NHL should sign a deal with AliExpress for their next round of jerseys.

Wait, they are a STORE, right? So the jerseys will be store brand jerseys now?

EvoFire 03-21-2023 04:38 PM

So are the players going to wear Fanatics? Or is it only the merch that's going to be Fanatics? If it is then I would find it hard to believe fans would pay for something that's a different brand altogether.

SkinnyPupp 03-21-2023 04:57 PM

Yeah I think they mean they will be the official STORE you can buy Adidas (or whatever) jerseys from. NFL does the same thing with the same company.

Because if the store bought jerseys are store brand replicas.. That is so bush league I can't imagine they'd consider it. It would be humiliating.

Edit: Holy shit it's true.

Fanatics is taking over as the league’s on-ice jersey provider beginning with the 2024-25 season, replacing Adidas, which has made them since 2017.
Warning: Do NOT watch that video unless you want to see a man throw a fucking conniption fit over peoples' reactions to this because he likes the brand

IT sounds like even players are going to be wearing gear from Fanatics.

Absolutely garbage brand, think your average lower-league bantam U18 league is going to have better jerseys than pro NHL players.

EvoFire 03-21-2023 06:02 PM

If anything, blow out sales on old Adidas stock?

SkinnyPupp 03-21-2023 06:14 PM

Nice pass by Bear

bobbinka 03-21-2023 07:16 PM

Islanders spank Leafs 7-2, Horvat had 0 points

SkinnyPupp 03-21-2023 07:19 PM

JT does it again! :awwyeah:

SHG penalty shot!

punkwax 03-21-2023 07:26 PM

Impressive backhand.

AzNightmare 03-21-2023 10:12 PM

JT Miller is so good.

SkinnyPupp 03-21-2023 10:18 PM

I was just thinking the coaching change seems to have helped him the most. Or maybe it was getting rid of Bo

Liquid_o2 03-22-2023 09:04 AM

JT Miller was back checking like crazy last night. Good to see that Tocchet is getting him to buy in as it makes him a more complete player.

69 points in 69 games FeelsGoodMan

punkwax 03-22-2023 09:07 AM

I’ve talked a lot of smack about JT but he seems to be behaving under Tocchet’s watch. Let’s see if he can keep his cool a little better moving forward.

Hondaracer 03-22-2023 09:11 AM

As I’ve said before An 8 million dollar player is like a 75 point player in this league

If JT can continue to be a PPG player, he’s actually decent value for what he brings

68style 03-22-2023 09:45 AM

He must have really hated Boudreau, he's not even the same player as earlier this season

bobbinka 03-22-2023 11:06 AM

Boudreau is an offensive guy, so I wonder if his direction to the scoring guys was to not waste energy trying to backcheck. Under Boudreau, Miller was camping a lot. Didn't see that under Green. I think Boudreau gave players a lot of freedom what they did on the ice, hence front office's desire for structure.

These days it's pretty close to $100,000 a point for a forward, so if he's hanging around 75-80 for a few seasons we're good. Petey is gon' be damn expensive.

Liquid_o2 03-22-2023 02:17 PM

Back the dump truck of money at his house and give him what he wants. Top 10 player in the league.

Nah. When BB came in 2021-2022. JT Miller had 99 points with a +15. The team did well with him. I have a feeling it was JR and upper management that didn't get along with BB.

68style 03-23-2023 08:47 AM

How does that explain how Miller played like absolute sh!t for the first 3/4 of the season this year though?

Like eye test wise, it's not even the same player, complete night and day.

Insert comment it was Horvat :troll:
