George's expo last year was the the first one I went to. And he's such a welcoming guy. Great to see everyone at the expo. Picked up a Nico hischier card that photo matches a jersey I have.
Also I got to lay hands on a caps fanatics pro sample at the meigray table at South Jersey game worn expo. There was always a second layer of reinforcement on the elbow on the adidas. The difference now is that it is now extended down the posterior forearm making the sleeves a tad heavier. The shoulders always were made of two layer as well. The difference is that there's no dimples. And it's made of similar material as the rest of the jersey. The nhl shield has a more rubbery matte look to them which can't really tell unless you get close. Anyway, the template/cut and stitching are essentially the same. In terms of fabric. I don't think I could tell by eye or blind feel the difference. While it's probably not made of recycled plastic like primegreen (which I noticed on average gave more wear then the pre primegreen adidas), it's not like going back to the fabrics in the Reebok era.
Great time! Was a pleasure talking with you guys.
