Fanatics face major backlash again for showing disrespect to Steven Stamkos
This offseason has seen significant changes in the NHL, including a shift to Fanatics as the new producer for NHL jerseys, leading to fan dissatisfaction.
The NHL, under Gary Bettman's leadership, opted for Fanatics to design and produce their jerseys and merchandise for the upcoming season.
However, Fanatics has a history of producing lower-quality items, as evidenced by their recent work with Major League Baseball (MLB).
With Fanatics now handling NHL apparel, complaints have surfaced. One notable issue involves a fan who purchased a Steven Stamkos jersey from the new Nashville Predators lineup.

This summer, Steven Stamkos concluded his time with the Tampa Bay Lightning and signed with the Nashville Predators on July 1st, joining a notable free agent class that includes Jonathan Marchessault and Brady Skjei.
The acquisition of high-profile players typically boosts jersey sales. A fan who bought a new Nashville Predators jersey featuring Stamkos was dismayed by the poor quality of the item received from Fanatics.
