“This partnership brings together two global brands, working together to grow a global game,” said Christopher H. Koch, chief executive officer of New Era . “While we have been working with individual clubs for decades, we are excited for our new agreement with the league and look forward to creating special moments for fans and players in North America and around the world.”

New Era’s relationship with the NHL dates back to the ’90s, when the organizations were connected through their shared ties to the Buffalo Sabres, the NHL club in New Era’s hometown which plays its games about a mile from the company’s headquarters. Since then, New Era has produced gear for several NHL franchises but the new deal allows it to manufacture for the entire league.
