Also where’s the J merch?

Also need hats TBH

Alright so I don’t mean to sound negative here. I feel like this is a great starting off point. There are some peculiar items available here. And then there are some omission I believe would be big money earners. I’m not sure if you’re working on it or logistically if it’s possible. Here are some ideas I have that I think people would pay money for:

-Team hats
-Beanies
-Shirts with logos and player names/# on back
-Practice jerseys with logo
-Actual Team Jerseys (stitch or even screen prints)

I have no idea about the first part but as somebody who has frequently bought stuff from redbubble, the items you see are the items they basically offer for all artwork. They don’t do graphics on back, and they don’t offer hockey jerseys of any sort. They also just offer all those “peculiar” items so I don’t think HO or anybody was like “you know what we definitely need is an Edmonton blizzard iPad case”

I would also definitely buy shirseys as I mentioned above but there are limitations on what sites provide printing services without the artist having to put up significant money up front to make a custom product, whereas redbubble is basically just “plug your images in and we will sell products with your image on them and pay you part of the proceeds”

Either the artist or owner of each of the logos in the SHL store gave permission for them to be used.

Could you maybe talk a little bit about the financial side of this as well, like how much of the sales is going to the store, how much is used for the site, how much goes to the designer etc..? Or is it simply "everything goes to the store and a 5% markup for the league? In that case I for one would be in favor of a higher mark-up to both gross some more money for the league and to be able to maybe pay the designers and other people working on this. Maybe 10% going to the side and 10% going to the people involved?

5% to donations, the rest to redbubble. We spoke to each logo rights owner and people who designed shl logos before proceeding with this. Everyone agreed to this without compensation to the creators. The base prices aren't super cheap for things so we didn't want to have a high markup. We also aren't considering this a sole source of money for the site, it's something we set up because people would want it and its cool to have some merch out there, the bit of money going into the donation account is a nice bonus.
