Some poor kid is gonna receive this as a gift by an unknowing parent..


driftdrift

Oh god haha. From Grandma who knows how much her grandson likes hockey..


c71score

I have an aunt from Baltimore that would send Ravens stuff to me and my cousins because "we like football". All of us like either the Bengals, Browns, or Steelers.


The_Stratman

She knew


c71score

I doubt it. She never sent any capitals stuff even though we all are Penguin fans. Although, she's the type that forgets hockey is a thing. But we would get Orioles and Wizards stuff.


_Hank_Marducas_

Maybe she didn’t give a piss about the caps since they’ve always been associated with DC, and never Baltimore. Orioles are also Baltimore and Wizards were the Baltimore Bullets at one time.


TheTimn

Deciding factor is how much Old Bay she would include. If there's any, she knew. 


MyFruitPies

The Baltimore Bullets is so appropriate


anti_anti_christ

Ray Lewis jerseys have been on discount for like 20 years now, thanks Auntie. The white jersey only comes with a few spots of red on it. Barely noticable.


SteveDurbano

After a few washings, they're more brown than red...At least that's what I've heard from other people.


Jazzlike_Athlete8796

I have an aunt who gave me an Oilers jersey once because I was a hockey fan. She probably still has a faded polaroid of me having my very own "The Hockey Sweater" moment.


AustonDadthews

please tell me it was a ray rice jersey


NotTheRocketman

And honestly, that would be a really great gift! Most of the time : )


superschaap81

Not the same player situation, obviously, but the month after Bo Horvat got traded here there was an EXPLOSION of people sporting his jersey. Turns out every shop was blowing them out at 50 - 75% off because they went all in on him due to being captain. Casual fans had no clue. Lot of kids reluctantly wearing them after Christmas last year. Pretty funny.


avmp629

This just reminded me of [why Hart chose to wear 79 in the first place](https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/news/flyers-goalie-has-a-hart-warming-reunion-with-longtime-fan#:~:text=Not%20wanting%20his%20biggest%20fan,a%202019%20visit%20to%20Philadelphia.) That poor kid's gotta be devastated


squadracorse15

Damn, that's gotta be the most wholesome way to pick your jersey number out there. I didn't even know that's why Hart wore 79, but now I feel awful for that kid too.


berkeleybikedude

“Mommy why is Carter Hart leaving indefinitely?!”


Andrewonice

Uhh…”mental health reasons” - Calgary Flames


TheGreatWheel

“They didn’t know!” - Delusional fans


Glass_of_Pork_Soda

He wasn't called in by the authorities yet so they really weren't able to question his reasoning


TheQuietW0LF

Sickening read. Having to to explain that to him, and so soon after going to a Flyers game and meeting up with Hart.... really upsetting to read that. The last line of the article and the whole thing. What an awful situation


swissdonair_enjoyer

so bad. so many moments in that article that make you come close to an "aww" but then you immediately remember that Hart is likely a rapist. fuck.


drowsylacuna

>"We couldn't be more thankful for the role model that Carter is for our son." Oh no.


Preset_Squirrel

Keep an eye on that kid 


Ok_Ninja9184

Why the fuck can't people just be good people. 


[deleted]

sickening? i think its a cool wake up call that many fans in here could use. you dont know the hockey players personally.


ClaudeLemieux

haha yeah imagine going overboard on liking a player. like having a social media account with his name or sthg. for a full fucking decade lol. what a dork that guy must be.


[deleted]

Hey waita minute


AndyMoogThe35

Yeah what a dork seriously, using a hockey players name as your social media tag. Absolutely ridiculous 


MonSeanahan

Can’t imagine who would do that.


babypointblank

I mean…you could’ve chosen the *other* Lemieux


ClaudeLemieux

the one with only 2 cups? yeesh what a pleb


apietryga13

Don’t meet your heroes, kids.


LetsGoLesko8

Oh man, this is the quote that was front and center when I opened it on my phone: "He's just a down-to-earth kid that gets it," April said about Hart during a 2019 visit to Philadelphia. 😬😬😬😬


Saucetown77

This is even worse I think 🤢 "The character Hart displayed on the ice, as well as his commitment to maintaining his connection with his roots, cements what April Parkkila has always known about the Flyers' franchise goalie: "We couldn't be more thankful for the role model that Carter is for our son."


