My gawd read for understanding...

It seems this is a difficult concept for you.

"Despite a potential sale, Adidas will be "keeping the CCM apparel license, not transferring it to the new CCM owner."

Your article is pre-sale and speculating on the sale details.

And I notice you left out this detail from your own article:

Adidas is "killing the CCM apparel brand" even as the company is "selling its CCM hockey brand as it continues to move away from the sports hard-goods space,"

Uffda.... Since the sale...

Adidas HAS BEEN the branding on Athletic appeal in the hockey sector.

Why... because...

Despite a potential sale, Adidas will be "keeping the CCM apparel license not, transferring it to the new CCM owner."

As "speculated"... man this is tough to comprehend why this is difficult for you..... Adidas removed the CCM labeling from the hockey apparel and applied the Adidas wordmark.... they however still holf and maintain the particular licence

 

I mean I'd doubt crayons would help at this point...

If only there was some way to have a visual proof of this.... maybe on EVERY NHL sweater currently used.

Maybe even something closer to home... more sinister in your eyes?

Now... moving forward...

Adidas is exiting the hockey apperal sector... NO indication they are selling the "CCM apparel license" just no longer using it...

 

Hence... .

UND will be contracting with a new provider for future jerseys.

 

 

 

 

Your lack of understand is key to sooooooo much else right now.

If I were a bettin' man, ... 

Adidas is done with NHL jerseys after 2023-24. (New NHL vendor for 2024-25.) 
Last time the NHL changed suppliers one year later UND changed to the same supplier. 

I'd guess UND goes to the new NHL vendor in about 2025-26.

My provide guess may be wrong, but it will be a new vendor. 


You seem to know so much; do educate us on the master plan.

Christ alive this isn't difficult there is no sinister evil plan... here or anywhere else

Adidas isn't interested in the hockey apparel market at this time, they will continue to hold an asset.... to be continued.

Hense as it relates to this thread and information.. whennit comes to hockey jerseys...

CCM is Adidas

Adidas is CCM

You're right.

Instead of down the leg and across the chest it should also be on the white piece on the mask top bar (says Riddell on Tommy's helmet) and on the back of the helmet neck protect pad too. Wait, they have that last one

The logo as a shoulder patch would be a nice touch. 

As others have alluded to, the nature of football and basketball jerseys with the large numbers on front and back don’t allow for a large logo.  Those programs are displaying the Hawk name and logo as prominently as they can, save for going all out using the modifications above.
 

Hockey jerseys are perfect for a big logo on the front middle, something I admit the current rectangular logo isn’t good for.  I hope a new logo is designed and the current one becomes the secondary shoulder pad/helmet logo.   That said, the opportunity for a diagonal HAWKS script on a hockey jersey instead of NODAK looks real good right about now.   The hockey program had a chance to ease in with something like this but chose not to, which is no surprise.

Agree. Somewhere around here from the start I said the current primary is better served as a secondary logo.

Berry's choice during voting was ... well, look at the front of the Vegas black jerseys.

UND still has a hard goods contract with CCM (skates, pads, sticks, etc).  For hockey Addidas is just jerseys pretty much.

Not sure who the new supplier for NHL will be but look to Underarmour as well as a possibility 

What I said isn't wrong.  UND has two contracts, one with Adidas for apparel and shoes/cleats, and a second with CCM for hard goods, where UND wears exclusively CCM helmets, masks, gloves, and shin/elbow/shoulder pads.  UND also gets a a deal on skates and sticks from CCM, but CCM doesn't have exclusivity with those two items (e.g. players can use Bauer sticks or skates if they prefer).  Both contracts expire after the 2024-2025 season, but UND has two options to renew the contract for an additional year (two total years) with the existing terms, so the CCM deal could run until the end of the 2026-27 season.

Not sure if you mentioned it or someone else, but I don't really see how the NHL jersey supplier is relevant or has any impact on who UND selects for the school-wide apparel deal, because other than for a different corporate patch on their jersey,  it doesn't really affect hockey players since jerseys are all pretty much the same quality no matter who is manufacturing it.

Was not referencing your post.

You are 100% absolutely correct.

The NHL jersey info was to point out a different corporate labeling and licensing to him.

 

CCM.. Adidas.... just owned branding on aparel.. (i.e. hockey jersey)

CCM equipment is a brand now owned by a Canadian holding company

CCM aparel branding which was retained and relabeled Adidas ... as you correctly point out, has nothing to do with who manufacturers the sweater.

That's likely sourced out to  a Canadian manufacturing company.

Not prominent enough.  Isn't that the argument when UND has the patches on the hockey jerseys?

Nice try.  How many NFL and college football jerseys have the school primary logo front and center on the chest of the jersey?  The short answer is “none,” because there’s a number there.  It’s on the UND helmet because that’s where the primarily logo is typically placed for a football team.

Well partially.....

It's on half the helmet...

If football would actually buy into the logo it'd be on both sides. 

Hockey puts it on both shoulders.

It's been on both sides for at least two if not three seasons.
It started when they went to black-on-green instead of green-on-green stickers.

Still looking for the words "Fighting Hawks" on a hockey jersey worn by Berry's team.

The full "Fighting Sioux" name never made it on a hockey jersey either.  Most seasons the word "Sioux" was also absent.  And truthfully, from 1964-1993,* the hockey team was the only athletic program to wear the "Blackhawk" logo whereas every other program was using the interlocking ND and Geometric logo.

Seems to me that there's always been a "hockey only identity" but its only recently that a certain subset of folks have chosen to complain about it.

*Correction, if I recall, we had home whites for a few years in the 70s with the ND, but I still stand by the point.

UND hockey has to be one of the only schools with completely blank helmets. Looks ridiculously dumb

Take a lift from soccer.  Put 8 stars on the side of their helmet and add number 9 after April.

It does look stupid.... I hate it.

The Fighting Hawks logo should be on both sides.

 

After the redesign I hope it will be.

I wish UND held to a uniform theme across all sports. 

Black helmets, green helmets, don't care, but can we be consistent across hockey and FB.

Might look a little wonky, but I’d take anything!  I think a diagonal Hawks would look great on there if they didn’t want to put the logo.   At some point, I’d love to see a state of ND outline of some sort. Put it on the shoulders or helmet.  Show some state pride, not just UND-Grand Forks hockey program pride.
