AeroFishOne Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 19 hours ago, CJ Matthews said: Yep, people really wanna see that Coyotes/Panthers match-up. That'll bring the ratings up! I’d be hyped for it but I’m not one that likes the bigger teams. I didn’t mean go that far out but if your going to continue to go with a big team pair them with someone that hasn’t done a classic. Colorado and Minnesota are two good locations for a prime time game. I don’t know how cold it gets in Columbus. Hell I’d just be excited to see some of the expansion teams for the jersey reasons alone. Be cool to see what some of these teams would wear.

AParrotLooksAt40 Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Team Issue vs Team Issued; same thing? I've heard Team Issued is a jersey the team actually was given while Team Issue means the jersey was made for the team but the team never possessed it. any truth to all this?

TheKevinShow Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 No, they’re the same thing. The team actually possessing a TI blank jersey changes nothing about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 (edited) Team issue(d) is a blank jersey issued to the team that is unused. Either way you say it. Edited February 23, 2018 by mfitz804 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen some team issued jerseys, but was never really sure if they sell for more than a regular authentic or not. Do you know if they do?

You just said most of us would buy TI if available, so that conveys value, and I'm sure JB hangs out here so they're gathering consumer insight.

If available at the same price, yes. Which on its face does not convey any additional value over a retail authentic, it’s literally a choice between things of the same value by crazy people who feel an extra piece of twill on the fight strap attachment is somehow better.

True! From an aesthetic accuracy point of view it makes sense though for people around these parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I’ve found better deals buying TI jerseys from MeiGray and on eBay than I have found anywhere else. Especially after the Adidas change, retail jerseys (Devils of course) at 50% off (the best discount I saw) were $150, while MeiGray had TI for $129. That said, I’ve never given any consideration to whether a jersey is TI, I'd never use that as a basis of my purchase decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a couple of team issued Hawks jerseys, and I've always considered TI as more of a bonus than a requirement for my collection.

I wouldn't not buy a jersey if it wasn't TI, but if I had the choice, even for a few bucks extra, I'd go TI for that added "bonus." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsh139 Posted February 24, 2018 Report Share Posted February 24, 2018 I’d pay a few bucks more for a TI Edge or Starter. A CCM/Koho or Nike/PP, not so much as I don’t believe there was any difference aside from neck tagging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, partially. however, as far as 'hawks jerseys go, there is a difference between the GW/GI/TI jerseys and a lot of the retail authentic 2.0's. the tomahawks are different in they way they look stitching-wise and the way they cross over each other, in particularly the home reds.

I do not at the moment... I travel for work and most of my sweaters are at home. I only bring 3 with me, one of which is the only "incorrect" retail I have left. I replaced all of the others with TI/GI versions. I honestly won't buy anything less than a TI again. at least any Reebok/adidas. let me see if i can get a pic of this one to load....
