are nice enough to model the new Wild third […]

POTD?
If the NHL still wore white at home, I’d hope they would’ve gone with a wheat jersey.
Now that I think of it, maybe that’s one of the reasons they switched to wearing ‘darks’ at home and whites on the road?
I’d not mind them replacing the ‘road whites’ with ‘road wheats’.
blah blah blah. If you don’t like it, don’t buy it and move on.
Could they not use wheat with red or green accents?
Kinda like this: (I ripped off the Nashville uniform)
Nice pose Burnsy! LOL.
(I know you read this blog)
With any luck Big Bert on MNF (pre-season for the love of God!) will quell the uprising of newb sweater haters around here.
You sure sound like mkia,that’s something he would say.
Somone’s a fast learner ![]()
Big Bert on MNF? Did I miss something around here or…?
Are not the ‘Queens scheduled to appear on MNF this evening?
WRT, I was just as lost as you were.
Apparently MNF has nothing to do with hockey and “Big Bert” was not referring to Bertuzzi.
Come on guys! Work with me!
1. Lots of noise around here lately
2. Seems like a high number of newbs making said noise (and about pointless things like the jerseys)
3. Football season getting cranked up
4. The Vikes (aka ‘Queens) scheduled, I believe, to appear on Monday Night Football (MNF)this evening.
5. Their “brand new to you” toy being the cause of all the frothing at the mouth I witnessed when I was in the land o’lakes the last week perhaps being able to be a distraction to the aforementioned newbs and their aforementioned silly whining about the silly jersey.
6. If you pronounce “F-a-v-r-e” as though it was spelled “F-a-r-v-e”, then should you not pronounce “B-r-e-t-t” as though it was spelled “B-e-r-t”?
I kind of liked them in person. The shoulder piping should go though. It’s a 3rd jersey, a change of pace jersey. As such, I think it’s one of the better 3rds.
Nick, I thought it was pronounced Bruit.
That was not clever at all Nick. It was just plain lame.
Those 3rds suck arse.
Did anyone see we traded Gopher Patrick White and Dan Rahimi for Christian Erhoff and Lokowich from the SHARKS?!?!?
Loaded for bear on defense. Sucks to be a Wild fan!
Disappointing.
Can the third jersey be any more LAME?
Love the new thirds!! Very nostalgic, very “old school”.
I like the jersey
But for those that hate it here are some better reasons (Top 10)..
It is the…..fault
1. GOP’s
2. Obama’s
3. Union’s (pick your favorite here teachers,carpenters, teamsters, etc.
4. Immigrants
5. BIG OIL
6. Foreign car makers
7. Insurance companies
8. Your old high school coach who didn’t give you enough playing time
9. Police
10. Church’s (pick your favorite religion or denomination)
Ok, hopefully I covered them all.
Next topic PLEASE……
What people don’t seem to remember is that when the Wild were first exploring the 3rd jersey idea, they had a table setup in the Hockey Lodge with different Jerseys. They were asking for everyone’s opinions, and this jersey looks like it was one of them. From what I remember, people didn’t like them then.
The iron range red looks like it was made by grandma, and this one does too. I agree with everyone that says it looks very “softball”, or “high school”.
The original logo on the white jersey is by far the best in the NHL. No other logo has that detail and creativity. With those colors on the white, it looks very sharp, kind of like the blackhawks jerseys.
wonder why they didn’t go purple and gold?
obviously those are the only colors worth having around here. that or maroon and gold i guess
G*: Ich lieben FRE.
Time to pull the trigger?
StoopidMonkey
your grandma was #11 sorry she just missed the cut on my list
seriously, edubs….if you’re going to make a list, at least make it comprehensive! ![]()
Yeah, the Wild blew it when they entered the NHL. They could have just licensed the colors/jerseys from the Rodents and made everyone happy.