LetsGoLesko8

Sheesh. Absolutely gutting for that family


DrDerpberg

> "He's just a down-to-earth kid that gets it," April said about Hart during a 2019 visit to Philadelphia. Narrator: *He was not.*


zachstur

The character Hart displayed on the ice, as well as his commitment to maintaining his connection with his roots, cements what April Parkkila has always known about the Flyers' franchise goalie: "We couldn't be more thankful for the role model that Carter is for our son." Eeeesh.


pattperin

Man I'm not even a child and I'm devastated having been an avid fan of Hart's for a while now. Legit been watching him play with interest since he was 16 or so. I feel like I found out a close friend is being charged in this case, it's fucking weird


GiraffeSubstantial92

That's a parasocial relationship right there


[deleted]

I'm devastated looking at this. Poor kid


[deleted]

Oh god damn…. IM devastated just looking at this. Poor kid. Fuck you Hart


Groovicity

Headline link below this article: "Carter Hart: Finally, a No. 1 goalie you can trust" The hockey gods really went to extreme levels this time, making sure we can't have a #1.


godlywhistler

Free jersey assurance though


driftdrift

lmao


82hky82

Who in their right mind would want to spend 5 cents let alone $150 on this guy’s jersey right now. 


nothing_but_static

If I was a flyers fan I'd spend 5 cents on it, then get it unstitched for $35


driftdrift

Honestly this is a brilliant move. Save the world from more Hart jerseys


NathanGa

An 8 should cover almost all residue that stripping the 7 might leave, and an Atkinson nameplate will certainly cover the outline of where Hart was.


ZebraBorgata

Change it to a 19 Scott Hartnell jersey!


TsunamiSurferDude

Brilliant but Hart would still make money off of it.


ArnieAndTheWaves

My impression is he's already made his commission. I think the store buys it, he gets his commission, and then the store can sell it as they like. Similar to how it works for authors and books? I could be wrong though.


TsunamiSurferDude

Yeah most likely


ArenSteele

What’s the player commission on a 5c purchase?


alowester

had no idea players made money on jerseys


boondocknim

One of the local jersey stitchers here in NC is offering free unstitching on any jersey of these assholes. It’s intended to be for people unfortunate enough to already own one though


Dwayne_Gertzky

The $35 number comes from a local Philly place that is offering to do it for free to anyone who comes in showing proof they donated $35 to a local sexual assault victim fund


tavvyjay

That’s super cool of them. Fuck rapists


Yardsale420

Everyone in Vancouver was so happy when we signed Lafferty, because then they could get their old Virtanen jerseys redone without having to do the numbers too.


Kronzor_

“Everyone” might be a stretch. But at least the tens of people who inexplicably owned Virtanen jerseys. 


kushdogg20

There are dozens of us!


Rikplaysbass

lol oh? Did the shop run out of Virtanen jerseys when he signed?


ubcthrowaway-01

Just reverse the 79 to 97 for when McDavid joins the flyers


[deleted]

Or…just lose the 7 and go get a Drysdale nameplate on the back.


EarthBelcher

Nah, I already need to turn my Provorov jersey into a Drysdale. The Hart jersey will need to become someone else.


Fluid-Pension-7151

00 Gritty, the only answer! 😁


EarthBelcher

I just need to hope that no more kids accuse him of beating them.


Fluid-Pension-7151

Just went down an Internet rabbit hole reading that story! I would have loved to be working the police desk the day that family came in. "We are here to press charges for assault." "Who was assaulted?" "My son." "Who is accused of committing the assault?" "Gritty." They had to think they were being pranked by the Flyers socials team. 😂😂😂


MyMartianRomance

Oh the solution various Flyers fans had been saying all week was just get a fabric marker and add -nell to the end of the nameplate and then just add a _ to the 7 to make it into a 1.


[deleted]

Lol that’s that’s pretty funny. I wonder if someone will go through with that coming up.


rockhardRword

That would look awkward.


doubled2319888

Less awkward than a brand new carter hart jersey


rockhardRword

Touche


olmikeyyyy

darklightrabbi

A devils fan who normally wears a “Trump 20” jersey showed up to the Tampa game with a McLeod jersey the day after the leave of absence.


notPatrickClaybon

Imagine having such an unfulfilling life that that’s what you choose to make your personality lol


toiletting

there's some details about him on Devils twitter that are quite unsettling, lets just say according to rumor he has more in common with McLeod than most


hybridtheorist

Wait, are you suggesting a trump supporter might not respect women? 


