Fanatics Officially Take Over as Jersey Provider, Ducks/Kings Rebrand, Game 7 Ratings 

Congratulations to the Los Angeles Kings for spending two years and $25 million to create the logo & jersey they already had.

I love that the Ducks went all in with Orange County. No pretending to be LA’s little brother. No Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. This is Orange County’s Team. Period.

I like the new Duck unis. A 3rd jersey with the white and green colorway like the Mighty Ducks to commemorate their legacy would be fantastic and nostalgic for us 90s kids.

Awesome to hear the ducks have such a good working relationship with you.

I've never seen anyone complain that the Red Wings' all-red uniforms is too much red: I'm sure once we get used to it, the all-orange Ducks look is gonna be more than fine. Plus, black pants would just make them look like the Flyers too much

Congrats to Glen Sather on his retirement! I still have old game programs from when he played on the Edmonton Oil Kings with some friends of my family back in the early-mid 60’s. One tough player!!

I miss CCM jerseys

Many moons ago when I played hockey as a youngster they would put corduroy patches on the elbows. What they didn't realize is how good those patches were when you wanted to rub your elbows into somebody's face. Lots of raspberries and strawberries from this.

The production cost for anything Purple are insane. I'm not shocked at all that teams are dropping that color.

Wish the Kings jerseys had purple. Their RR 1.0 was perfect, that should have been the rebrand!

Stars Fan checking in; I'm loving the return of the Duck Mask with the new orange, white, black, and gold colours. I really hope they run the Purple+Teal as a third alternate, but goddamn. Anaheim ducks are back having the best logo in the league, hands down. I'm so glad the duck mask is back.

The Ducks new unis are INCREDIBLE. I love the orange, I love the classic logo. Perfection.

I wish the Panthers would go back to the leaping cat. Still, the Adidas 2021 and 2022 reverse retros were 🔥

The preds need a rebrand, add some more blue, change the shoulders or something

Supposedly they will have 4 tiers according to Brodie Brazil Authentic Pro- official on ice jerseys made in Canada and haven't been available to fans for 10 years. Premium- Equal to the highest level of retail jerseys that exist now Breakaway- Lighter material with flexible shields and patches that can be folded Practice- Newly designed practice jerseys that will be sold at retail

Ducks fan from Wisconsin. Leaks ruined the reveal but still happy the iconic "Mighty Ducks" logo is back. Wish it was eggplant and jade. But I still like them overall. I'm for sure getting the white jersey. that looks really sick.

Happy you dont hate the DUCKS anymore SHANNON! we love having you as one of our Spokemen!! ahaha

When you have a logo as incredibly good as that OG Ducks logo, you really don't have to do much to it. Just bring it back and update it a little - which is what they've done. That said, I am kind of glad the webbed D has been kept as a shoulder patch and not completely discarded.

To this day the Reebok jerseys were revolutionary.

SAD Day for all Jersey Collectors...

$400 for a jersey. Robbery

The Hockey Guy rules 🤘

This change for the ducks is long overdue. The only thing I'm disappointed with is we don't get to see Bedard wearing this with McTavish and Zellweger since Chicago won the draft lottery last year.

Im a fan of the numbering on the new Ducks jerseys

It's funny how people are complaining that the Kings are the same as the early 90s and the Ducks aren't the same as the early 90s

Love the Ducks new jersey designs on their own. With the orange pants and I believe orange helmets it's going to be a little much overall I fear on the ice. Probably should've stuck to black pants at least.

It’s always a great Summer when Shannon rolls out the jersey history videos!

I was not expecting to hear Doc Emerick's voice with the official fanatics release. It seem like NHL is doing some damage control early with Fanatics

Liam O'Brien really sold himself to the fans in Utah when they had the welcome day.

I love it for the Ducks. I've wanted my Oilers to embrace more orange again, but I never wanted them to go full orange, but I still wanted to see it tried by someone, and I think it's very fitting that the Orange County team did, and I actually think it looks really good, especially since it's a darker orange. I might be a little more excited by them because I love these and did not care for their previous uniforms, but still I love it. It's very unique, it's very on-brand, and to me it looks really good especially the logo and numbering, but we'll have to see how they look in-person and on-ice. My only problem is this probably decreased the chances of the Oilers having more orange on their aways like they did in the '70s and for the first RR, but hopefully it increases the chances of an orange alternate when we're done with the current alternate (I've actually grown to like the current alternate more now that navy blue isn't a regular color for us). As far LA I do not care, but the new, redone logo is nice. I don't complain because I know it's extremely popular, but black, white and silver is very bland to me. I want purple, black and yellow.

I think those new duck’s jerseys look so awesome .

Wonder what were the Canadian viewers compared to US viewers on game 7.

