I think we've all learned a lot here today.<BR/><BR/>I will certainly keep an ear to the ground for the latest news on the potential change in Rangers' uniform. I would imagine Jagr might make some small changes to the sort of salute he does when he scores, as well. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10883854503294092142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173487087895437639.post-69391536581376233492008-05-07T16:50:00.000-04:002008-05-07T16:50:00.000-04:00Well, you guys just don't get it!

They used to call these "team captains" either "Kapitän" or "SpielFÜHRER" in Germany, at least until the mid-seventies (somewhere the term "SpielFÜHRER" got lost, much to the chagrin of Helmut Kohl). And being from the bordering Czech Republic, Jaromir may just have taken that old German term a tad too seriously...<BR/>BTW: I heard some rumors that the Rangers will sport new jersey colors next season, provided Jaromir re-signs with the team. They shall be henceforth known as "Broadway Brownshirts"...krautballhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15834888329971007896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173487087895437639.post-28188461977052986022008-05-07T14:43:00.000-04:002008-05-07T14:43:00.000-04:00Chyna- G-AH!