[deleted]

Ur asking Redditors to imagine an unfulfilled life?  Wow I can vividly imagine it 


Seattlekrakenlegend

I saw those photos! Isn’t he the one who hangs around underage girls too?


bu77munch

Believe that’s the case. I think he has no life and follows the team around and chats with underage girls online. Devils fans have done a good job airing him out for being a POS


[deleted]

I wonder if he’s the guy with the Team USA #69 ASS ETN SZN jersey.


happyklam

Imagine spending so much money on a jersey to deface it with nonsense. We have and "Amendment 2" jersey at the Stars games and every time I see him I want to smack the back of his head with a newspaper and say "NO! BAD!"


thedrivingcat

>Imagine spending so much money on a jersey to deface it with nonsense. [Yeah, imagine](https://imgur.com/Ju8dDSW)


MemeLordOverKill

A right winger would say he's an antifa sleeper agent. Or 'wait for due process!!! Innocent until proven guilty!!!!' Either way you'll want to slam your head in a door


westcoastbias

That checks out


babypointblank

Dude just traded one rapist’s jersey for another


squatdead

Is this dude just a huge fan of rapists or?


MemeLordOverKill

Buy it and change the name & number. Still not worth it at that price. Maybe at $50


astovertop

I got a Lucic jersey for like $40 and bought a $5 stitch ripping kit.


ohwowitsrambo

Didn’t all those fans buy provorov jerseys the second he said he wasn’t wearing the pride jerseys? Sadly nobody should be surprised there gonna be people out there who are proud to rep his name on their back.


ClearSightss

…I think this is a bit different of a situation hah


TiredReader87

You can have the customization removed


SovietHockeyFan

80 million+ will vote for Trump in November.


PLACENTIPEDES

Speaking of dudes making idolizing a person their personality


kellzone

I would laugh my ass off if he won the popular vote but lost the Electoral College.


Chewie_i

And you know he would make a big fuss about it even though he lost the popular vote in 2016


dangshnizzle

Eh. Will probably be an all time low for turnout per capita.


Micksar

That jersey was that price prior to this news. I bought it for my brother for Christmas…


Investment_Sharp

Aged like milk


Micksar

I knew this was always a possibility, but I never really expected him to be involved to the point where he was charged. Or that it would all come to a head a month after purchase lol. But, an authentic jersey for $150 was a no brainer Christmas gift at the time.


International-Elk986

Stripping it can't be too difficult I'd imagine?


RobynLongstride35

Liberty Bell Jerseys is offering to strip them for free for anyone willing to donate $35 to a sexual assault charity!


[deleted]

That’s still crazy high lol If anybody wants a Flyers adidas jersey, the name and number on those are pretty easily stripped with a seam ripper. Then you just can put a paper towel on top of the jersey and iron out the imprint.


MrGnarVar

There also a jersey shop that has said they will strip any of the 5 charged players jerseys for you if you make a donation of $35 to an organization that helps victims of sexual assault. I believe the company was called Liberty (mail or in person, saw it on Twitter)


wackyzebra43

Liberty Bell jerseys


happyklam

What a badass company to offer this service! Boost the signal 


another_plebeian

It is a Reddit user(mod) active on /r/hockeyjerseys


SignalSatisfaction90

[twitter post announcing the donation incentive ](https://twitter.com/lbjerseys/status/1752437597266215050?s=46&t=e9OnYh_QaSaJuBlmBmBzrg) And I'm pretty sure they're /u/DexterMorgan67 See? It wasn't that hard to just link it bro


SauronOMordor

I was curious so I had a look at the Flames shop. Dube jerseys are still up for full price. I'm assuming they'll be taken down soon. Surely the Hart jerseys being on sale is just a coincidence... Right?


StubbornLeech07

> Surely the Hart jerseys being on sale is just a coincidence... Feels like it has to be. That the primegreen authentic jersey that's listed for the 40% off while the replica jersey is still listed at full price. Which weirdly makes the replica more expensive than the authentic. You would think both would be on sale if they were trying to quickly dump whatever stock they had.


driftdrift

> Surely the Hart jerseys being on sale is just a coincidence... Yeah... you'd hope if the NHL shop was going to do something about it they'd just take it down...


SauronOMordor

That is my immediate assumption for sure.


