Get Your (Incorrect) Matt Duchene Gear!
Let's see how long this link will remain active. I'm guessing not long. Kids, if you act now, you can get your ugly Avalanche MATT DUCHENE unipron from the NHL Store. You think Matt's decided to honor David Aebischer instead of Rocket Richard?

For what it's worth, Duchene and John Tavares seem to be the only draftees to have their jereseys up and Tavares' is correct (albeit equally as ugly).

UGGGGHHHH
I’d rather have a Duchene Brampton Battalion sweater. (I might even buy one if I could finsd it).
Duchene Battalion sweaters
To my knowledge the only Duchene jersey’s they sell are game-worn jerseys on the Battalion website via auction (the last auction for Duchene jersey’s ended at the end of June) – generally these auctions go pretty high though.
The 3rd Jersey
Is about the only thing I will wear. Those regular ones clash with even the simplest pair of jeans. It’s time for the Colorado flag colors.

A) the third jersey should be the old rocky jersey
b) Is Duchene going to wear 9?

A) I could live with that
B) I don’t think he’s said, but it’s available

every av would have to grow a stache just like that in order for it to work.

UH
current uniforms are way better then that ugly ass rockies uniform
Pujols takes out "I" in BIG and "A" in MAC, previously considered to be an unyielding, consonant threat
No accounting for taste
my preference goes 1) Avs third, 2) old rockies jersey, 3) a whole lotta meh.
Get rid of the loser point
08-09 Avs- can we decline the penalty?
my adult league
jerseys are the older home avalanche jerseys before they went to reeboks, and personally id rather have the reebok version, and i agree with the old 3rds with colorado on it, but kinda hard to have a team in KC with colorado on it

If I played in an adult league… I would change my name to Scori McGhee and wear the number 42. Because 42 is a funny number.

Not to mention 42 is the answer

42 (forty-two) is the natural number following 41 and preceding 43.
The atomic number of molybdenum.
The angle in degrees for which a rainbow appears.
42 is the title of a song by Philadelphia based jam/electronica band The Disco Biscuits
In Cantonese, 42 sounds like “easy death”.

I disgraced the number 21 during my rec league career, for obvious reasons. I heart Foppa.

Hmm
My favs:
1) Old 3rds
2) Nordiques Blues (gotta admit, those were pretty awesome)
3) Original Avs Whites
4) Rockies Blues (would be higher if the breezers weren’t so hideous)
5) Original Avs Burgundy
6) Nords Whites
7) Rockies Whites

just a simple point here. the rockies became the Jersey devils so the rights to this jersey belong to them. Not that they want them anyway
The avs should trade them the equally useless for us Quebec logo for it.

You know he could go with 6…but that would be craig wolanin’s old #, so that’s bound to be retired. He could go with 19…can’t do that. maybe 29? No that’s Eric Messier’s. I could keep this up all day. So let’s just make him 64.

decided to ban the 99.

Best number choice
00
but NHL doesn’t allow it either.

Thank god they brought the away jersey to the draft. The home laundry is just so intensely ugly.

I wish that the NHL would release what number high draft picks were going to wear. It’d be nice to know for sure what Duchene or Kadri would wear with the big club so that nerds like me could buy their jersey.
ps. I stood next to Duchene at Schwartz’s in Montreal. Didn’t talk to him, he seemed busy, but he seemed like a good kid. Congrats on the pick.

I figured you’d be saving your $$$ for a Colton Orr jersey

Brad Larson is now a big 17…Paul Kariya’s half second stay he was number 9. Do you think I can get a store to change the nameplate on my number 9…even though it’s the old style jersey?
can you? yes. should you? no.

Agree
As much as I hate the unipron, you can’t mix and match eras.

Nah, I’ll keep my Kariya…but I think I am changing my Selanne 3rd to Wolski. Then he’ll promptly be traded
you should change it
to a Tucker

Wore #9 for the longest time. Matt had better knock out a few teeth and grow a mop-top to continue the Ricci look.

Duchene's number
Matt’s been wearing the number 9 paying tribute to hockey legend Maurice Richard… I’d be surprised if he changed his number now.
I saw someone saying they’d love to buy a Brampton Batallion jersey… Here’s the link to both the home and away jersey’s from the OHL’s online store…

River City Sports also has them, but alas no customization.
