The White Skates Return!

[dmiles2186]

Sorry, I've made a lot of threads lately, but this is worth noting. David Perron is bringing the white skates back. No word on backwards hats in the locker room.

David Perron is in town, and so are his whites skates. The Blues forward confirmed that he does plan to wear the white skates - the ones that made so many headlines three years ago - this season.

Perron said that he doesn't want his skate color to become a big story, but with former coach Andy Murray's famous disapproval of Perron's white skates when he broke into the league, it seems like Perron has no choice in this one.

They will catch fans' attention.

"Reebok came to me and they wanted me to try (the white skates)," Perron said. "So far, I've got them. We'll see. I don't think it makes a difference if your skates are white or silver or black or gray. You can look in the room; they're all different callers. Obviously they're a little different, but I think it's fun to be different."

Those pretty white skates will get scuffed up...Perron will then take his rage out and score 84 goals.

The skates aren't all white...Their probably the new RBK 11Ks

The NHL isn't exactly the NBA. There may be a few guys from other teams who look at that as dissing the game and take a run at Perry! I'm all for it but he better score his ass off or the fans will be all over him!

What color skates does A. Nigro wear?

The technology that went into their design is crazy. I was reading about them in an issue of THN about 6 weeks back and I bet even I could skate with them.

Good, maybe he'll be the one Blue to score this season.

Air McKegney's. Why you so hung up on color, man?

[ohio BLUES]

You can look in the room; they're all different callers.

Uh, what?

[Guppy]

I could care less about what color skates guys have. I hate to sound like Al Davis....just win

Why are white skates even a big deal?
This isn't anything new.

Hell...Federov wore them back when he was with Detroit.

A young goon attack gets a job on a sheep ranch.

The first night he was there, the other cowboys there woke him up. "Get up, boy," they said.
"It's time for your initiation!"
Initiation! But how bad could it be, he thought to himself. Afterall, they were a bunch of sheep
tenders!
So they took goon out back of the sheep-pen, and he saw all the other
guys lined up waiting. "Go on,"
they said, "Boy, it's time you showed you were a REAL man!"
"Huh?" he said.
"That's right," they said, pointing at the sheep, "Show us you're a real
man."
Oh, no, goon thought, they couldn't possibly want him to...but then he
really needed the job. So he
squared his shoulders and went and picked out a sheep. He led it behind
the shed. After a moment,
the other were rewarded by the sounds of, "Baaaa BAAAA..."
A couple of minutes later goon came back out, buttoning his pants,
to see the other guys all
laughing at him.
Oh, great, he thought, now I've really been had. "So, what?" he said,
"Was I not supposed to screw the sheep?" "That's not it," they laughed. "It's just that you picked out an ugly
one."

I was sorely disappointed when I realized this thread was about a pair of white skates and not the 80's hair metal band...

I have those skates in roller in my shed right now. Have always wanted to swap the wheels for blades and wear them on the ice...

[Krigloch the Furious]

I have those also. Awesome skates
Always wanted them for ice
