It looks like Fanatics, after recently dealing with a big mess in Major League Baseball due to poor jersey quality, is now facing another problem in the NHL.
A picture showing Corey Perry's Edmonton Oilers practice jersey after barely being used has caused quite an uproar on social media, thankfully for Perry, he is not the one causing the controversy this time- but more so, what he is wearing.
Fanatics was heavily criticized by media, fans, and baseball players for delivering poor-quality products last season. Instead of dealing with the problem directly, they blamed Nike. It can also be seen on Matty Beniers' jersey, which has already ripped:
folks the Fanatics jerseys haven't even made it past training camp
Who's really responsible here?
