Just one of the three special jerseys the Habs will sport during their centennial season. While it may err on the side of boring, it's so classically well-designed that we can't find fault in the team for doing something timeless. That said, keep your eyes open for the super-vintage throwback (inset) the Habs wore for one season, in 1912-13. They call it the Barber Shop jersey, but it's more like something clowns wear during a jailbreak. The horizontally-striped sweater is right out of Ernie from Sesame Street's closet. Big points for doing something outside the box -- and we're sure it'll distract the other team.
