Big hair creates 15% more wind-resistance drag.

Other than that it goes on your head, I still have no idea what the stuff is supposed to do.

Today it could be about the smell:

Pretty sure that was just the stink of the Jets and Giants returning home.

Just wondering if anyone really knowing the jerseys could tell me what year this one might be.

I just got a Red #11 for my sister for a Christmas present. It is a CCM jersey, and must be fairly recent because the tag has ccm.com. It is only a 48 and differs slightly from the last few years. The white, horizontal stripe goes to the bottom of the jersey instead of finishing in red again like all of the jerseys in the elynah photos and like the one I got the first day they were available last year.

Now that I think of it, maybe it's from the women's team? I never said I was buying it for a girl, though.

If you got it from the issue room at Teagle, it's most definitely from the women's team. The Men's team has been using Nike jerseys for the last two seasons (current season included). All the non-goalie Men's jerseys have been size 56 for at least the past 8 seasons. The Women's team does use the "Red Wings" blanks for their jerseys (red sleeves with a white stripe on the home whites and white stripe on the bottom hem for the road reds), and as of last season, they still wore CCM jerseys:

I can make up a quick primer for recent Men's jerseys for those who bought some from recent years:

'05-'06: Nike, swoosh centered on chest, stitched-on ECAC logo
'04'-05: CCM, small CCM logo centered on chest
'03-'04: CCM, small CCM logo on left shoulder
'02-'03: identical (as far as I can tell) to '03-'04

There have been subtle lettering changes (height and thickness of lettering as well as subtle serif changes) over the past 10 years. There was a period in the late '90s where they switched to Bauer brand jerseys.

Oh, and congrats on the 100000th hockey forum post.

Thanks for the info. Once I saw it was only a 48 I wondered if it might be a women's jersey. I am glad it is for my sister and not for me. I don't think pads would fit very well if I wore it. My sister is in her 2nd year (and 2nd year ever) playing at Potsdam High School. She asked me if I would get her a jersey after she saw the Chabot jersey (I play net so needed the big cut) I got last year. She will be pretty psyched. I think she will like the women's jersey even more than a men's size since she plans on playing in it.

That's pretty cool. I saw the post mentioning we were close, but I hadn't noticed that I won. Any awards for that? :-)

wouldn't she want a clarkson jersey if she is from that neck of the woods?

cth95 · January 09, 2007, 09:50:00 PM

That would be her second choice. She and my mom go to a lot of the Clarkson women's games. Fortunately, I have had more of an influence on her than the geography. :-D

Maybe she'll be your opposite and go to Cornell after growing up near Clarkson.

How about a free ticket to the Dartmouth game in February?
