The Sicatoka Posted March 21, 2023 Posted March 21, 2023 Fanatics? Color me deep skeptical. Making hoodies is not making hockey breezers. They'll have someone < cough-China-cough> making them and slap a logo on. It'll be awesome. I hope to be proven wrong. Quote

Adidas never actually produced jerseys anyway, they just slapped their logo on it (which is a very common practice in the hockey jersey industry). I believe the actual manufacturer of the Adidas jerseys was SP, which in turn will create the new Fanatics jersey at their factory in Canada. A lot of jersey collectors want the jerseys that are made in Canada as they are the official on-ice ones. Jerseys made in Indonesia or elsewhere are just the cheaply made (fabric is terrible) ones that most fans buy off the rack. The made in Canada ones are rarely sold to the general public as one needs to have a huge order/demand for them, UND is fortunate to have that demand though. Quote
nodak651 Posted March 21, 2023 Posted March 21, 2023 This is good news because Fanatics has already started working with college fb and bb teams on nil jersey customization. Quote
MafiaMan Posted March 21, 2023 Posted March 21, 2023 I don’t care who makes the jerseys so long as college hockey isn’t turned into the NBA with each team having 17 different uniforms to choose from. 1 Quote

I really wish they would go back to Nike but don't see that happening as I believe the school Adidas uniform deal goes through 24. Quote

Exactly! Adidas is getting out of the NHL deal because it costs them a lot of money with very little in return. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted March 22, 2023 Posted March 22, 2023 They think of "uniform" as a noun. I'd like some respect given to its adjective meaning also: remaining the same in all cases and at all times; unchanging in form or character. Can we get to a uniform look from a team? If I flip on a game and can't tell who is playing by the uniform uniforms they use, I may flip to Iron Chef. Bobby Flay is always in the black chef's coat ... Today's secret ingredient ... SQUID!!!

My only issue was a grey isn't a home white. Our NODAK is still white. Grey vs Black IMO shouldn't have been allowed. Grey is a color. Home jerseys are to be white. Quote

Also in terms of "home jerseys are to be white," have you seen Minnesota and Michigan in the last, oh, 30 years? I think Quinnipiac also goes with gold at home sometimes too. Quote

Yeah, have seen those colors be worn. Don't necessarily mind it not being white, but in the case of one team wearing black as an away team, a dark grey with black accents isn't ideal to wear. Like the 16 champ game, green vs yellow is very discernible. That was more my point. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 22, 2023 Posted March 22, 2023 Quote Rule 9 - Uniforms 9.1 Jerseys - Each player and each goalkeeper listed in the lineup of each team shall wear an individual identifying number at least 10 inches high on the back of the jersey and at least 4 inches high on the front or on both sleeves. The visiting team shall wear dark-colored jerseys and stockings; the home team shall wear light-colored jerseys and stockings. Uniform numbers must be a light-colored number on dark jerseys and a dark-colored number on light jerseys. All players of each team shall dress uniformly in that day’s game jersey. Light-colored jerseys (e.g., white, gold, yellow or light blue) may be worn during the regular season by the visiting team only when the teams have agreed before the game. If the teams are unable to agree, the visiting team will wear dark-colored jerseys. The number of the jersey shall contrast the overall jersey color. PENALTY—Bench minor to offending team. Straight out of the NCAA rule book. Home is "light", not white. Then they go on to give examples of "light". Quote

That 2016 QU/UND matchup of gold vs green was a thing of beauty. Quote

Obviously the teams agreed, bc honestly, who would really object about uniforms, but just didn't think they were "light" enough per the rule. Hey, we won, who gives a damn now. Quote
