The Hockey Hall of Fame wants George Springer's batting gloves
The Blue Jays veteran outfielder has had an incredible bounce back season in 2025 as he is seen as the Blue Jays MVP this season and it might be due to his Hartford Whalers batting gloves.
Campbell announced on social media that the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto want Springer's batting gloves at the end of the year to put on display which he has accepted to donate them to the hall.

George Springer will donate his Hartford Whalers-themed batting gloves to them at season's end.
Springer was a big fan of the Whalers growing up until they moved to Carolina in 1997 as he only lived 15 minutes away from the arena and has been a big hockey fan since he was a kid.

"It actually might be a hockey-player mentality. Springer has loved the sport since he was a child. He grew up 15 minutes from the Hartford Civic Center, home to the NHL's Whalers until 1997, and often went to games with his dad." -Singh
There is a good chance Springer is inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame once his career is done but it looks like he will also be in the Hockey Hall of Fame long before that.
If Springer can get the Blue Jays to rally and start playing well, they have a real chance at winning the World Series which would make this piece of memoribilia that much better.
