OT: Your Caps Collection, now with more Lord Stanley & Reverse Retro (all-purpose jersey, memorabilia, clothing, etc discussion thread)

[Maruk moustache]

Goodbye money. haha

I think the apostrophe is backwards and upside down.

 

[NobodyBeatsTheWiz]

I might have to buy the new draft hat. It's pretty slick. If only the stupid fanatics logo weren't on it.

 

[RandyHolt]

Meh on fanatics garb so far but it seems like they have taken over. Dicks in Rio has an ongoing meh selection, but D'IAGTFKY'SP there today made the trip much better.

I talked to this guy who looked like DSP, and I asked if he was friend or family and... bingo - family. He told me he would get DSP to hook me up at the end, but I had to usain bolt.

With that Caps Polo you could probably walk into the locker room at Kettler. I am eyeballing the adidas hat just to keep the gear flowing. I need to stop being suck and get a framed Ovi hoisting the cup or a team photo. Maybe a collage is best.

All my NHL.com orders better start rolling in soon dammit!

 

[g00n]

I only want 4 things:

-Miniature Cup (yeah, I know, cheesy)
-Autographed Team Pic
-Wilson Navy Winter Classic Jersey
-DVD of all the games

I've seen 2 of the 4 online but admittedly I didn't look for long.

All I want now is the last item on your list but so far no luck.

I still have the elimination games from the last 3 rounds on Tivo but no freakin time to watch them.

There's this, but it's unclear which games (if any?) are included

Ya. The description on that thing is crap. So I’m waiting.

 

[kicksavedave]

Just got my "We're not gonna be suck this year" coffee mug. Definitely not Caps red. More like raspberry purplish. Still never drinking from anything else though.

 

[RandyHolt]

I got the kicksavedave endorsed framed photo, and the NBTW endorsed fanatic cap, and then spotted a quick dry merit polo for the hattie!

@RandyHolt whered you get the quick dry?

@RandyHolt whered you get the quick dry?

I see NHL gear slowly moving away from 100% cotton 100% of the time.

Anywhere you shop, look for "performance" or Material: 100% Polyester. I just ordered these:

This is a must have as far as I am concerned:
Men's Washington Capitals Fanatics Branded Red 2018 Stanley Cup Champions Five Hole Performance T-Shirt

Hopefully one day they will add names and numbers on the back

Polo - not the polo I wanted but is the fabric I wanted.
Men's Washington Capitals Antigua Navy Merit Polo

 

[RandyHolt]

@Portable Mink

I now see a customized blended fabric option, that is likely to be close to quick dry: Material: 50% Cotton/37% Polyester/13% Rayon. Good for HF Meetups! It looks like a dress...

Capitals are smashing online sales records for Stanley Cup championship gear

Capitals fans finally have the chance to add Stanley Cup championship gear to their wardrobes and they’re not letting the opportunity pass them by. A spokesman for Fanatics, the NHL’s official and exclusive provider of the locker room T-shirts and hats that Alex Ovechkin and his teammates donned after they clinched the franchise’s first title last Thursday, said the Capitals are on pace to set a record for Stanley Cup championship gear sold online by the retailer since it began tracking such data in the mid-2000s.

In the week since the Capitals won the title, the team set a record for e-commerce sales of Fanatics-branded Stanley Cup championship gear, breaking the previous post-clinch sales mark set by the Penguins in 2016.

Makes sense, almost every other winner has been a previous champ, not as big a rush to buy more gear i'm sure.

 

[Silky mitts]

I don't like any of the gear except the Barstool or RMNB stuff. Still bought 3 signed pucks so far.

I might get this polo. I really want the other one but it seems they may not be restocking it, unfortunately. My wife has her own craft store and she could embroider/heat press the Stanley Cup Champions logo onto it so that's a pretty solid Plan B.

She made me a "World's Best Dad" t-shirt with the Weagle as the "A" in Dad. Pretty boss.

Hmmm I may get my wife to work as well. She's crafty, she's just my type. Yes I do have a huge heat press in my laundry room - it's high time to dust it off.

I liked the polo you are eyeballing. I frantically called Fanatics to see if they'll carry that in a quick dry variety, and the guy I spoke to said he knows nothing at all about future products. So, I got the blue with very slight red trim.

Amazon seems to have a lot of the same items as the NHL shop for some cheaper prices. Granted, that doesn't include shipping costs that the NHL shop is offering for "free" but it appears that the NHL shop has marked up the merch to compensate for the "free" shipping (at least on some items)

Too bad it's a lie!

This site may have some different stuff.

Washington Capitals Memorabilia: Autographed & Signed, 2018 Stanley Cup Champions

I am eyeballing the Willy Cup Hoist picture 16 x 20 $70

We practically have an obligation to keep on purchasing anything that catches the eye

Is it safe to assume the players probably haven't even yet signed the stuff we are seeing for sale? If so, when they hell did they have time. I am not 100% convinced everything we see for sale will be physically signed. Possible digital copy paste alarms are going off.

I've watched the 2012 Baltimore Ravens one of these more in the last 6 years than any movie besides Winter Soldier.

 

[RandyHolt]

Winter Soldier eh?

I caved and got the upper deck cards. They better have Ovi in there.
