With July 1 just passing this week, would love to hear insight on what free agency frenzy is like from a player’s perspective. Jersey collection is SICK!!!
It's funny how Brendan talks about light coming in the arena or the room. I worked in a rink for 23 years and also officiated for over 20 years on top of playing my entire life and seriously I would absolutely love it when I was in the ice and the door was open with teams leaving after their game and the sun would be shining through the door! I LOVED THAT!!
Love the videos Brendan. I remember your goal when I was at the Notre dame winter classic. You should make a part 2 of your experiences with players like Patrick Kane, Debrincat, draisatal, etc.
This video is dope!!! So nice to see that you kept some of your jerseys! My experience is that not every pro player wants to collect his own history… Me as a game worn jersey collector also learned that not every jersey that is sold is what it should be (Your Blackhaws Winter Classic is a good example)… I absolutly love the section „hockey“ in your channel!!!! Thank you for all the baclground stories! A video about sticks and how players prepare them would be great! Sorry for my poor English as I‘m for Germany (near England 😉)!
I love that condors Jersey! I remember seeing you play in the first ever game at the Dollar Loan center in Henderson and you got the 1st star of the game! Can’t wait for the upcoming season!
Love seeing the sweaters noyhing as good as a hawks home red though love the Canada one next then Detroit I grew up in Chicago my first job I got to see the penguins beat the hawks for the cup then after game I was talking to an 18 year old drunk jaromir Jagr memories
ugh, the background photo for the video of the old Jack Gatecliff Arena ... god I hated that rink. You were built for that rink tho. Old TeePee's jersey was cool. You were a dawg in Niagara, man. Great video
Oh man... These red Blackhawks jeyseys got to be the nicest jerseys of pro hockey and you were fortunate enough to play for them. On top of that, you even have a signed Toews/Kane one. Real nice!
Sucks you’re still not in the NHL man, I still think you would’ve made a great NHL forward today. But hey, thanks for showing me your jersey collection and I wish you the best of luck in your hockey career.:)
I hope you keep going with your career. You’re an NHL player bro. As a wings fan, that year you came to us was probably the worst in our history. Just unfortunate timing. I bet on the right team you’d flourish as a 3rd line, 2nd PP guy. The dream isn’t over. You have a resume of some good NHL seasons. Go get it!
Always have to go with a Blackhawks sweater, just so classy. I did love the Red Wings for a time, watching Steve Yzerman and Sergei Fedorov play was fun.
Minor leagues always have the best specialty jerseys. That Ice Dogs throwback with the front number is nice. But I'm with you, the 2019 WC is the star of the show. And I like the story of you pulling a fast one on Fanatics too 😅
Kunitz was one of the best undrafted. Don't know if you answer questions. You told the story of why you like 42. Will you make a video about why you like 11 and 29? When you join a team, you see if 11 is used, then go to 29 as a backup? When I was a kid, I used #11 too because I seen the movie called "the fan"
Just curious, how often are NHL players given the option to keep or purchase their own jerseys and when? Through out the season or at the end of the season?
great vid! would be super interested in a video like this where u broke down your summer training regimen. workouts, summer skates, how active NHL strength and skill coaches are. Just an idea! Thanks
I'm a Ice Dogs season ticket holder, you Dougie, Strome, good teams. Lots of memories from the Jack, it was our home and practice rink for AA & AAA. Sweet collection. I'm curious about the payment of NHLPA dues? How much do you know about your pension? Also, the travel per diems - how much and when?
So we gonna see u lacing them up again next year? Or u hanging them up? Toronto marlies def could use u man! Maybe b lucky enough to see u with the leafs at some point!
Ooooh that’s hard. I would actually say the howling logo because that’s who I was drafted by and started with that so it brings back a lot of good mems
My favorites are the Blackhawks, but the Yotes will always be my favorite ones, after being a fan for over 25 years it sure was hard to see them leave.
@@Bubzp11 Awesome, that jersey is beautiful! So you guys keep the same jerseys you wear during the regular season and then at the end of the season, the team lets you keep them?
