NHL fans already upset after Fanatics ruins Stanley Cup merchandise showing just how bad the deal is

When the NHL announced that they had signed a 10-year contract with Fanatics to become the official sponsor of the league, fans immediately knew the quality of NHL merchandise was going to drop significantly. Now less than a few months later fan's worst fears were confirmed as Fanatics released their Stanley Cup merchandise.

As expected Fanatics clearly dropped the ball with the Vegas Golden Knights Stanley Cup hat. Multiple fans came forward with what can only be described as a disappointing batch of hats.








It's clear like fans expected that quality control of Fanatics continues to be an absolute mess, but that's Gary Bettman's NHL.
