Bruins Unveil Throwback Unis for 2019 Winter Classic

The Boston Bruins this morning unveiled the uniform they’ll wear at the 2019 Winter Classic.

For the outdoor game at Notre Dame Stadium, the Bruins will wear a uniform based off of what the club wore in the 1930s – a large dark brown “B” in the center of the white jersey with dark brown shoulders. The Bruins also wore a version of this uniform during the NHL’s 75th anniversary celebrations in 1991-1992.

There are some differences, the sleeve striping is completely new and could be a reference to the sock striping the team wore back then and the inside collar contains six shamrocks each containing a year in which the Bruins have won the Stanley Cup.

Looking back to the 1930s you can see the similiarities:

The Chicago Blackhawks, Boston’s opponent at the Winter Classic, are set to unveil their uniforms for the game this afternoon at around 4:30pm ET. The Blackhawks are expected to be wearing black and white uniforms, modelled after their uniforms of the 1920s and early 30s.
