The NHL will look a little different next season.
Not only will the league have a new team in the Vegas Golden Knights, but it also will have new uniforms for all 31 teams. The change, which was made due to the NHL’s switch to Adidas, resulted in some slight changes across the board, but nothing too dramatic.
“Specifically created for elite performance, we’ve designed the ADIZERO Authentic NHL jerseys to deliver advanced innovation and technical design for the world’s best hockey players,” Head of Adidas Hockey Dan Near said, via an NHL.com press release. “We build products for the creator athlete. Our mission is to help athletes perform better and we look forward to making our on-ice debut this season with the new Lighter, Cooler, and Stronger Adidas Hockey ADIZERO Authentic NHL jerseys.”
The Boston Bruins shared a quick video of their new uniforms, and they look a lot like the classic B’s jerseys from over the years.

And one of the big moments during the big reveal was when the Golden Knights’ inaugural jerseys were displayed.
