y2jdmbfan Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) So I really want a Panarin jersey, although I don't necessarily want to invest $350 after customizing for a real Edge 2.0 of him, as he might fall off after this great season, so I thought I would grab a premier Stadium Series Panarin. I went and tried them on, both an XL and XXL last night and was definitely disappointed in the fit. The jersey's are very thin compared to a standard Hawks Premier that I tried on and didn't end up buying anything. I don't have a muscular figure and the XXL fit like a dress more than anything, if I got a Stadium Series premier, it would have to be the XL. I am already planning to get a Edge 2.0 Stadium Series from the Baron when he gets them and get it customized with Kane, as I have all of his Edge 2.0 jerseys, so I may just get a Premier Panarin. I have a shop.nhl.com gift card, does anyone know if their Premier customization is decent? Thanks!

mfitz804 Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Their customization is notoriously terrible. You'd be better off buying a blank and sending it to the team customizer. Not that I would suggest a Premier, they're junk in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeOiler12 Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Avoid customizing at NHL.com. It will not be accurate and there's just too many stories of bad experiences with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2jdmbfan Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) Found a Edge 2.0 Red Blackhawks on Ebay for cheap, so ordered it and going to get it customized with Panarin. A Premier customized would have cost me $220 after tax, it will be under $300 after customization for the real deal.

Griff Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Yeah I think you always would have regretted the money spend on a premier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsguy Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Yeah I think you always would have regretted the money spend on a premier. I know I regretted a lot of mine. At one point I had 7 or 8 premiers. Now I have 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2jdmbfan Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 I thought about an Indo Edge 2016 Stadium Series, they are available locally, but I think I would have regretted spending that much on an Indo Edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 What kills me is that there's just no way to recoup money on a Premier. I have a few that I've been tempted to sell but I would expect to maybe get back a little third of the original purchase price. I only had one. Kovalchuk Devils, bought for $99 on sale when he signed, sold for $50 the day he retired. Take that traitor!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM7392 Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 I only had one. Kovalchuk Devils, bought for $99 on sale when he signed, sold for $50 the day he retired. Take that traitor!! Fortunately I've never had to deal with a premier. I initially had a CCM replica and then jumped straight into authentics thanks to this forum. Glad I did because I know I would have ended up buying a bunch and then regretting it later when I realized how bad they are compared to the authentics. I don't blame you on that though. I would have bought a kovy premier for $99 anyway. But then he left for all the rubles in Russia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get a brand new devils premier blank jersey on eBay for $50 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vadarx Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 (edited) i only have one premier myself, a black third Toews my ex got me at the start of the 08-09 season. i use it for all of my sc champs patches and for wearing to the bar or parties or any other time i wanna wear a jersey and not give a rip about getting anything on my jersey. i get many compliments on it for some reason, which always makes me laugh a little. as doc said, i have also turned into a snob....
