My First NHL Jersey

This is the year that I get my first NHL Jersey.  I have been a fan of the NHL since I was a kid in the late 70’s, early 80’s.  I tried to watch games as often as I could.  Now later in life I am in my 30’s and my son has been playing youth ice hockey for about 5 years.  We go to all of the local ECHL Florida Everblades games that we can.  We also try to get to the NHL Florida Panthers and Tampa bay Lightning games that we can.

My son has had his share of Hockey Jerseys.  Some have been his own becouse of playing on different travling teams.  This year its my turn.  I am looking to get a Alexander Ovechkin #8 red jersey.  Yeah he is the man.  I’m not just jumping on the band wagon.  I did not have a favorite NHL team until the 07/08 season.  I started following the Capitals at the beging of the year and I too threw a fit when they could not get it done in the play-offs but what can you do right.

Let me kow what Hockey Jerseys you plan on getting this year.  Love to hear about it.