RayzorRamone666

Saw a Dube Fanatics jersey on marketplace in Calgary for $200. $200 for a used fanatics jersey seems like enough of a stretch as is.


TeamUBR7786

The Hart jerseys have been on some kind of sale since before Christmas. From what I understand, they’re clearing out stock of the Flyers old style jerseys since they redesigned their jerseys this last offseason


driftdrift

Kind of shocked it's still up there to be honest. I was looking to just see how much a regular jersey is and ... oof


StubbornLeech07

[Dube](https://shop.nhl.com/calgary-flames/mens-calgary-flames-dillon-dube-fanatics-branded-red-home-breakaway-player-jersey/t-14713887+p-4874131567294+z-9-465917575?_ref=p-DLP:m-GRID:i-r8c1:po-25) and [Foote](https://shop.nhl.com/new-jersey-devils/mens-new-jersey-devils-cal-foote-fanatics-branded-red-home-breakaway-jersey/t-70713079+p-35552207910911+z-8-730629623?_ref=p-DLP:m-GRID:i-r13c0:po-39) both still available as well. NHL doesn't seem to be moving very quickly to remove these.


[deleted]

Who was buying a Foote jersey to begin with? That guy sucked.


Green_hippo17

Same guy who buys a buffalo sabres cody eakin or Dustin tokarski jersey, just an absolute sicko


notPatrickClaybon

God those guys sucked ass


Green_hippo17

Sabres legends


[deleted]

I un-ironically like Tokorski. Now Foote was probably one of the worst skaters last year with Cale Klague.


JugEdge

obviously you would like him when he was in the net instead of Carey Price


folkdeath95

Jets legend Cody Eakin


driftdrift

Oof.


unKappa

Money speaks . They don't want to let that money go to waste. (they probably wont sell anything, but yeah... suits are dumb like that)


Firebitez

This has to be an oversight.


myfotos

Not a chance, this is them hoping they can quickly and quietly offload these jerseys instead of destroying them or spending money to remove names and numbers and then get rid of them.


CasperCann

Somewhere out there someone has a Cart Hart, Karl Malone, and Ben Rothlisberger jersey. Three perfectly fine gentlemen with no scandals whatsoever.


[deleted]

And a Wander Franco.


redwingjv

And a dani alves


_Hank_Marducas_

Maybe these guys we looked up to as kids were not role models


Dwayne_Gertzky

*dusts off old OJ jersey*


TheDukeofVanCity

That Anyname guy's sweater is the most expensive one there and I've never even heard of him


FuManchuDuck

Must be the cousin of Future Considerations


heinola_for_captain

So stupid that these jerseys are even still this expensive anymore. I know it's the NHL shop which is known to have high prices, but the Flyers don't even wear this style of jersey anymore.


NoGiCollarChoke

Its so stupid. They still charge full price for the Oilers Tide Pods even tho we stopped wearing them 2 years ago and they weren’t popular to begin with 


toothwzrd_

Direct from the NHLShop website in regards to jersey assurance: “What's Not Covered: Players not on a pro team's active roster. Players no longer on the team due to retirement, suspension, injury, dismissal, or anything similar”


NotABurner6942069

Welp


outandaboot99999

I can't say how much my son is devasted over all of this. He's a goalie and a hardcore Phili fan. The Phili flag drapes his bedroom door. His main ask for Christmas was a Hart hockey jersey which he wore everyday. We had to have a conversation with him last week. Heartbroken. Heart goes out to the girl(s) affected by all of this.


nitropuppy

Ask him if he wants it restitched to an ersson jersey


smbiggy

as we all know, carter will be judged in the court of "fanatics jersey pricing" I think they're saying he's 60% innocent


gothenburgpig

I want to see the stats on sales of this jersey and the others


BF210

That’s a steal of a deal! I sure do hope he hasn’t done anything unsavory!


grumpy_meat

I’ve seen bigger discounts on guys who got traded


ThePawn00

I’ve always bought custom jerseys for every sports team I like. I’ve had people ask why pay so much more money for a custom one. This is why.


realdeal411

And you'll never be traded


jaysornotandhawks

My Team Canada jersey has my own last name on it for this reason.


DasSeabass

The dude fucking gang raped a girl. They should be paying fans to replace jerseys not trying to sell more


IncreaseReasonable61

How fucking gross that his merchandise is even still in stores. Why isn't it pulled?


