NHL Makes Controversial Decision With New Jersey Provider
As the adidas era of NHL jerseys concludes, a new supplier must enter the scene. The NHL has made its choice, but fans are displeased.
NHL's Disappointing Choice
The NHL has selected Fanatics as the official jersey supplier for its players.
This news is unfortunate, given that Fanatics' subpar fan jerseys have been widely criticized since their 2017 launch.

Fanatics will replace Adidas as the NHL's outfitter of on-ice uniforms and authentic jerseys beginning after next season. The deal is signed through 2035.
There likely won't be any innovative design changes until 2026-27 at the earliest.
Fanatics has grown quite the bad reputation in recent years. With cheap materials, bad customer service and awful quality control, this would be most hockey fans' last choice.

It's likely that only minor improvements will be made to the basic fan jerseys, while prices will be raised to flagship jersey levels.
This is a regrettable decision by the league, made worse by the long commitment until 2035.