VanDoesSuck…no one in Nukland can EVER criticize another NHL team’s jersey:
If the Thrasher’s jersey is an abortion, I’d call this a still birth.
Yeesh, that’s insensitive.
The green is awesome…but….
Hey Leipold, looks like you let the Accounting department design the logo. Nice imagination. If you sacrifice Nordy at center ice before Game 1, we’ll call it even.
I look forward to seeing a hat in this green with the ambiguous beast on the front.
I DON”T LIKE THIS JERSEY!!1 DISBAND THE WILD OR SHOULD I SAY MILD HAHA!!1
Ugh. Good day to avoid the blog. :\
Team Halloween
i always thought philly was team halloween. after all, they are orange and black.
the canadiens remind me of the 4th of july with the red white and blue colors. stupid.
Pewterschmidt: “If you sacrifice Nordy at center ice before Game 1, we’ll call it even.”
Why wait for Game 1? Sacrifice Nerdy (er, Nordy) NOW at the State Fair (you’d draw almost as many as were there Sunday)…
Say NO to mascots!
Ummmm….GoGophers2005….It REALLY sounds like you need to find another NHL hockey team to follow. This one obviously sucks way too much for you.
Green*…I always called ‘em that ‘cuz that jersey is downright scary.
WRT…not all mascots suck. Just the sucky ones.
kj; Here’s where we disagree. All mascots for pro sports teams suck (except the original San Diego Chicken).
Mascots for college teams (Goldy, Bucky Badger, the UMD Bulldog, etc.) are good.
IMO: NHL Hockey teams should not have mascots. Period.
I’m no mascot apologist, but, really, what difference does it make if a team has a mascot?
while answering NINY’s mascot question, here’s another.
what difference does it make if a team has and ice girl squad like the hurricanes have?
IMO, mascots are fine if the team has a mascot type name.
Ducks - well obviously they could have duck.
Senators - easy, check, done
Devils - a devil - hopefully a naughty looking female one…
where was I?
Coyotes - another easy, check, done
Wild - er… um…
Mascots: Also, why is it OK for one league to have mascots but not another?
Ugh, I won’t be buying that ugly piece. I didn’t think we could make a worse uniform that the first green one. I was wrong.
We will be the Oregon Ducks on the NHL.
Kgay, don’t be a hater. Those jersey’s were edgy back then. A lot more than can be said for these new 3rd’s your team has unveiled.
Green*: Hockey doesn’t need ice girls, cheerleaders, or any of that. College, that’s different. As JL said when talking about Sheppard: “This is the N…H…L”
No cheerleaders. No Ice Girls. No dancelines.
Can’t sports fans have one sport where the game is the thing?
I’d trade Nordy for cheerleaders any day.
WRT — I still don’t see the problem with ice girls. Just because you don’t *need* them doesn’t mean they aren’t fun to have around…
but, WRT, how else are they going to justify those ticket prices??
Seriously though, I don’t care about that stuff at all, but it doesn’t make my in-game experience any worse when it’s there.
I’m all for Ice Girls as long as they look like my Brandy
Just because you don’t *need* them doesn’t mean they aren’t fun to have around…
INdeed. If you are going to send someone out on the ice to pick up the hats, it might as well be a hot babe shoowing some cleavage.
Sure, WildinATx, ice girls are fun to have around. So are puppies until they poop all over the place and chew up your furniture thinking, “Tastes like chicken.” I’m sure y’all will have a flock of ‘em at Cedar Park when the Texas Stars start up next month.
When mascots, ice girls, cheerleaders, etc., get in my way of enjoying the game in progress, that’s when I say ‘enough’. I pay to see a hockey game. Don’t you?
VanDoesSuck…
I am not a ‘hater’. I am a ‘loather’. Huge difference.
Edgy? No. Fugly? Yes.
I agree with the Wild Road Tripper. This Nordy business is coming from a bored but creative business owner named Craig Leipold
Kids will get excited about your product because their parents were fired up. Nordy is there for children entertainment value but in the Minnesota Wilds case its not needed.
