This weekend, we were privileged enough for him to drop pictures of the new Fanatics design for the 2025 Winter Classic.
This uniform is the first specialized jersey released by Fanatics, as in 2024 they take over from Adidas as the NHL's new manufacturer. Many fans have been skeptical about the quality of the jerseys with Fanatics at the helm, but we like what we've seen so far.
As you can see, the Blackhawks uniform has decided to take from all areas of the Blackhawks' history( Crest, Stars, Piping), and this time it's red.
All of the other Blackhawks Winter Classic uniforms have been Black and White, so this is a welcome change.
As you can see, the Blackhawk crest is an old-school look, with four stars from the city of Chicago flag. While there's piping across the chest and arms, but not gaudy like a barber shop pole.
There are necklaces, to give it a more classic feel as well.
While the new jersey is a classic look, let's hope the status quo regarding the Winter Classic changes for the team, as they're currently 0-4 in Winter Classic games.
The Blackhawks played the Detroit Red Wings at Wrigley Field the last time on January 1st, 2009 with a 6-4 loss during the 2009 Winter Classic. Will this be the year, the Blackhawks win a Winter Classic game as well?
It'd be fitting, as Bedard leads the way in new gear, to defeat a re-tooling St. Louis Blues team.
