Jersey Regrets

[renny]

I have a Retro Roman Horak Jersey boys! It's even signed lol, but I don't regret it at all. I never regret my jerseys.

#47 Baertschi Retro Jersey. The heat press job on it was terrible as well.

Thats insult to injury.

Jason Weimer jersey must be worth a fortune judging by that signed hat that was in the Buy/Sell forum a while ago.

Can't regret that!

I have a Phaneuf and a JBo, don't really regret either.

I have a Loob jersey that my parents bought me during the 86 run. Definitely no regrets there, and my wife wears it to retro nights and also to any 80s theme parties we get invited to.

I bought a Val Bure jersey after one of his first games after the trade. He scored a hat trick against the oilers at home at a game I attended and I drunkenly bought his jersey. Not huge regrets.

A bunch of Iggy jerseys. I regret none of them, except maybe the Iggy Bruins jersey a little bit... I doubt I'll find a reason to wear that again any time soon. And I won't wear the Iggy Heritage one very often either, but I'll continue to pull it out for a game once a year or so.

I also have a bunch of blank jerseys. It's hard for me to get the name and number of players that are 20 years younger than me... just feels kind of weird. If I was getting one though I would lean toward one of the defensemen instead of a flashy forward. Russell, Wideman, Gio or Brodie, probably in that order.

There are some funny ones in here.

I was a day away from buying a Ference jersey when he was traded. I ended up getting a blank retro instead and decided that any future named jerseys would be for international teams where the player is never traded.

Starting to regret the Bieksa and Dorsett jerseys I bought Saturday morning.

Mine's a retro #51, hahah.

I've also got these gems:

Sven #47 retro (being signed kinda saves this one)
Sven #47 Abbotsford Heat
Galliardi #39 home (hoping Bennett switches in the future)
Bouwmeester #4 retro

I'd also ice a decent lineup with my traded players.

I cringe just typing that.

As long as the name bar isn't glued on, that would be easy to change to Bouma.

I can now understand why so many people were upset about the Sven trade. So many jerseys became obsolete.

I jersey fouled and did a retro 21. I love the retro one and figured he would have worn that combo at least once. It wasn't even 2 weeks after I got the jersey back that he was traded. Bummer. I wouldn't change it though, first jersey with a name on it and since he plays in Russia and not Edmonton, no biggie.

Perry Berezan did tell me there was a great Flames alumni guy who I could swap that name bar out for at the Flames Fest. Never told me who that fellow was....

I bought a #26 Reichel jersey for super cheap when he was over in Europe that one season thinking that he would come back. He did come back, but was traded partway through that season.

Then Michael Nylander changed his number to 26 so I got the namebar changed on it to 'Nylander'. He got traded literally two days later.

Derek Morris #53 black horsehead jersey.

Saint John Flames #47 Giguere jersey (I was debating between Giguere and St. Louis. Should have got St. Louis)

White Rob Niedermayer jersey on opening night 01-02 season.

Red Steve Reinprecht which I got in the season ticket holder pre-order when the jersey was launched (so the lettering is black).

The other Flames jerseys I have are great. Housley pedestal, Iginla pro, pedestal with "2000" patch and Lanny McDonald.

I have a Warrener black and red #4. No regrets there! Bought it at a Sabres game for stupid cheap after he was already in Calgary.

Both a Phaneuf and a Bouwmeester! Gave the Phaneuf to a guy at work and he spent an hour taking the name off. He's going to put his own name on the back. Still have the Bouwmeester in the closet.

The Flames should have a jersey exchange, bring in your old jersey for 30% off a new jersey or something.

I have 3 Iggy's a 2004 cup runner with patch, the newer style, and a heritage classic. The wife bought a Johnny Hockey for my birthday and I'd like to treat myself to a nice Bennett alternate/third jersey.

I've got a white Phaneuf jersey from a few years ago. I'd never had a jersey with a name and number on it before so when I saw itson sale I thought it would be pretty cool...

Jerseys I dont have but would absolutely love to have are Wilm, Titov, and Donovan. For current Flames I would probably go with a Monohan.

Bärtschi #47 Heat jersey.. Given to brother in law

Authentic iginla pens jersey .. Ugh lol

Ex bought me a cammi #93 without realizing I had a cammi #13 (which should become a Gaudreau soon, not sure if they're the same as our current homes tho?)

Have a blank home and retro I want to get done, likely Hudler and Brodie

[calgarywinning]

Gotta be the Baertschi jersey I bought for half price for my son!

[Tinordi]

There's a conspicuous lack of atonement from the Iginla Penguins Jersey boys in this thread.

Come on fess up to that terrible decision...
