The Blackhawks will wear new jerseys in 2019, according to Icethetics.
It’s unknown what will change for the Blackhawks’ jersey, but it’s likely Adidas will alter the unpopular collar that resembles a clerical collar. Chicago hasn’t had a lace-up collard since 1965, according to the report.
Adidas signed a deal with the NHL to become the official manufacturer of the league’s uniforms in April 2015, taking over the role from Reebok, which had been the NHL’s outfitter since 2007. For the 2016-17 season, Adidas only had home and road uniforms for all 31 NHL teams before introducing alternates this season.
