The NHL unveiled black and white-themed jerseys Wednesday that will be worn for the NHL All-Star Game on Jan. 26 at SAP Center in San Jose, California.
The jerseys feature team logos, which is a change from the past when the NHL shield was used.
Prior to the announcement, Adidas already had put the jerseys up on their website to purchase.
From threat into thread.
