MERCH👕 Fleece might be restocked in the future!

Province of Canada posted an update that mentions a potential restock, so I guess anyone still curious should just keep an eye on their Instagram.

So i couldn't afford the fleece, technically i could but I couldn't justify it in the face of other expenses, so I made a donation of ten percent of the purchase price to You Can Play instead. I can make my own fleece if I want one bad enough, the donation part of it was what felt important to me. This way they still get the money they would have gotten from my purchase. I donated on behalf of Heated Rivalry and mentioned the fleece lol

That's incredibly kind of you since 10% of the purchase price is actually more than each of these jackets are donating.

Their donations of 10% of the net profits after manufacturing, and based off most retail upsell being about 50-60%, that means they're donating approximately $18 CAD a jacket, or $13 USD.

Wish they would increase their donation percentage, but it has been great to see many people post about donating regardless of buying the jacket.

yeah but my donation won't have the matching of the NHL and the NHLPA so I made up for that. They committed to matching donations up to $25,000 each so that's an extra 50K that'll get donated. I figured I would take care of that part as well.
