damn, nice...sucks if you jumped on the ones from prucenter

[ThreeCups]

Everyone knew that was going to be the most expensive place to buy it. If you did not want to wait, it was worth the extra money I guess...

[funetiklee]

Nice, I just checked nhl shop earlier today to see if they were for sale yet. Thanks for the heads-up.

I got one from Pru. I'd waited too long for one, it was in my hands and there was no way I was not buying it.

Plus shop.nhl.com SUCKS for personalized jerseys.

Yup, Dan and lastone's reasons are both why I bought it at the Rock. Since they're outsourcing the customization to look like the ones they had in-house, it'll look good when I get it next week.

would the lettering be different from the ones in the Devils Den?

I'm not sure if the lettering would be different, but NHL.com uses heat pressing, and for me the nameplate was cut wrong (I ordered a Langenbrunner jersey, the nameplate is falling off and is off-center). Also, the captain's C is too small.

In all, I wasn't happy with the quality and I wouldn't pay full price on NHL Shop's website again for a customized jersey. It's not awful if you pay half of what I paid, but for $150 whatever bucks, I'd have liked it to be a little less hastily thrown together.

is it the dummy they're using, or does it look like that's not the same sweater. BEWARE if that's a cross between an air-knit and a "premier" jersey

It says 100% air-knit. I'm sure it's the same, I doubt they would bother producing two different types of these for retail.

Also nhl.com won't print any player names but players on the current roster, so you can't get any vintage players. Best bet would be to buy a blank and send it to Exclusive Pro.

Yea that's exactly what I'm doing.

[Demonic26]

Yea that's exactly what I'm doing.

i think im going to do that too. i want a Marty 29. do you know how long it takes to get it back?

[NJSwampdragon]

I wonder if the jerseys will arrive by the St. Patty's game?

Release Date: Buy now for shipping by 03/15/2010

yeah, I'm guessing it's the way they pin it to the dummy that gives it a tapered look. but they are going to be making throwback RBK edges, for the team...

how much does exclusive pro charge with shipping and will they use the right font and colors?

[BlizzardCyclone]

Just called the websites 800 number. Turns out the jerseys will be embroidered and not ironed on, according to the guy I spoke to about these particular jerseys. The other replica jerseys still are ironed on, but I was told these would be embroidered/sewn on. He also said that the release date that they have for these are March 15. He also said it was possible the date would be moved up but he didnt have that info if they would bump up the date or not. He also said it didnt look likely that you would get it in time for the game on the 17th unless overnight shipping was used and even that is a long shot. I also found a 10% off coupon which is HrC52 (coupon code is CASE sensitive) I hear there are like 15 and 20% coupons out there so if you know of any that are not expired please share. Hope this helps out someone

[Bryan]

hmmm I got a 20% coupon from them. This might be a good time to use it......
