Sharks v Isles tonight.

Should be a win tonight for the Isles and a good W to add to their record. Sharks have been tough to watch to start the season.
Edric Blight
WHOOOO ME?
Exactly. Hopefully we put the Sharks 0-5-0 to start out their season after tonight lol.

They should be able to pull it off tonight. Vlasic has been good for the Sharks but that’s about it.
Edric Blight
WHOOOO ME?
Exactly. Those Sharks don't have much going for them rn lol.

Yeah it’s rough goings in the Shark pit.
Edric Blight
WHOOOO ME?
Lol yea.
Should be an easy free win but honestly idk what to expect with these Islanders anymore lol.

Oh? That would be a tough one to lose. Relatable though I just went through that this past regular season for baseball. Haha.
I’m hoping the Wild make some changes before it’s too much later. We look about as bad as the Sharks right now. Our goalies are getting cooked. Defenseman could probably do better but things haven’t looked good at all between the posts.
Edric Blight
WHOOOO ME?
Exactly lol. Nothing is a guarantee in sports lol.
Yea the Wild have been losing BAD and letting a LOT of goals in I've seen judging by the scores of their recent games.
The Silent Z

Definitely true lol.
Yeah it’s been bad. Really bad. I predicted they would fall a bit in the standings but this was far worse then I expected. It’s early, still plenty of hockey left but this doesn’t do much for a fans outlook on the season. Zuccarello has been out some games. Kaprizov gave us fans a bit of scare the other game, maybe it was last night? Didn’t watch just caught some box score and reviews since I was busy elsewhere. The league seems to be like NHL 23 and be really high scoring to start the year, but the Wild have given up on average way too many goals. The offense has been a bit quiet in comparison. But yeah, your right. It’s been bad and we’re giving up a lot.
Edric Blight
WHOOOO ME?
Yea, Sharks might be a sleeper team tonight looking for a win after 4 straight losses to start off the season. Can't count them out sadly.
Yea it's a yikes for them. Plus I heard Fleury hasn't been very good.
The Silent Z
Just Here
True.
Yeah, Fleury hasn’t been good. It’s a tough call but we might need to take a look at Gustafson as the starter for a bit and see once he’s had time to get comfortable, see if he’s the guy or if we need to make a move for a goalie. At the very least maybe split the two time wise for now and see if that helps Fleury. Either way, he’s been having a rough go early on this season. Low 80’s and below save percentage so far in game box scores I’ve seen.
Edric Blight
WHOOOO ME?
Yea sad to see and a rough spot for the Wild and Minnesota goaltending.
The Silent Z

Agreed. A long and great career that should be HOF bound I’d imagine. But tough to see unfold this way.
Edric Blight
WHOOOO ME?
Exactly. Fleury is still 100% HOF in my mind, but it is sad to see the near end of his career ending on a sour note here with his performance in net for the Wild recently.
The Silent Z
Just Here
Agreed. Definitely agreed

Isles take home the W. Good game. 5-2 Isles win.
Sharks fall to 0-5-0 to start the season lol.

Nice! A good win and game for the Isles tonight. Got home just in time for the start of the Panthers/Sabres game so watching that for my hockey fill tonight. Wasn’t able to catch the other options with league between the end of the ALDS series finale and now.
Rough go for the Sharks. I feel for those fans tbh haha. This is tough.
Got a question for you if you don’t mind. I’ve looked around myself online for the answer but it was conflicting results. So knowing you have a few jerseys yourself and I’ve never owned one before hockey wise anyways. Did you feel like you could get the same size as regular clothes or need to go up a size when purchasing? Or maybe even a size down pending the fit? Looking to avoid a rookie mistake when I get to that point. I’ve heard hockey jerseys can run a bit bigger cause it’s hockey and usually they are made to fit over equipment so if getting like the authentic jerseys that could be the case. But then again, others claim different in my research. Such as brand dependent and etc. Thanks in advance by the way! If not then no worries and thanks for the time on it.
Edit: Odd seeing ESPN+ is playing the repeat of the Sabres/Cats from a few days ago though. It said Oilers/Sabres. But oh well, still watching it lol and on the Panthers broadcast.

Good question. I’d maybe go one size up of your regular clothes. But honestly I’ve done my normal clothes and it fit snuggly. So I say one size up for a more loose feel, and if you wanna risk making it your size you could have two options- a perfect snug fit or a little too tight.

Hopefully this helps and makes sense. It’s right now late after hockey practice and I am very tired. My words and answer might not me right or make any sense tbh.

Ok now that I’ve got a clear head maybe I can address your question. First, are you getting an authentic (usually more expensive) Adidas game jersey, like the real jersey the players use? Or the little bit cheaper Fanatics player replica jerseys? I have one authentic (Sorokin) and the rest of mine are Fanatics.This might be important for choosing the size of the jersey depending on if it’s real Adidas or Fanatics replica. For the real jersey I’d go a bit bigger. For Fanatics jerseys I’d just do your normal clothing size.
Hope that helps better.
