    TXHT Jersey Share – The Habs Outdoors

    Today in TXHT Jersey Share we take a look at our third straight NHL Winter Classic jersey with the Montreal Canadiens.

    For the 2016 NHL Winter Classic it saw the Boston Bruins host the Canadiens at Gillette Stadium. For the Canadiens they did this white ensemble which is based off of their 1940’s look, with the crest being from the 1920’s. The shade of blue that is used is from 1909, and the globes on the sleeves are from 1925. Overall a really cool jersey honoring different aspects of the Canadiens franchise history.

    TXHT Jersey Share – Our Turn to Host the Outdoors

    Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls it’s now our turn to host the great outdoors as we take a look at the Washington Capitals 2015 Winter Classic jersey.

    For the second foray into the Winter Classic the Capitals would host the Chicago Blackhawks at Nationals Park, and they would bring us a jersey that was inspired by past teams before the Capitals came into existence.

    This was a cool jersey for the Capitals which mixed a few things to great success, and for the names and numbers on the backs the material they used for the patches had a more fabric feel to them which was cool.

     

    Fun fact for these jerseys. This marked the first time Reebok did not sell authentics, and the replicas did not have the Winter Classic patch on them. You had to by the patch separately which was a massive disservice by Reebok. Also the “W” on the crest was not your typical patch and was, and still is, very crinkly. Still a cool jersey though.

    TXHT Jersey Share – Taking it Outdoors

    In today’s edition of TXHT Jersey Share we head outdoors for the 2011 NHL Winter Classic and the beautiful jersey the Washington Capitals brought back to life.

    When it was announced that the Pittsburgh Penguins were going to host their long time rival Capitals for the 2011 Winter Classic at Heinz Field many began to speculate what jersey the Capitals could be wearing for the game. Given the first few years were throwbacks to what was worn in the past or a take on what was part of that cities history it was all but expected the bring back theor retro red, white, and blue jerseys for the Classic. That became all but confirmed when the logos for the two teams were unveiled and then at Fan Fest the official unveiling of the jerseys by Alex Ovechkin, Yvon Labre, and Rod Langway.

     

    It’s a very beautiful jersey that works with today’s team, and by this jersey being introduced for the Classic it allowed it to come back full time as an alternate, first as the retro white, then as the retro red.

    TXHT Jersey Share – The Gamer Tag

    In today’s edition of the TXHT Jersey Share series we’re going to have some fun as we take a look at the Washington Capitals home jersey that was introduced in the summer of 2007.

    So funny story about this jersey. I actually won it at a Capitals game the first season they wore these new Reebok jerseys, but that’s not the funny part. the funny part is this. So the Capitals at the time were promoting this new credit card called the “Revolution” Credit Card, or at least that’s what I remember the name of it was *laughs*, and they were running a contest for those who registered for the card. I applied and was declined the card (which was fine by me), but it entered me for this jersey. Well as I already mentioned, I won, but because I was the fourth and final entrant to enter and I think they just felt bad for me so they gave it to me like 10 minutes after I got back to my seats *laugh*. That was hilarious.

    Now for the back of the jersey this was the first time I ever got a jersey customized and I chose to do my gamer tag which is xtremist75. Obviously one so called Capitals “Fan” blog took a picture of me without my knowledge to make fun of this as a “jersey foul”, but honestly it was me just doing my gamer tag. And cool fact here. X75 is xtremist75 abbreviated, so now you know how X75 Productions got it’s name.

    TXHT Jersey Share – The Black Dome

    Welcome to another edition the TXHT Jersey Share series as today we take a look at the Black Dome jersey of the Washington Capitals.

     

    Capitals Home Black 2005.jpg

     

    Originally introduced as the Capitals first ever alternate jersey during the 1997-98 season, it would remain their alternate until the end of the 1999-2000 season. During those three season the nameplate on the back was curved. When the Capitals made the change to have this jersey replace the Blue Eagle unifom at the start of the 2000-01 season the nameplate would be straightened to match the Capitals then home white jersey.