Ducks jerseys are sick. I absolutely love the striping.

Would it be possible to get an interview with Ben on the channel?

I'm an Oilers fan, so take that for what it is, but I really like the look with the orange. I never loved the black/gold ones with the D logo/Ducks word mark. The original purple/green were basically my grade school's colours, so I was fine with them moving on from that before I got out of grade school. I'm just glad it's not another white, red, blue/black uniform like for the Caps, Panthers, etc.

I have no problem with the orange jerseys. It's different which is always nice

I'm sorry, but $500 for a jersey is completely insane.

I am happy to hear the NHL teams are involved and talk with you.

Reebok had several levels, actaully Premier (cheapest) Indo-Edge. (Entry level to authentics made in Indonesia) Edge 1.0 (made in Canada, on-ice) Edge 2.0 (made in anada, on-ice)

Glen Sather deserves his own retirement video.

Shannon Skanes, Ducks insider lmao. Certainly a glow-up from "hockey super-fan" according to Global National.

The font on the jerseys and wordmark they revealed are soooo nice

Ducks' rebranding fits, much like the Kings' blended rebrand into the Gretzky-Era logo.

The made in Canada ones actually fit really well without pads. I’d make an argument they look much more symmetrical even over a hoodie or t shirt. And the quality feels so much nicer. I’d really suggest swapping: the long sleeves no armpit room of the 2nd level ones is an odd look. They look like dresses the way they flare out.

Gonna be a dark 10 years for NHL jerseys. Hopefully fanatics screws up so bad they lose the contract early

Despite Fearing Our RivalsThe Duckies New Logo Is Full Cup Winning Destiny...Now I Have To Say... These Uniforms Are Amazing. In Fashion Sense They Should Win The Stanley Cup In Fashion AndStyle On The ICE. OMG So Fly And Take My Money Please!! Oh I Love The New Chevy Retro Modern Sweater! GKG!

Teams cant have a 3rd jersey until next year, I really hope we get things like teal and purple Ducks and 90's Stars

Congrats to Glen Sather! I remember reading about those Oilers teams that he built back in the 80s.

The last team wear I bought was a St L Blues t-shirt on-line clearance from Kohls

Those kings jerseys are a thing of beauty

I love the new Kings & Ducks jerseys, I do agree that the jersey is very heavy on the orange. If they wore black pants instead of the orange pants, that would help to break up the orange.

Pretty sick to see NHL teams partnering with you, Shannon. Congrats!

Fanatics also introduced the Canucks jersey today as well.

Great article in the Athletics detailing Nike’s role in Fanatics brand quality endured by MLB.

The NHL is being a bit sneaky with their press releases on the ratings. Canada is what makes the stats sound better from the NA numbers. If you look at US numbers for the World Series, it was 9.11 and the NBA was over 12. For the NHL, if you just look at the US numbers, the number I read was 7.7 mil, which was behind 2019’s Game 7. I think what helped the US ratings go even that high is that all 7 games were available both on ABC (so free tv) and ESPN+ (for the streamers). A huge problem with the growth of the game in the US is that it’s such a chore to watch most games

thoses who didn't stack up on CCM jerseys really missed out

That sweater and hat combo is straight money dude! 🤘 i dig it. Saw the San Jose sweater on brodie brazil channel, the extra stitching around the elbows looks like some top quality goods. (Not promoting anyone just referencing the source) I'm looking forward to seeing the new gear.

Shannon, Crystal cove state beach is a jewel if u in OC again.

Do we know when there will be new jersey designs league wide? I’m so tired of my teams jersey haha (Nashville)

The Mighty Traffic Cones of Anaheim. Yes, traffics cones! For when you want to wear your commitment to constant team construction in style!

Hopefully the mid tier like Adidas “authentic” the crests are still of high quality like the prime greens.

I have to say my Ovi fanatics breakaway jersey is only now really showing signs of wear 5 years on now.

I think the jerseys looked great however, my nostalgia Mrs. the purple and teal and always will

They already messed up the New York Rangers jersey letters in their promotional video that was supposed to sell you how good these are lol.

I just wanted some eggplant or teal to go with all the orange.

As a kings fan, I absolutely love the Anaheim jersey. I actually enjoy the orange and mighty ducks logo. It gives the ducks identity. It has the perfect amount of retro combined with newer looks. Perfect! I’m also glad teams are moving away from black (like Anaheim with orange pants, San Jose with teal pants, and Colorado with powder blue pants). The kings logo is okay, and a step above their current one. I wish they took the 60’s crown and just made that the logo, and keep it black and white.

I'm excited to see how high the new Ducks jersey will rank in the all time jersey list

RIP to good jerseys

Philadelphia Flyers jersey history: The shortest video thg has ever done.