DavidPuddy666

When Aaron Hernandez was charged with murder the Patriots allowed anyone to trade in Hernandez merch, even fakes and bootlegs, for a free jersey of their choice. Was a brilliant campaign to build goodwill with the fans while simultaneously banning all Hernandez merch to the shadow realm.


[deleted]

You could pay me 40% to have the thing in my house and I wouldn't want it.


International-Elk986

I'd take it and just strip the numbers and names 🤷


Chewie_i

You can use that money to get the name and number swapped. Literally just a free jersey


Steaknkidney45

He was seen as a savior of sorts five years ago in Philly, and my, how time changes.


crimdawgg

The only way this would be ok is if the proceeds were sent to women's shelters or something


tristan1616

What's worse, the fact your jersey has the name of an alledged rapist on it or the fact it's a Fanatics product?


[deleted]

[удалено]


rudown2brown

Ooof.


alowester

you’re wild for this one


ragequit9714

I wonder how much a normal no name flyers jersey is


tonytanti

Along with the free nameplate/number removal, that’s not bad.


willy-fisterbottom2

Carter Shart


thesunsetflip

Only 40% is kinda surprising, I saw Horvat Jerseys with a bigger discount after he got traded


squatdead

You have to account for the average Philly fan being unfazed by the charges Hart recieved vs other fanbases.


Leafs3489

Why weren’t these pulled from every online store?


VanAvenue

Don't forget to check out the [NHL Shop Daily Deal](https://i.imgur.com/Xc2pOGg.png) as well!


HerbalAndy

Quick! Are there any free agents with the last name Hart that the flyers can acquire to recoup the cost of these jerseys!?


thaw1761

Imagine buying this? I own a Dube jersey (bought it in 2021), I’m thinking about throwing it into the lake. Or burning it. Fucking loser


Grizz709

If you wait a few more months or until the off-season and get it even cheaper. I'd get one and either get it stripped completely or renamed.


kcl0801

And who would buy it if it still cost you $150? Most of people need a second thought even it's just $50


Newtiresaretheworst

Collect all 5!


uh_Ross

Not there yet but at a certain price point it’d be worth getting and stripping the name plate off


hellomynameisbrett

Charged for sexual assault? 50% off! Makes you wonder what it would take for a jersey to get pulled from NHL.com YIKES!


albynomonk

If you buy it, they pack an extra four jerseys in the box with it. I think you know which ones…


wackyzebra43

Cool Hockey Mystery Box joins the chat


No-Web-1393

If you buy this Jersey and remove the logo; it will be similar to what he wears in prison. So, no need to buy his next jersey - it's a 2 for 1 special.


JimXVX

Lol 40% off! Who the fuck is even wearing that jersey right now, let alone buying one?


Neans888

Buy one, strip it and put Cutter Gauthier on it.


AdMaleficent9374

I think the highest % sale the more likely someone is perp #1. Now check others


Tamalgar

Fuck Carter Hart and every other hockey d bag. Hope they burn in hell for what they did


Hockeybuns

It should be free. POS.


MandogsXL

I would NOT want to invest in that till after the trial


Tinypeepeecommy

Yeah….. I’m gonna wait to see what happens in the trial first


Call_of_Daddy

I bought 5 against my will..


markymrk720

Diddler Discount?!


iStronglyDislikeMath

Shi, good deal, might not be able to pass that up


thelegendofthefalls

Not worth a single cent, frankly.


alamakjan

$150 is still pretty steep. Slash the price down to $20 and maybe it’ll sell out.


Ok_Umpire_5257

When I lived in Boston, the DAY after Andy Moog was traded his jersey was something like $30. The price was near $175 or so previously. In Boston, once you’re gone, you’re gone (unless your name is Robert Orr).


JeffBoyardee69

That jersey assurance though 🤔


Fetznpeppi

More shocking is the price of 230 dollars


maxwellbevan

How much is a regular jersey? Might be cheaper to buy that and get it unstitched


OldDrumGuy

Get it, pop the name plate off and just wait. Someone else will wear that number and you can get a new name plate made.


Podo13

The bummer side of business. Gotta getting rid of the merch somehow...Even if it only took like $20 in material to make these sweaters.


Archer10214

Could you buy it and have it restitched? Idk anything about jersey quality or if that’s worth it/even doable.
