Whoever is in charge of the Authentic Jersey Department at Reebok and Adidas just doesn't get it. It's actually pretty simple - we want the same shit the players are wearing on the ice. Ie... "Authentic".

That's not entirely accurate. Some authentic jerseys do have the patch. But very few.
The only ones that have it are those where it was put on at MSG or at the NHL Store. The ones that Adidas are making for sale do not have it, which is a joke. How do you make and sell a special event jersey without the special event patch? Fanatics even put it on the Breakaway jerseys, and they are the ones who usually have a lower standard.

You’re going to have to customize that one yourself. They will only have current players available.

Me too; great deal too considering MSG and NHL Store pricing.
It appears that all of the ones from the large online retailers are stitched with no shoulder patch. Lids, Dicks, NHLShop/Fanatics/FansEdge (which are all the same company).

Yep, all coming from the same source as you said previously I’d imagine.
I was at the game Friday and MSG has the fanatics replicas customized now and those are heatpressed as well. Wonder where they’re getting them done.

Anyone with suggestions where I could get the patch sewn on and still have it in time for the game?
Anyone need an Adidas Winter Classic Jersey size 56 (blank)? Mom and gf both had the same idea for xmas. Seems to be low stock so I figured I'd check if anyone needs before returning it. If so, PM me.
NHL Store will heat press it for you. They it it for me and it holds solid. Will get it sewn eventually but not an emergency.
Not necessarily a jersey (didn't know where to post) but does anyone know where to get that white WC NYR beanie that Amanda Borges has on in her interview w/ Rick Nash yesterday. It's sick.
Thanks.
I wish they wouldn't do that. Sucks for us smaller blokes. I'd rather crammed in lettering than kid sized lettering.
Anyone got any experience (or better yet, actual pictures as opposed to stock photos) of the fanatics winter classic jersey?
I know they're the cheaper alternative in just about every way, but how's the lettering/fit/etc? Also, looks like they actually come with the shoulder patch?
Cheers.

Saw some in a Pure Hockey out on Long Island a few days ago. They weren’t terrible looking, but regardless I’d never buy something that isn’t authentic. Problem is, even with these new adidas jerseys, the ‘authentics’ aren’t even the ones that the players wear on the ice. It’s a farce.

It's gold Jerry.
I’ve asked before but I’ll ask again, I’ve sent Arena Wear three messages via their website and never received a response. I know everyone swears by them - What am I doing wrong? I have four jerseys I want to customize.

Mr. Preachy
You have to email them directly, or call.
Just don’t show up to their door and walk in like I did. Haha...
They are a very small business and super swamped right now. It’s two guys who run the business and one old dude and one old woman who do all the sewing work.

Thanks for all the replies, understand they are a small business and it is not a rush job, so want to hop on the line.
I bought a vector away from Jersey Baron and trying to get customized. Sportsk has two different 85th patches, one being 3in (smaller). Anyone know what the difference is between the two?

The guys over at the Ice Jerseys forums are the experts. They literally know all things hockey jerseys.
