The mid to late 90s is when I became a fan. Growing up in a very working class home, I got to go to a few games a year because my friends parents would snag some cheap tickets here and there and take me with them. I had the time of my life in those 11,000 crowds on a Tuesday night vs Carolina.
Iginla made me a fan for life, even before he became a superstar.
The black jersey carries some significant nostalgia because it was the Pedestal jersey that really represents the dark times for me. The horsehead represented... something different I guess.
I'm glad we get to relive that innocent time for me again.
