The NHL and Adidas reached an agreement for the apparel company to provide jerseys for all teams. A leaked video of the Nashville Predators’ jersey sent fans spinning.
Apparel companies and sports leagues often work to create new, vibrant jerseys for their teams. The NHL recently agreed with Adidas to make jerseys for the league, with a big reveal today. Well, a video of the Nashville Predators’ potential jersey was leaked. And fans took to Twitter to respond.
The problem? The video was removed shortly after. It may create a public relations nightmare. Still, fans are speaking their mind as if the jersey is real. If the jersey is real, the Predators will have a problem.
The fans do not like them. And that is not a good look for the team. Here is the leaked look.
Now, the look is a bit different, removing the piping along the chest and less blue all together. Fans have shared their opinions.

Here is what we need to remember: this may not be the jersey. While the link was posted to NHL.com and the Predators’ website, it is no longer there. If it is the jersey, sales for new attire from fans will go down.
