It wasn't the reverse retro jerseys but rather their third sweaters with the old Rockies logo.

Yeah those are beautiful. The shoulder numbers are a bit big but everything else is perfect.

Chris Drury will not be the Pittsburgh Penguins' next general manager.
The New York Rangers assistant GM informed the Penguins on Wednesday that he doesn't want to leave the Rangers or New York City at the moment, according to TSN's Bob McKenzie.
Pittsburgh reportedly got permission to interview Drury recently, along with several other candidates. The former NHL forward was among 20 individuals who originally expressed an interest in the position.
Drury became the Rangers' assistant GM in 2016 and added GM duties for the AHL's Hartford Wolf Pack to his responsibilities the following year. New York hired him as director of player development in 2015.
The Penguins also got the green light to interview Boston Bruins executive director of player personnel John Ferguson Jr. and Colorado Avalanche assistant GM Chris MacFarland.
Longtime Pittsburgh GM Jim Rutherford resigned from the post last week.

That Nordiques tribute is kinda hot though too. It was one of my favorite reverse-retros designs.

The Pittsburgh Penguins are interviewing Ron Hextall for their general manager job Thursday, reports TSN's Darren Dreger.
Hextall was listed as one of 20 reported candidates to be interested in the position following the surprising resignation of Hall of Famer Jim Rutherford.
Hextall currently works in the Los Angeles Kings' front office as a senior advisor. The 56-year-old previously served as the GM of the Philadelphia Flyers from 2014 to 2018. He's responsible for acquiring the majority of the Flyers squad that won the club's first playoff series in eight years last season.
The Penguins were reportedly granted permission to interview Chris Drury, Chris McFarland, and John Ferguson Jr. earlier this week, although Drury withdrew his name from the running Wednesday.

Buffalo Sabres head coach Ralph Krueger tested positive for COVID-19, the team announced Thursday.
Sabres games through at least Feb. 8 have been postponed after forward Taylor Hall and defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen were added to the COVID-19 protocol list.
The Sabres played the New Jersey Devils, who currently have 17 players on the COVID-19 list, on Saturday and Sunday.
Buffalo is reportedly furious with the league and New Jersey for allowing those weekend games to proceed despite the Devils showing signs of an outbreak.
Krueger was hired as head coach in 2019 and has guided the team to a 4-4-2 record so far this season.

Man, I don’t wanna be a Bruins fan, but the last couple years I’ve really enjoyed watching them play. Marchand is a twerp but that Perfection line is something. Definitely a Pasta fan.

It's actually the first time this year that Montreal is down by 2 goals this early in the game (the only other time was the open netter by Calgary)... weird game but they were due for a stinker.
