Fanatics signs 10 year deal to be uniform supplier of NHL

[MoneyManny]

Fanatics sucks but I don’t get it, one photo of a jersey with a rip in it with no context.

And Ik it’s just practice jerseys but the new “Property of” in the graphic is tacky and cringy, and the random shoulder fill-in looks stupid too.

That stuff has been happening regularly in every other sport Fanatics has dipped their fingers into. It's been a running joke for years, what they make is garbage. It's not just one photo, but one of many.

Weren't the Rebok On Ice jerseys in the 300s/400s as well?

The On ice jerseys aren't going to be something the Majority of the NHL fanbase buys and they will Default to the Premium tier they have been buying for the past few years. But there are a ton of Jersey Collectors who have been asking for a more true to on ice product for years, and this is aimed towards them.

When does Utah announce their name and/or logo.
I assume the 5 name vote has concluded.

I assume they announce the name and logo at the same time.

Washington in the NFL went by Washington Football Team (WFT) for a couple of seasons and when they changed to the Washington Commanders, many fans wish they were WFT again lol

I wonder if they just end up keeping Utah HC, I know they said they wouldn't but I wouldn't be surprised if it's considered

The on ice jerseys haven't been available at retail since the RBK edge transition in 2007, and yeah, they were high $300s then. This is pretty much just the same price with inflation.

The Premium tier, which is what CCM and Reebok labeled as Authentic and equivalent to what the Adidas jerseys were, actually came down in price with the move to Adidas, and Fanatics is so far staying in line with the Adidas pricing.

Yes the made in Canada's are always more expensive. They are a thing in the jersey collector community but the average person is not buying those. The 'Premium' ones are the comparable to the Adidas versions that fans would buy.
