If you have access to the Bruins/Canadiens game that started at 2:00pm today, make sure to check out the the jerseys the Canadiens are wearing.
They were referred to as the ‘Barber Shop’ sweater almost a 100 years ago.

They look a gang of skating Hamburglers.

I wouldn’t be surprised if some people turned the game on, saw these jerseys, and decided to turn it off. I’m still watching though!

“Bruins 2, the inmates 1” was the statement made at teh end of the game. Love it.

The Detroit News’s Dave Dye argues that the uniforms are the ugliest in sports history.
If the red was a little more prominent, I think they’d work very well.

They are nowhere near the ugliest - but possibly the busiest. And definitely the stripiest. Maybe the goal was to hypnotize the Bruins?

I think they should have checked the schedule a little closer before they brought those babies out. Did they think it was a good idea to play their arch rivals in their jammies?

They look much better in black and white.
