Blackhawks throw it back to 1934 with their black and white Winter Classic uniforms

McKenzie: When the Blackhawks missed the playoffs I assumed there would be changes



The Chicago Blackhawks and the Boston Bruins will kick off 2019 with an outdoor matchup at Notre Dame Stadium in the 12th edition of the NHL Winter Classic.

Early Thursday afternoon, the Bruins got the day started by officially unveiling their uniforms for this season’s edition of the event after images leaked online a couple of days ago, and the Blackhawks followed suit later that day.



Chicago will throw it back to their black and white uniforms from 1934 for their Winter Classic uniforms as they pay homage to the first ever team in franchise history to win the Stanley Cup.



As slick as the entire uniform looks, one of the cooler parts of the entire jersey is hidden, as you’ll find every year the team has won the Stanley Cup, as well as the classic end zone pattern at Notre Dame Stadium, emblazoned onto the neckline.
