For quite a while I have been running an unofficial competition with myself: what is the ugliest piece of NHL merchandise I can find? Guys, I am PRETTY SURE that I have found it!

It is amazing in its hideousness! I mean, the two yellow colours for the hat and the scarf/trim don't even match.

...also I have been looking at it for so long it's starting to look less hideous and slightly... cute? Help me.

[delurker]

It is quite cheerful! But remember, they expect you to wear it. With a "carol" playing. And while it is moving. Wear it to a game. >:(

[dzurlady]

It would be super annoying to be stuck behind someone wearing it!

With a "carol" playing. And while it is moving.
D: D: D:
A holiday enthused carol no less! (What does that even mean, did they just put some sleigh bells in?)

[delurker]

Motion sickness ahoy!

I really don't know what "holiday enthused" means, but I do fear that you are correct wrt sleigh bells. In, like, whatever the 8-bit equivalent of sound is.

[slashybits]

That really is impressively horrible. So are you going to get one? LOL

[delurker]

Haha I have a follow-up theory that they make some kind of eh merchandise, and then they make really fug merchandise so you feel better about the rest of it. (The longer I look, the less reliable my taste is! /o\)

At first I was like "Nah, it's not so bad." Then I saw it was a hat. Damn.

[delurker]

ikr? Like, as an ornament for your porch - okay, I can see it. But as a hat? A moving, singing hat? eeeek.

[meinnim]

I'm boggling over 'Shout' as a holiday tune. And that the hat moves side to side as it plays. But the snowman happy face is cute.

[delurker]

I think that the cost of licencing "Shout" and some sleighbells was probably cheaper than... idk, getting the intern to sing a carol. Aren't most carols out of copyright? Can they really cost that much?

The smiling face is cute! Just - you already have a face which smiles. Is not one enough?

[shihadchick]

Oh dear sweet lord. That... is hideous. I don't think you're going to be able to top that, nope. O____________O

[delurker]

And yet I am sure the NHL will give it a go! /o\