Some nice jerseys in there. I'm partial to the ones with the #29. The sexiest number ever lol. I do have a question about the Coyotes though. As a fan of the original Jets and the Coyotes being the former Jets franchise, why did they not honor the retired Jets numbers? Even if they aren't retired in Arizona I would've liked to see them not allow players to use certain numbers. The current Jets barely even honor the numbers too. Makes me sad that the Jets greats will be easily forgotten with the swapping of franchises to pad Bettman's pockets.
@bubzp11 there’s a guy claiming to have been in the locker room for the 19 WC who says the way Fanatics provided the jerseys for that game, would not have allowed for the “switcheroo” to happen. Any comment to dispute his statement?
I know you would never but don’t part ways with that white yotes jersey. They’re super rare at this point. Also being from Niagara I can attest to the Jack being an amazing arena. Spent many games there growing up with my dad watching the Falcons. Meridian Center is amazing but nothing beats the old barn feel of the Jack.
Awesome stuff have a game used collection of my own. Would love to show some of the stuff I have of yours. Maybe you’d be interested in a swap. Life long hawks fan
@@Bubzp11 You should keep playing! I am sure you still have more in you! You’re only 28, you can be in your prime! Also did Koekkoek ever get back with you?
Thanks for watching guys.. you guys are the best. I hope whoever reads this has a awesome weekend and sending positive vibes ur way🤙🏼🤙🏼
I love you Brendan
Did you ever receive any other memorabilia like sticks. If so could you make a video
Oh man my stick collection is insane!!!!
@@Bubzp11 Would love to see it!!
Thanks Capt 🫡
Damn bruh I have your used winter classic jersey 😂😂 I respect the switcheroo though
With July 1 just passing this week, would love to hear insight on what free agency frenzy is like from a player’s perspective. Jersey collection is SICK!!!
Will do... Hard for me because I never signed on July 1 so I don't know if you would enjoy my stories or not
@@Bubzp11 if you have anything you think is video worthy it would be awesome! Definitely understand if not though.👍
It's funny how Brendan talks about light coming in the arena or the room. I worked in a rink for 23 years and also officiated for over 20 years on top of playing my entire life and seriously I would absolutely love it when I was in the ice and the door was open with teams leaving after their game and the sun would be shining through the door! I LOVED THAT!!
The old switcharo jersey story is hilarious buddy 😂😂
Love the jersey collection. So many little gems in there.
Some cool ones eh! Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
Love the videos Brendan. I remember your goal when I was at the Notre dame winter classic. You should make a part 2 of your experiences with players like Patrick Kane, Debrincat, draisatal, etc.
Blackhawks jerseys are so pure. Probably my favorite sweater in sports
This video is dope!!!
So nice to see that you kept some of your jerseys! My experience is that not every pro player wants to collect his own history…

Awesome collection! I really like that UK Flames jersey🔥 Next time the Checkers are playing in Chicago, I’ll definitely come to see you play💜
I love that condors Jersey! I remember seeing you play in the first ever game at the Dollar Loan center in Henderson and you got the 1st star of the game! Can’t wait for the upcoming season!
Awesome Perls! I’m going to biased but, my favorite’s are your Blackhawks jerseys. Really enjoyed watching you during your time in Chicago.
I will admit, when they first came out, I was a little critical of them, but now I think that hawks winter classic jersey is 🔥🔥🔥
Us here in the UK appreciate a couple of those jerseys. You're one of our own. Nice collection!
These videos are good vibes! Just kick back and chill.
Cheers 🤟🏻
Love seeing the sweaters noyhing as good as a hawks home red though love the Canada one next then Detroit I grew up in Chicago my first job I got to see the penguins beat the hawks for the cup then after game I was talking to an 18 year old drunk jaromir Jagr memories

Thanks Brendan for Another Great Video !
Cheers Bud !
🏒🥅😎👍🌴☀️🥅🏒
Brendan , let me know if you ever want to sell one of your Red
Blackhawks Jerseys !?
I'm interested !
