Well, if anyone is looking for jerk of the year, we have a new entry.
Iginla played for the Penguins, they have a jersey commemorating when he did that, knowing it was a short term thing. Buying a jersey is about being a fan, it isn't about resale value, they aren't buying it hoping to flip it later on at a higher price, it's not real estate.
I used to be a huge jersey nut but I haven't been in a while... it's still cool to see rare jerseys that people got. A St. Louis Blues Gretzky. I love seeing an Iginla #24 jersey from his first couple of seasons.
All jerseys go out of style at some point, but the longer they have these the cooler they become.
They aren't poor suckers, they have a piece of hockey memorabilia that represents when one of their favorite players played for a certain team. Now they'll add a Bruins jersey to that collection potentially.
Suckers!
