Jersey Fouls of the Week: Patrick Sharp rumors; Nicklas Ovechkin
A single jersey that involves two teams tends to strike a nerve with fans. A lot of people buy them and then when they’re seen at games, they’re sent to us as fouls.
The above Patrick Sharp Dallas Stars, Chicago Blackhawks foul is interesting in part because of the recent rumors involving Sharp’s return to the Hawks. Two people, Keleigh Milliorn on email and Amber on Facebook, sent us this foul.