Cheers 🏒😎👍
What’s next for you in hockey or after hockey? Are you still fighting for a spot in the nhl or content with where you are
That baseball jersey is straight fire. Reminds me of the old 90s Era Florida Marlins jersey.
i’ve played tons of games and had a few practices and the jack it crazy hearing you talk about it lol
There is a case set up from the company Pather display cases. That can give you 360 view of the jersey in cased
Oh shit there we go!! shout out my chi people coming through!!
I hope you keep going with your career. You’re an NHL player bro. As a wings fan, that year you came to us was probably the worst in our history. Just unfortunate timing. I bet on the right team you’d flourish as a 3rd line, 2nd PP guy. The dream isn’t over. You have a resume of some good NHL seasons. Go get it!
Always have to go with a Blackhawks sweater, just so classy. I did love the Red Wings for a time, watching Steve Yzerman and Sergei Fedorov play was fun.
That winter classic sweater is absolutley sickening!!!
Go hawks baby
Minor leagues always have the best specialty jerseys. That Ice Dogs throwback with the front number is nice. But I'm with you, the 2019 WC is the star of the show. And I like the story of you pulling a fast one on Fanatics too 😅
Loved that winter classic game, I was rooting for y’all because it was one of the first cam ward games I actually watched after he left.
LETS get back bro!!! enjoy the vids I wanna see the chi town hat trick again
Hell yea wish more guys would do this. Love the bako
Definitely the Hawks winter classic. I remember watching that game.
Some sick jerseys in that collection. Really hope whoever has the “first period” WC hawks jersey sees this 😂
me too😂
Nice video . 👍🏼
Kunitz was one of the best undrafted. Don't know if you answer questions. You told the story of why you like 42. Will you make a video about why you like 11 and 29?
When you join a team, you see if 11 is used, then go to 29 as a backup?
When I was a kid, I used #11 too because I seen the movie called "the fan"
Oilers. Hands down. Chicago has always had sick jerseys though.
Just curious, how often are NHL players given the option to keep or purchase their own jerseys and when? Through out the season or at the end of the season?
great vid! would be super interested in a video like this where u broke down your summer training regimen. workouts, summer skates, how active NHL strength and skill coaches are. Just an idea! Thanks
I'm a Ice Dogs season ticket holder, you Dougie, Strome, good teams.
Lots of memories from the Jack, it was our home and practice rink for AA & AAA.
Sweet collection.
I'm curious about the payment of NHLPA dues?
How much do you know about your pension?
Also, the travel per diems - how much and when?
This was cool seeing all these jerseys. Aces.
The CHL has some wild arenas. Would you ever consider doing a video on that?
Yesssir just what we need 🫡💰
You're encroaching on The Hockey Guy's territory here man lol Keep the vids coming!
That's about as nice of a collection as it gets with some legendary franchises. The only thing missing is the Charlotte jersey, I think.
So we gonna see u lacing them up again next year? Or u hanging them up? Toronto marlies def could use u man! Maybe b lucky enough to see u with the leafs at some point!
I’m just chilling rn
This video is awesome, my favourite of yours so far 👌🏻
When I was a kid I used to watch your dad play for Lee Valley Lions
i would love to hear more about europe!
also do you prefer the yotes howling logo or the kachina? kachina is my favorite.
Ooooh that’s hard. I would actually say the howling logo because that’s who I was drafted by and started with that so it brings back a lot of good mems
Nice jersey collection I love watching ur videos do you have any tips for me in the future of my hockey career?
Just have fun dude. Have fun every single day. Nobody cares about the results if you scored or not. Main thing is just if you enjoy it
😊
Chicago would be my team regardless, but having the best jerseys in the league is a nice perk.
My favorites are the Blackhawks, but the Yotes will always be my favorite ones, after being a fan for over 25 years it sure was hard to see them leave.
Love the bit about the switcheroo with the WC jersey! Sucks to be the other guy lol
Lovin' this content!! Keep it up!
you should do a video on youre hockey gear collection over the years of pro hockey.
Awesome videos Man!
Is there a team you wish you could have played for?
ooooo man. tough question. I think it was meant to go how it went!
Would have loved to see you in Colorado!
Thats a sweet baseball jersey too
Hey Perlini - Do you still have your Hat Trick Jersey you wore with the Blackhawks?