    TXHT Jersey Share – The White Eagle

    Ladies and Gentlemen welcome to another edition of TXHT Jersey Share. Today we bring to you another jersey in the Washington Capitals history.

    The White Eagle jersey was first introduced in the summer of 1995 as part of their rebrand, but it was similar to the Blue Eagle jersey that had the word “CAPITALS” on the front of the jersey. However, going into the 1997-98 season the team removed the woodmark from their then home jersey. The Capitals would continue to wear this uniform all the way to the end of the 2006-07 season to which then they would rebrand back to the red white and blue (navy) that they have been with to this day.

    TXHT Jersey Share – Brass Bonanza

    It’s time to tune up the band and play some “Brass Bonanza” as the TXHT Jersey Share series looks at the Hartford Whalers jersey that was brought back this past season by the Carolina Hurricanes for Whalers Night.

     

    Whalers 2018 Front

     

    This beauty of a jersey was brought back by the Hurricanes for two games of the 2018-19 season to pay homage to their history before moving to North Carolina in 1997.

     

    Whalers 2018 Back

     

    I had two opportunities to obtain this jersey. The first time when Shaggy, Dickson, and I went to Raleigh for Whalers Night against the Boston Bruins, and again a few months later when our friends at Cool Hockey made them available. I obviously went the Cool Hockey route given how I wanted to get the jersey customized with my name and number on the back, which was not an option at the game back in December. Really awesome jersey, and another quality job by our friends at Cool Hockey.

    TXHT Jersey Share takes on the Quack Attack!!

     

    D5 Ducks Front

     

    Don’t lie. You know this is cool. We all grew up watch the Mighty Ducks movies as kids and this was the first real Ducks jersey we ever saw because when the first movie came out the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim didn’t exist yet.

     

    D5 Ducks Back

     

    This jersey after a lot of searching I found on Mad Bros, and was greatly surprised by the selection they had on their website. Not only did they have the D5 Ducks jerseys, but also jerseys from SlapShot, Mystery Alaska, and at one point Miracle. The people at Mad Bros did a great job, and everything is handstitched. I’ve worn it in many games in games that I have played in and it has stood up to the rigors of playing. Definitely recommended to go to Mad Bros if you’re interested in getting a D5 Ducks jersey.

    TXHT Jersey Share – Olie the All Star

    Ladies and Gentlemen the TXHT Jersey Share series is going international once again, this time with Washington Capitals legend Olaf Kolzig’s 1998 World All Star jersey.

     

    Kolzig World AS White 1998 Front

     

    So for those who didn’t know the NHL went with a World versus North America format for the 1998 All Star Game in celebration of the first time the NHL was sending the players to the Olympics (which was a couple weeks after the All Star Break and was a total disaster), and it actually featured these really cool jerseys.

     

    Kolzig World AS White 1998 Back

     

    For the front of the jerseys it would be the NHL crest along with the respective country flag that player is from (or represents). For Kolzig it would be Germany for whom he has citizenship with and was representing at the Olympics shortly after the All Star Break. On the shoulders would be the 1998 All Star patch and the Capitals logo. The White jersey with Navy and Silver blends real smoothly, and makes for a nice design for a jersey.

    TXHT Jersey Share – The Mighty Duck

    Today in TXHT Jersey Share we will be taking a look at the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim’s original jersey from their beginning years in the NHL.

     

    Mighty Ducks Away Purple 1996.jpg

     

    This is a really cool jersey as it was one of the first jerseys to really shake things up on how jerseys are designed. Plus the color scheme that was used is very unique and one that is missed to this day (sorry Anaheim, but you screwed the pooch with your 25th Anniversary jersey). Once again like with the San Jose Sharks jersey, this was one that I had a as kid, and replaced once it became available again. Definitely a cool jersey.
