For $200 the nhl.com one is a joke. For the same price(ish) you can order from Fanattic or River City and get a premier with stitched lettering. If you wait until the off season River City usually has premier (stitched) for $150-180.
The logo is always heat transfer/glued on the premier no matter where you get it from. It's the numbering/lettering that's stitched.
If you're talking an actual on-ice authentic, you're looking at $350+ with a name IIRC. You could however also look at a game worn from Fanattic for a similar price, and it'd be game worn.

Sorry I should have been more clear. I'm wondering if the authentic are that much higher quality to justify the additional 150 plus shipping. The authentic I have is amazing, just wondering what the quality of the premier is comparatively. The premier I have doesn't have a name, and although it's held up well I wasn't sure if a heat transferred name and number would last. Obviously I'll steer clear from NHL store considering new info. Would you happen to know if Fanattic ships out of country?
I had no idea NHL.com premiers would be any different than the Fanattic premiers. Good to know! Thank you!