I mean… I don’t know specifically but I think it’s the red 18-19 one in the vid
@@Bubzp11 Awesome, that jersey is beautiful! So you guys keep the same jerseys you wear during the regular season and then at the end of the season, the team lets you keep them?
Can you show all of your pucks? Like your first goal, first hat trick, and stuff that.
GREAT VIDEO...
Best jersey of all time for me is the 01 Oil drop.
Yeah, I love that Winter Classic jersey
Some nice jerseys in there. I'm partial to the ones with the #29. The sexiest number ever lol. I do have a question about the Coyotes though. As a fan of the original Jets and the Coyotes being the former Jets franchise, why did they not honor the retired Jets numbers?

Makes me sad that the Jets greats will be easily forgotten with the swapping of franchises to pad Bettman's pockets.
not sure, maybe just wanted fresh start or something
Loving the vids !! Pls keep them coming
Do u have any sticks in your collection? If u have, can u make another video? Have nice summer bud💪🏻💪🏻
Lambo my man...love this video !
Hello from Finland😅 nice collection💪🏻
Are you living in north carolina? Charlotte knights jersey is sweet!
I want that Winter Classic 2019 Jersey
Who’s your buddy that played for Örebro? Im from Örebro and a fan of the team. Love your channel and you seems like an awesome dude
im a big fan. how much for the adidas detroit red wings practice jersey?
Hmmmmmm... ill have a think but honestly all them aint for sale haha just my collection is all
Nice collection :3
When are you allowed to keep your jersey in the NHL?
So the first period Winter Classic jersey they sold at auction is not the first period jersey. Nice collection.
Thanks for making these vids, love seeing all your accomplishments and insights on what it was like in the NHL!
Forks up.. thanks appreciate it
Man, I wish the Wings would rock a black alternate every once in awhile. Those would be so clean!
would be sick
Any chace your going to play with the checkers again this year?
@bubzp11 there’s a guy claiming to have been in the locker room for the 19 WC who says the way Fanatics provided the jerseys for that game, would not have allowed for the “switcheroo” to happen. Any comment to dispute his statement?
Who knows maybe im wrong😂
Did you play in the Brick tournament in Edmonton?
no I didn't
Im surprised there weren’t a lot of home and aways for the same year, did they only let you pick one?
How often did you guys get new jerseys? I've always wondered
In NHL I only think it’s a couple times a year for standard home and away.. almost wanna say it was like 1 switch but maybe 2
I know you would never but don’t part ways with that white yotes jersey. They’re super rare at this point.
Also being from Niagara I can attest to the Jack being an amazing arena. Spent many games there growing up with my dad watching the Falcons. Meridian Center is amazing but nothing beats the old barn feel of the Jack.
Awesome stuff have a game used collection of my own. Would love to show some of the stuff I have of yours. Maybe you’d be interested in a swap. Life long hawks fan
Shout out the goat Ronaldinho.
Bro not the switcharoo! 😂 Hopefully the owner of the first goal winter classic jersey doesn’t see this 😂
🤭
Great content!
Thanks
Blackhawks ❤
W vid
In my opinion, as a blackhawks fan😅 Blackhawks have the best jersey in all sports.
wow that belle tire sweater is filthy!
Pretty cool eh!
oilers legend
great vid man!
What happened to your hockey career now? Are you retired from the NHL?
Nah I’m just chilling
What team are you playing for next season?
Former Wing!
The Jack is no longer, it was demolished last year:(
Kunitz has 4 cups
Legend
shit 4!!! holyyy that's so sweet
lol shoutout Eddie Belfor.
Are you still a free agent, or are you retired?
Yeah im just chilling right now, figuring out what I wanna do next
@@Bubzp11 You should keep playing! I am sure you still have more in you! You’re only 28, you can be in your prime! Also did Koekkoek ever get back with you?
How can a player enter the world juniors?
Enter meaning what like play?
Yes
@@Bubzp11sorry to interrupt, but you should do at talk with Slater Koekkoek!
@@ApolloPeedlove kooks! I’ll send him a message rn
@@JustinRivera-iq9sswell you gotta be one of the best 20 players in your country basically and then they pick you
