Apparently they are using the same factory that makes the authentics as adidas does. I still suspect this is going to suck.

In other news, I was reading that Adidas has $6b in unsold inventory. With the new change and the wanting to improve their balance sheet, we might be able to grab some quality merch for cheap.
Keep your eyes peeled!

Such a short-sighted move by the NHL. What other major sports league has such a small-time, maligned outfit producing official game jerseys? Obviously speculating, but even if the offers from other companies weren’t as lucrative for the NHL, they should have heavily weighed in favor of going with a more established, recognized outfit in for nothing else but to protect league reputation.
While I will not buy a current Fanatics jersey, if they are going to use the same factory as Adidas and not change any material until 2026, this might be better than we initially expected.

In case anyone didn’t see the details in the [ESPN article](https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/35909210/fanatics-replacing-adidas-nhl-official-uniform-partner), they have been making official game worn jerseys with other brand logos on them for MLB and officially licensed Nike Pro jerseys.
