Love that home jersey, but the orange pants are a bit much. And I think the away jersey could use a black or gold stripe on the shoulders to separate the orange from the white. But minor gripes in a massive upgrade on the webbed D nonsense.


and their cup winning jerseys with the wordmark ,,,,gross.

My birthday is around the corner so I ended up splurging on an autographed Luke jersey that was on sale for about the price of a regular authentic. Admittedly I had less than 100% confidence in Fanatics, but at first glance the jersey looks great. I had to gamble as they don't provide a sizing option on their autographed jerseys. I figured a 50/52 would be my normal fit and they sent a 54 which is a tad big but perfectly fine if I were to wear a hoodie underneath.

(Edit: It's an Adidas jersey not a Fanatic branded one)

Insane prices. Weren’t the Adidas authentic like 180 or something?? IIRC I got an authentic white Christmas jersey for 120 but it was on sale and IIRC it was 180 originally

The grift of it all was that the Adidas "authentics" that were sold were really made in Indonesia and not the Made in Canada authentics the players wear. Now I'm not that big of a jersey snob to think that makes a huge difference, but there are some who did. So now Fanatics "brilliant" idea is they will sell 3 jerseys. The crappy Fanatics replicas that already existed, the "authentics" for roughly the same price as the Adidas ones, and these new made in Canada authentics for an exorbitant amount.

I'm just going to grab as many Adidas ones that I can once they start getting discounted even more. I think they're already somewhat cheaper than their original price.

Just got this email too and was coming here to talk about it, absolutely ridiculous prices. People shouldn't buy these at all, what an absolute ripoff.
They'll be at your local Marshall's and TJMaxx in a year or so.

Where are yall sending out jerseys now for lettering and numbers? Just picked up a red CCM blank at a yard sale for $5 (f*** yeah!) and wanted to see the cost or any positive experiences.

I am in KS so I would need to ship it out, but I appreciate the advice.
You can ship it out to them. Thats what I do and I am only 70 mins away

CoolHockey does good work too if you want to ship it back to them

Can anyone give me a heads up on what jerseys they sell at the team store or in the Newark area?

I have breakaway jerseys from Jack Hughes Home and Nico 3rd but I really want to get a Luke Hughes away jersey. I don't think ordering one on NHLshop or Fanatics will arrive before Christmas. I'm coming to town after Christmas and wil be attending the 12/27 Hurricnaes game. Just curious what I might find in the area when I come to town.

I think they have a slew of the new jerseys in the team store now, I only attended opening night so that was almost 2 months ago. You'd likely be able to find some Jacks, Nicos, Timos and maybe some Dougies, Markstroms and Lukes.

I think now, you're able to buy from the team store and it isn't the quality issue that it once was. I'd just take a look and feel for the jerseys when you're there and see if you're comfortable with the price. It should be the same (maybe slightly more? $250?) in store as CoolHockey.
