Actually, did they have the black 3rd jerseys when Probie was around? That would make a nice "complement" to my red one! - John Jaeckel
They did and its sitting in a frame signed in the front room of my apartment. If you havent already, (which Im sure you have) you should give the Probie book a read JJ. It was awesome!
Does anybody know if they will ever bring back the all black alternate jersey? I know they have been using the old style ones similar to what they wore at the winter classic but I still say my favorite hockey jersey is the all black alternate the Hawks used to use.

Read it twice. I actually wrote a review of it here on the blog in the summer of 2010 right after he died.
Really enjoyed that one. The writing style fit Probie's playing style: blunt, in your face, definitely didn't pull punches. - prd797
I just really wish he would've finally turned the corner on his addiction. Even up to the day he died he was sort of still "operating" like an addict. It didn't seem to me like he came totally to grips with it—and he hadn't fully made peace with it and some people he'd hurt in the process. So I don't know if that's a flaw with the book or with his life in total.
