The Bruins Winter Classic jersey is lame



All due respect to Sean Thornton, who could probably kick my ass just by thinking about it, but these Winter Classic jerseys are fucking weak. The color combo is solid, and I'm cool with yellow being the base of the sweater, but that spoked B looks like a 6 year old drew it. It almost looks like a caricature. I'm all for the throwback look, in fact I prefer it given the occasion, but they screwed with the logo in a big way. I know there's a good deal of history wrapped up in the logo (courtesy of Puck Daddy: "The crest featured on the sweater is a variation on the club's "original'" spoked-B that debuted as part of the organization's 25th Anniversary season in 1949."), but the thing is still ugly as all hell. I guarantee bandwagon B's fans will flock to the stores to buy this shit, but if you're a real fan I can't see how you're not disappointed that this is what they came up with with what I'm sure was weeks — if not months — of preparation.
