Over/under on how bad they bungle the jersey sales?

You can't order anything custom at the Bruins pro shop online and even though it says authentic on the nhl.com shop, I am leery of getting a jersey off of them.

It is mind boggling that they don't have any other players other than Bergeron, Marchand, Pastrnak, Hall and McAvoy.
NHL shop is legit and probably slightly cheaper than buying from the pro shop. They have the same stock that fanatics.com, lids.com, and the like have as the stores are all run under the Fanatic Experience banner.

The quality of the Fanatics stuff is garbage though.

What if I wanted an old player's jersey - like a Middleton, or a Jonathan - anyone know of an avenue to acquire such a lovely item?

I like the font, and the meth bear. And Bergy lol.

I don't mind the stripe pattern.

But the gold socks don't match the gold in the jersey. And the gloves look like a dog peed on them.

I have zero interest in purchasing tickets to this. I paid so much in 2010 thinking it was once in a lifetime....

That being said, if I was gifted tickets, i'd go.

Why would the use a baby blue version when this is the jersey that was created?
because everyone is wearing black and yellow both teams, Its going to be a sea of it with no contrasting colors of the different teams when panning crowds or the marketing crap they will put up around near the rink. One of the teams should have done different colors and since they have used baby blue they could have used a different classic jersey of that color, or the Bruins could use a slightly different scheme for theirs. Either way not a fan that both teams are basically the same colors.

I get that but what you’re saying here and what you said in the OP are completely different.

For those who ordered their jersey from the pro shop on Black Friday, have you gotten it yet?

It has been crickets since I ordered mine and I emailed the proshop for the second time this morning for a status update.

They really have bungled this whole thing between tickets and jerseys.

Jersey was delivered yesterday so even though they were impossible to get a hold of I am glad it arrived before I got home.

Linus and Sway unveiled their pads and masks. Both did a fantastic job

YES! Both look amazing, but Ullmark's is the best. I've been waiting for someone to go for the Moog mask forever and his looks great. Dafoe gear is just amazing.

They sent me an email with an estimated delivery date of Dec 28th on order confirmation. I immediately called (this was less than 24 hours after placing the order) to cancel as it was a Christmas gift.

No can do, apparently. No way to cancel. Done deal. We have your money. Ordered a month in advance with no indication anywhere that it may not arrive in time. Can't cancel. Sorry!

Checking order status and it still hasn't even shipped yet three weeks later. To hell with them.

When I ordered it on black Friday the delivery date was the 22nd which is fine because I have my friend getting my mail for me. After that it was crickets. Wouldn't respond to my emails or pick up the phone when I called. I checked my order online a few times and it said awaiting fulfillment.

In a twist of fate about 2 hours after I tried to call them a shipping notice arrived in my email.

It really sucks how bad they botched the jerseys. They should have been open to preorders in September like the ones in 2010 were and then they started shipping them just before Thanksgiving.

I bought the Tahoe jersey the day it released and only waited I think 2 weeks for it. I bought the Gillette one after the game from the proshop.

I got mine yesterday too! I ordered a McAvoy and really feel like it should have an A. I'm going to add one later if he is sporting one at the game.

The construction is much better than the 2019 jersey because everything is sewn on. I had to send my 2019 jersey purchased from the pro-shop to a tailor because all the iron on numbers and letters were falling off, including one that fell off the first time I wore it, at the game in South Bend.
