Today, Off Wing Opinion posted about the NHL’s plan to start selling pink jerseys as a way to make money off of female fans.

The whole phenomenon of pink sports merchandise has been a bit of a mystery to me because it seems a bit stererotypical and condescending (like marketing pink toolboxes to single women who own homes), but hey, to each her own right? I don’t care one way or another, wear what you like.

Anyway, while I was killing time this evening I surfed over to Chris Creamer’s sportslogos.net, a great site for uniform geeks like me, I saw that the “Buffaslug” logo the Sabres were rumored to debut is going to be official. I put 2 and 2 together and realized that awful thing would seemingly be sold in a pink version too. It then occurred to me that a pink Buffaslug jersey would be an excellent uniform for rookie hazing. Seriously, see what I mean:

Would wearing a dress on a plane trip be worse than that thing? I don’t know, but I think some NHL rookies are going to find out.
