Airing of Grievances - NHL Women's Merchandise

by Karina on Dec 23, 2009 3:54 PM EST

As a female NHL fan, I love wearing my team’s logo and going out there and making sure it’s known that I’m a Leafs fan. The NHL has kindly provided merchandise in women’s sizes to help me to do so. Really, they think so much of my preferences when they design these items, it blows my mind away. Especially that they would go out and get a HUGE Hollywood star like Alyssa Milano to design the clothes I will wear.

For instance, they have kindly provided these wonderful pink jerseys that fit my preference to look like Barbie:

Also, they know that I only wear sparkly clothes, like this:

And when I needed to have both pink and sparkles, they gave me this!

Yes, the NHL merchandise people are sooooooo wonderful to help me dress up all pink and sparkly as an NHL fan. Thanks, NHL, for taking my needs into consideration!!!

I am however unable to move my eyes past below the first photo so I can partake in your special brand of writing.

IT’S NOT PINK, IT’S LIGHTISH RED.

When will the NHL ever learn?

I have nothing interesting to say.

Fun fact*

They originally made the logo on that shirt scratch-n-sniff, but that invited more unwanted attention than wandering eyes.

*may not be an actual fact.

The design on the back of the first sweater is horrible. Made me want to vomit reading that. This sort of stuff should be outlawed. Nice work Karina.

Stay true. Do it right. Only wear Blue and White.

There sure is a lot of rhyming around these parts today.

And yeah, I get where Karina is coming from. Can you imagine if all men’s NHL merchandise had monster trucks and guns and explosions and Bruce Willis and………

I’ve lost my train of thought.

Why do we do this to ourselves?
