Can you please define "Official"?

For their 06-07 UD Artifacts and Trilogy sets, UD used many retired NHL players in their memorabilia sets. They provided for some very colorful pieces. However, they are incorrectly certified on the back. The back of the cards state that the jerseys were worn in "Official NHL games". In this example, Ray Bourque's card has a red and white stripe:



Bourque never wore that type of jersey in an official NHL game. However, he did wear it in an official Hockey Hall of Fame Legends Classics game that was sponsored by UD:



Seeing as how the HHOF and NHL are different entities, I'm not sure how they can claim it as being an official NHL game.
