 Hockey players – Photo credits: Sportsnet

· Neck Tag

A fake or knockoff jersey will have a distorted maple leaf.

Apart from that, the reebok neck tag will try and emulate a premier neck tag and does not come in number sizing.

An authentic or premier hockey jersey will have a tag with lettered sizing.

· NHL Logo

On the front of the neck line, you will find a thin rubber NHL logo for an authentic jersey.

Knockoff jerseys attempt to replicate the thin rubber by replacing it with a sewn piece of cloth.

You will also note that NHL switched from Reebok to Nike so most new and authentic NHL jerseys come from Nike.

New authentic jerseys eliminate the use of the tag and print the size right on the collar of the NHL jersey.
