Giant Birthday for Mr. Hockey

It's been a while since I've done a jersey article, but this jersey you see here was unveiled yesterday by the Vancouver Giants for a week of celebration.  Yes, the Giants are terrible this year (and they lost 6-0 to Kamloops, by the way), but nothing can brighten a team's season like Gordie Howe, and the Giants will be wearing these jerseys throughout the week.  They wore them yesterday, and will continue to wear them for games on Sunday against Seattle and March 1 against Lethbridge.  The Giants will also be holding a special 85th birthday celebration that will see the likes of Howe, Marcel Dionne, Orland Kurtenbach, and Johnny Bower in attendance, with 500 fans getting the chance to meet Mr. Hockey and the other legends in attendance.