Many people out there are looking for jobs, so by adding Nordy you create a job. Bandgeek aa Nordy ??
When it becomes adult fun is when you dress Nordy up in a Bertuzzi uniform and you have a fan dent his head with several haymakers outside the visiting teams bench.
Van has an evil side similar to that of Minnesotas evil one who is related to Russo
Lots of Russo Twats today for anyone who cares:
Russostrib: No doubt on Cheechoo, via sources. As for Harding, I think he’ll be here awhile and I’m told he will play a lot more than he typically does
RussostribRT @stew_lin @Russostrib, think the Wild have genuine interest in Cheechoo? How about for Harding?
Russostrib…Bouchard looked awesome, Brunette, 4 months after ACL fix, schooling hi school kids…says mental hurdles still when turning #mnwild #nhl
RussostribAnd maybe most important if you’re a #mnwild fan, Brent Burns looks re-energized. Signs of that debillitation concussion are no more #nhl
There is no doubt that ATX had some Pabst blue ribbons on his mind last night
Blah, we could have done worse. Could have just had Wild on there like the Senators and the Lightning who have “Sens” and “Bolts” on theirs. Or something really bizarre like the NYI Gorton’s Fisherman or the ‘96 STL Trumpeter ones.
Then again, I say BRING BACK THE COOPERALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bulldogs mascot was better when his name was killer, then we got all PC and changed it to Champ.
With as many shots that will be facing our netminders you might want to add 2 more goalies. Lets put the over and under for the amount of 3 on 2’s against the Wild at an avg per game of 7
There is no doubt that ATX had some Pabst blue ribbons on his mind last night
Ders’ no doubt.
INdeed. If you are going to send someone out on the ice to pick up the hats, it might as well be a hot babe shoowing some cleavage.

So are puppies until they poop all over the place and chew up your furniture thinking, “Tastes like chicken.”
still cute and they don’t chew up your furniture if you train them properly. or poo all over the place.
I pay to see a hockey game. Don’t you?
don’t recall this being an either or situation. ice girls are not a substitute but a complement. what hockey are you watching when we are in a TV time out?
When mascots, ice girls, cheerleaders, etc., get in my way of enjoying the game in progress, that’s when I say ‘enough’.
Seriously, this has happened?
Speaking of Ders’ no doubt I will be watching the post-game interviews of the Devils on a regular basis for the entertainment value.
I think the best entertainment value can buy could come from a series if the Wild and Devils play in the cup.
New York Rangers games will be closely watched by Minnesota fans as well
Call me anything you want gay-K…you know you loved those jersey’s. You know it.
It’s really going to be fun in here when the Wild Nation goes ballistic when your losing 3/4 of the time. Meanwhile, in beautiful Vancouver, we will host the Olympics and the Stanley Cup in the same season, that being 2010. Saw Wheat!
I pay to see the hockey game Greenstar. I cant stand sitting in club level or upper level seats as you lose the connection with the game. Upper level is better then the club level
The club has too many distractions
WRT, are you suggesting that the ice girls would “poop all over the place and chew up your furniture thinking, “Tastes like chicken.?
Kage, at what point in the season will you start your annual slaying of management? Fire Fletch now! Hahaha.
I always enjoy fans such as yourself. Anybody must be better than this guy…fire him now. Hahahahaha
Canucks 2010
NiNY: Yes, it has: In Anaheim, ‘Wild Wing’ tried to sit on me at a Ducks game.
At Phoenix, I was hit by a cheerleaders’ pom-pom twice…in the same period.
In Chicago, one of the ‘Ice Girls’ completely wiped out in front of us and was too embarrassed to come down to our end of the United Center the rest of the night.
WRT: Fair enough. I can understand why you have an issue in that case.
Bisker82: No, I wasn’t suggesting that Ice Girls chew up furniture and poop all over the place.
