Crosby Led NHL Jersey Sales In '13; Only One Player From A Canadian Team Makes List

The NHL yesterday released the top 20 most-popular jerseys on Shop.NHL.com for '13, and Penguins C Sidney Crosby "tops the list," according to Brian Stubits of CBSSPORTS.com. The list includes "sales from the NHL shop, not from other outlets or even the individual teams," which "might explain" why Maple Leafs RW Phil Kessel at No. 17 is the only player on a Canadian team in the top 20. There is "no shortage of Kessel, Joffrey Lupul, James van Riemsdyk, etc. sweaters in and around Toronto or Sedin sweaters in Vancouver." Stubits: "All you have to do is look at the list of the NHL's top-selling jerseys and you can understand why we see the same teams on the national broadcasts all the time" (CBSSPORTS.com, 1/6).
