Hot in the Shop – Week of May 23rd, 2016 – A Mixed Bag!

Hot in the Shop – Week of May 23rd, 2016 – A Mixed Bag! – We are recouping from a fantastic GTS Distribution/Panini America Customer Appreciation Day event at the NFLPA Rookie Premiere. Look for a recap post from Go GTS Live’s very own, Ivan Lovegren, later today.
The defending NBA champions, the Golden State Warriors, were blown out by the OKC Thunder yesterday, 133-105. The legacy of the team’s record setting regular season is in jeopardy as “it don’t mean a thing if you ain’t got that ring”. Oklahoma leads the series 2-1, with a pivotal game four coming tomorrow.
The Toronto Raptors got a much needed win over the Cleveland Cavaliers this weekend. That series is also 2-1 in favor of the Cavs.
In some stunning NHL drama last night, the Pittsburgh Penguins appeared poised to take a 3-2 series lead over the Tampa Bay Lightning. However, a late goal in the third and a quick overtime goal put the Lightning in the driver seat.
It’s another eclectic mix of new product releases this week. Here is a look at what will be Hot in the Shop for the Week of May 23rd, 2016.