What are you? A Twins staffer??
![]()
WRT = Grumpy Old Man
we are not in phoenix nor anaheim which i’d like to point out are not traditional hockey markets. so, to assume that will happen here, is a stretch, IMHO.
If isn’t then I guess I should expect to pay $12 for a beer at the X since that happened to me in ottawa or, I will get sold raffle tickets by a cute french gal who knew little english, since that happened to me in montreal.
“Those jersey’s were edgy back then.”
They looked like something the alien’s wore in a 1950’s movie.
What a hoser.
I wonder who Vancouver loses to the salary cap ?
VancantWin
Mister Know it all will tell you how it is Dawg
Whether you win or not will depend a great deal on how well you guys can convert all the 3 on 2 man advantages you will have ?
Our success will ride allot on whether
the following guys can produce offense
by the increased freedom.
Johnny
Burns
Zidlicky
Schultz
How much can these guys add to how well the Wild score 5 on 5.
If these guys have success your advantage you have at forwards could be erased.
well, and as a mascot, I could see why you’d “target” (profile?) someone wearing the colors of the visitor during a game for a little ball busting. I think it sort of goes with the territory for being a fan of the other team. But, if they’re bugging WRT during play then that’s not cool, IMO. I would hope Nordy wouldn’t bother a Flames fan, for example, during play either.
Schultz?!?!?!? LOL. What does he have, 3 career goals? LOL, Dogg.
All could be forgiven RE:their existence with a couple rounds of tequila shots and a private showing of my etchings with an ice girl.
I am mascot neutral. Unless it’s Peter Puck. I am very pro Peter Puck.
All could be forgiven RE:their existence with a couple rounds of tequila shots and a private showing of my etchings with an ice girl.
POTD
Schultz can move the puck and score once in a while- He should get more points, not goals G
You don’t have the Defensive upside which could be cause for some concern if the Wild have success with moving the D into the offense. They have the horses
This is the best they can hope for because Vancouver, Detroit, Chicago and San Jose have more offensive production then the Wild. Not allot but enough to call it an advantage
See Mister Van Can Win- The folks of Minnesota have not CURRENTLY done its due diligence in getting an impact scorer with a veteran tag as I have prescribed. I do think they will. I want Modano here for the playoff push
I want Modano here for the playoff push
BREAKING: Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
I want Modano here for the playoff push
You don’t say?
Ruh-roh, we’re teetering on the brink of a troll feeding troll never-ending cycle. Perhaps one of the more intelligent among us can figure out how to tap into this potentially endless supply of energey for use toward some greater good?

That’s not very nice to call Kj a troll. He’s been here for a LONG time.
VanDoesSuck…
There won’t be any venom from me about Fletch. I wanted Smug out and he’s gone.
Remember, Smug wasn’t unbuilt in a day.
You been hangin at the dog park with Alan again? Your posts appear to be authored by him.
Yes, I love those old jerseys.
For me to poop on.
Get rid of the mascot and find a jersy maker that can give you one that you don’t have to change.
Alan is a legend in the trolling business. If I’m sounding like him, I can say that the classes we’re taking from him are paying off.
Thanks for the affirmation Kage!
There won’t be any venom from me about Fletch.
Yeah, RIGHT! Would you like to put a qualifier in there? Or are you going with that? Three years from now, if not sooner, you’ll be bashing that nerd from here to kingdom come. Fans like you are that way. You can’t help it.
MKVN…..the cunuck on the way out is willie…..
unless van can provide the d-man who is leaving….seeing as how he has a good view of everything…
the cunckleheads will be a 5th seed this year….with the flames winning the division….
if we can snag cheech as per the rumors without giving up much, then this team gets 6-7.
if we don’t then it will take a breakout year for shep and pool boy to take us to the playoffs…..rebuilding is rebuilding….
Yes, I love those old jerseys.