The fanatics jerseys even look akward from the reveals we have gotten.

Yay! Other mens' shirts news! Fun fact: When you keep changing the design of a uniform, it' no longer a uniform. It's a costume.

That's a lot of new jerseys to collect.

Have a great vacation Shannon. We fans look forward to your podcasts for the upcoming season . I still like my Reebok jerseys best but let's give Fanatics a chance and if their quality does not get better, then we complain (and don't buy).

Will we still be able to buy addidas this year or are they gonna be off the shelves completely.?

Video Idea: What happened to the 5 others (besides McDavid) who won a Conn Smythe on the losing team? Did they ever lift a cup? Roger Crozier in 1966 (No), Glenn Hall in 1968 (Already had 2), Reggie Leach in 1975 (Won the year prior), Ron Hextall in 1987 (Won as AGM of Kings in '12), JSG in 2003 (Won in 2007), McDavid in '24 (not yet?).

2004 - Calgary vs Tampa Last SC Final before lockout & Crosby/Ovi era begin

We will never have a purple team on the ice and it's a damn shame

The Fanatics MLB fiasco was actually Nike that was to blame

I personally think the On Ice product is a great addition, it’s just another option for people (like myself) who want the exact jersey you see your team wearing on the ice just watching from home , the Canucks shoulder patches on the retail adidas are almost touching the collar and it kinda drives me a lil nuts 😅

I will be getting the ON-ICE custom St Louis Blues Jersey

I hope fanatics makes quality hockey jerseys that fans can purchase at a store or online. During the Adidas era, fanatics made jerseys that fans could buy where the numbers pn the back of the jersey would start coming off quickly. Also, the team logos on the front of the jersey were slick and not stitched on.

My 2nd fav team, simply for that old mighty ducks logo 😁

We were singin': Bye-bye, Mr. The Hockey Guy More than thirty years of jerseys but these jerseys draw sighs. That good old boys club sold Fanatics the rights, Singin': This'll be the set I won't buy. This'll be the set I won't buy.

Not a fan of the orange ducks jerseys due to way too much orange, especially with the orange shorts, but do like that they've done full time with the old duck logo. Really like the Kings logo. Changed enough to make it fresh but a nice homage to arguably their most popular jersey.

Love the orange but the only way to lower the on ice jersey cost is not buying it. Fans just don’t learn.

Looking at the pictures of the new Ducks uniforms, they ain't bad, but they looked kind of familiar. I had to think way back to my teenage hockey years and then it hit me--the Denver Spurs. Odd that the Ducks should take their new look from one of the most obscure and short lived WHA teams, but maybe it's just a coincidence. There's only so much you can do with a hockey jersey before they all start to look like an earlier jersey.

It is alot of orange i agree, howevee i dont think it looks bad and its not loke theres alot of oragne team jerseys out there

If anything the biggest takeaway on the Ducks' rebranding is the typefaces. Love them to death. The numbers too.

Talk about Michkov!!!

As a Flyers fan, you are welcome to hate the Flyers to your hearts content.

not a fan of Fanatics operating a sportsbook taking wagers on leagues for uniforms they supply.....

I 100% get and even appreciate the move to orange because I love when when designs reflect team identity. That said, you won't catch me dead in a bright orange jersey... I'd look like an oompa loompa. Can't wait to pick up one of the purple ones soon to wear at a home game.

wow a 6 minute commercial about the new ducks jersey.

Would line to see black pants with the Ducks home uniform. Don’t mind them on the away uniform. The number kit looks🔥

I like it. Honestly wish teams would change up their looks more frequently

I think the Ducks’ jerseys should be MORE orange. The duck mask should be orange, with orange eyes and orange sticks, as well as an orange border. The main background color of the jersey should be orange. And the stripes? You’d better believe those should be orange. They should also change the shoulder logo to an orange, which will naturally be orange. And metallic orange helmets to complete the look.

I'm definitely in the much too much orange group on the Anaheim jersey. I get the idea around pushing Orange as the primary colour but they needed to incorporate some other colours, teal/eggplant so it isn't just solid orange looking like a Home Depot mascot.

The Ducks jersey THG is wearing is waaaaaaayyyyyy better than the new Ducks jersey revealed. The Block numbers are OG and give off the Nostalgic feel. The numbers on the new Ducks jersey look like they got lazy and made them with Comic Sans on Word.

The eye in the Ducks home Jersey to me looks gold not orange .Also as a Flyers fan that would have been funny if both tye Flyers & Ducks rebrands happen last season i can hear someone in Adidas Offices going nope that is to much Orange at one time.

The eye looks a lot like the Kraken logo eye.
