Would you wait in line in person to buy a sold-out team jersey?
Devils fans lined up outside Devils Den at Prudential Center in Newark to buy the team's Hometown Remix jerseys when they went on sale Monday at 11 a.m. ET. Jerseys bearing certain players' names had already sold out online before the doors opened.
Why it matters
The early lines and rapid online sellouts show strong demand for the team's merchandise in its home market. The experience also revived frustration many fans felt with the 2024 Stadium Series jersey online checkout.
The Hellebuyck jersey sold out online in about one minute, while the first fan arrived at 6:30 a.m. for an 11 a.m. release. Total units sold and online inventory levels were not disclosed.

Devils Den at Prudential Center
The official New Jersey Devils team store located inside Prudential Center in Newark, which sells team merchandise to fans.
The details
Store employees unboxed items and arranged shelves after 10 a.m. and kept Hometown Remix merchandise out of sight until release time. The collection includes jerseys, satin-style jackets, hoodies, shirts and hats, and many fans who waited in person said they could not see the products before the store opened.
Timeline
2024: Stadium Series jersey release with online checkout frustrations.
Monday, 6:30 a.m. ET: First fan arrived outside Devils Den.
Monday, 11 a.m. ET: Hometown Remix jerseys released at Devils Den.
Roadmap
The Hometown Remix release follows the 2024 Stadium Series jersey launch, which drew similar complaints about online checkout for New Jersey Devils merchandise. The repeat of online sellouts and in-person lines shows the team's ongoing challenge in meeting fan demand for its jerseys.
Fans who want a Hometown Remix item should expect limited online stock for popular names, so in-store purchases may be the only option for some. Shoppers planning a trip to Devils Den should arrive early, as lines formed hours before the 11 a.m. release.
The takeaway
Fans seeking popular Devils merchandise at release should plan for early arrival and check for in-store availability, since online sellouts can happen within minutes.