For me to poop on.
You poop on old hockey jersey’s? I always knew Minnesotan’s were strange but this one is out there. Way out there. Is there a name for your fetish? Besides gross?
Why qualify it? You won’t be here much beyond tomorrow anyway.
kj…….step away from the ledge…..no!!!!!
it’s not worth it!!!!!!!
unless van can provide the d-man who is leaving….seeing as how he has a good view of everything…
……yes………….you are most likely……correct……….Argon………..Beast………….that P.O.S. Willie Mitchell………….will be………..gone…………….
……………..
Goody: would that be some hot troll on troll action? ewwwwwwwwwwww
argon: “Rebuilding is rebuilding” should become the new Russoville mantra.
kj: you poop on old, lame jerseys? Cake eater.
Why qualify it? You won’t be here much beyond tomorrow anyway.
Ahh, but you’ve put it in writing now so your credibility with the “Community” will be destroyed. I’d throw it in there for good measure, just so you can safely go back on your word.
If you think I’m leaving this place when the season begins, you’ve got another thing comin’. Nothing better than listening to the Chicken Little’s in here. Believe me.
…..you can never use elipses like I!!!!
it is a skill that you shall never master….so says the argonbeast….
Nothing better than listening to the Chicken Little’s in here.
Wow. That’s one sad life, bro.
yeah…..we totally will never trust kj again!
who needs him and his ghey smileys! ![]()
Wow. That’s one sad life, bro.
Just killin’ time bro, just killin’ time during the work day. You Americans have heard of work, right?
Nice Q&A article, paper across the river. Coach Mark Johnson: http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_13236242?nclick_check=1
ATX: thanks for the heads up on russostrib twitter.
You Americans have heard of work, right?
nope. We’re just sitting up here in our ivory tower as the worlds only super power - economically and militarily - watching soap operas and eating candy.
But, as a Blackberry user, I thank you for continuing to keep me in the life to which I am accustomed.
watching soap operas and eating candy.
Sounds aboot right. You’re welcome for BB.

The flaw in your pathetic little post is your assumption that I have any credibility in the first place.
Anyone that uses ghey smileys to the extent that I do, cannot be taken seriously.
Oh, am I glad I stepped away for a while…
Troll day in Russoville!
I LOVE TURTLES! Fire Fletcher now! lol
Im just happy i dont have to swear anymore at skoula and veipoo.
Fitz: You notice the great (to some) Martin Skoula still doesn’t have a job for 2009-10?
And that Veilleux will now play alongside Martin St. Louis in Tampa?
Nothing is as it seems…
I love the new jerseys..mmmm…beer.
There’s a herd of trolls out on Thunder Island. Tyler Bozak, Dennis Douda, and I hunt them sometimes.

Jay,
Let me get this straight. You, a WCCO weekend anchor, and a Leafs prospect hunt trolls on TI.
Ok, makes sense.
Food! A varitable banquet awaits…
I’m gonna have to listen to this Thunder Island song some day.
Ah, the star, dotting the “i,” is a nod to the North Stars.
I like the retro look and how the red is played down. Who designed it?
C’mon guys, seriously…as a lifelong Red Wings fan, I have had the privilege of seeing the best jerseys in the league, and it didn’t account for one Stanley Cup.
As a Wild fan since their inception I have watched ridiculous commentary about jersey’s, native sons, poor coaching ( a hall of fame qualified player and coach no less…). All this about a team that has for the most part represented our state and hockey with dignity and solid play (what has Columbus done?).
The jersey is fine. Support the team, win Cups…wasn’t that long ago when there was no pro game in town, and that is a complete disgrace in the state of hockey. Can’t wait for the season. Far more interested in how Richards is going to infuse offense into a team that is not loaded with top possession type players…the jersey looks a lot better with banners to go with it.
You are the greatest!
What a great site!Thank you
Perfect!Amazing!Super!Thank you very much
