2011: New home and road uniforms for the Canucks. The design is similar to that of the 3rd jersey, and the classic stick-in-rink logo takes over.

A plaid design is featured on the end of the sleeves and hem, resembling the flannel shirt worn by the old Johnny Canuck.

NFL Predictions: Regular Season Recap

The NFL regular season is over, let's take a look back at my weekly predictions. I finished with a winning percentage, picking 156 games correctly, and 100 incorrectly. Yes, 100 is a lot, but 156 is more. It was a wild season in the NFL, many favorites under-performed. My best week was Week 6, when I went 12-2. My worst week came the week prior, Week 5, when I picked 6-8. Overall, I enjoyed picking the games this season. Stay tuned for my playoff picks!

No More Interim

Leslie Frazier has officially been hired as the head coach of the Minnesota Vikings. Frazier becomes the 8th head coach in Vikings history. Personally, I think this is the best move the Vikings could have made. Good luck Coach Frazier!
