"This partnership with Duluth Pack is very special to us because it gives us the opportunity to add another first class partner who is passionate about helping veterans in need. Plus, we both continue to have a love for the game of Ice Hockey," said Sheehan.

“It is an honor to continuously partner with Operation Hat Trick. As an American business, it is a privilege to support those who have served our wonderful country and give back to them with proceeds of our exclusive collection going to MACV.” - Tom Sega, President and CEO of Duluth Pack.
