Weave Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 Sabres Edge Blog Rob Niedermayer remains stuck at exactly zero goals and has even had the indignity of having his name spelled wrong ("Neidermayer") on the back of his jersey the last three games. The team said its new set arrived with that mistake and it would be fixed tomorrow. Frankly, no one had noticed until the gaffe started showing up on Internet message boards and the media asked about it Monday. Even Niedermayer said he hadn't noticed.
Weave Posted January 18, 2011 Author Report Posted January 18, 2011 ??? The misspelling was a topic in more than one thread here. Or am I losing my mind?
bob_sauve28 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 The misspelling was a topic in more than one thread here. Or am I losing my mind? No, I saw someone mention it but did not know what they were talking about

thesportsbuff Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 the most shocking part of the story is that people actually noticed. i would have never been able to tell you with any kind of certainty whether it was Nied or Neid
Two or less Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 the most shocking part of the story is that people actually noticed. i would have never been able to tell you with any kind of certainty whether it was Nied or Neid LOL seriously. I actually read it after the first game it happened (Jan 1st) but the topic died down, i guess people didn't really believe the poster. It picked up a lot of steam last week when Bulldog noticed it on forums and talked about it on radio, then it spread like fire...
X. Benedict Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 To spice up the season all future jerseys for Niedermayer should be anagrams as well (it would be the most intersting thing about him this season): Who wouldn't want a #20 Jersey that says: Remained-Drye Remain-Redye Yearned-Mire Dreary-Minee Many-Reedier or my favorite: Earned-My-Ire Get on it M.G.
Robviously Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 The misspelling was a topic in more than one thread here. We did it! We made an impact on the NHL! Wooo!
johnyvegas Posted January 18, 2011 Report Posted January 18, 2011 No one noticed the typo on his jersey because I cannot think of a more invisible player on the ice than Niedermayer. I've made a point of watching him the past few games and seriously, he may be the biggest loaf I've even seen sport a Sabres jersey (historically bigger loaf suggestions are welcome). Useless doesnt even come close to describing him. I would describe his tenure in Buffalo as a pointless, listless, apethetic coasting into retirement. What a waste.

Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted January 21, 2011 Report Posted January 21, 2011 I'm glad some people have an eye for that stuff because I would never pick up on that. Hey, any way to squeeze another $15 out of the cow before the sale is final. And no, I'm not really joking on this. Too many little ticky tack things going on at the arena the last few months.
nobody Posted January 24, 2011 Report Posted January 24, 2011 Maybe they just didn't want to misspell it.
