If you’re in the market for a new NHL sweater you may want to check out NHL.com and select team stores to get one of the new jerseys that will be worn at the All-Star Game on Jan. 25 in Columbus, Ohio, at Nationwide Arena, home of the Columbus Blue Jackets.
The league unveiled a new monochromatic uniform system from Reebok, which features the designated home team wearing black with chrome and elite green accents and the visiting team will wearing white with the neon green accents.

WWE fans will remember Shawn Michaels, aka the Heartbreak Kid and his tag team partner with The Rockers, Marty Janetty and will no doubt get a hearty laugh at this tweet. Although it could be met with sadness with memories of Shawn Michaels giving some “sweet chin music” to his partner at Brutus the Barber Beefcake’s “Barbershop” in 1992.
I don’t think they’re that bad and think the Oregon Ducks football team would think they’re pretty sweet. Then again if you’re tuning into the NHL All-Star Game to watch what the players are wearing rather than seeing the best of the best in action, then you have some real issues and you should seek counseling.
