It's not gouging if you don't buy. I've been a Flames fan for 30 years, and it's never even crossed my mind to buy a jersey.
If there are some Hurricanes fans out there who just have to own each version of the jersey, then yeah - a fool and his money are soon parted. And I guess modern pro sports is built on lots and lots of those fools. I'm old enough to remember the days when only children bought team collectibles and regalia. Back when players made $80,000 a year.
