#WinterClassic #NHLPeachy #FashionAlert New York Rangers Unveil 2018 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic Uniform Rangers’ NHL Winter Classic Jersey Available Today at MSG Team Stores And Shop.NHL.com

The New York Rangers’ Original Six heritage, their rich history in New York, and the team’s intrastate rivalry with the Buffalo Sabres served as key influences in the design of the uniform the team will wear in the 2018 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic® on Jan. 1 at Citi Field in New York. The NHL Winter Classic jersey will be available for purchase starting today at all MSG Team Stores and online at Shop.NHL.com.


The Rangers’ NHL Winter Classic adidas adizero Authentic Pro jersey features the team’s traditional color scheme of red, white and blue, with navy blue replacing Rangers Royal blue as a nod to the roots of the game outdoors. The stair step font is inspired by the diagonal RANGERS lettering worn in the late 1920’s. The red NY is a tribute to this year’s intrastate rivalry game. 

The nameplate and numbers are white and designed to align graphically to the crest. The sleeve and waist striping is inspired by the Rangers’ uniforms of the early 1930’s, with the higher placement of the sleeve stripes and the solid white collar a staple of that era.

The pants remain the signature Rangers red, but the detailing along the sides and around the leg opening is a simplified version of their current pant piping, reflecting the simpler design aesthetic of the jersey and sock.

The Rangers will face the Sabres in the 2018 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic® on New Year’s Day at Citi Field, home of the New York Mets. The game will be broadcast live on NBC, Sportsnet and TVA Sports at 1 p.m. ET. The 2018 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic® continues the tradition the League established in 2008 of hosting a regular-season outdoor game at the onset of the new year, with this year’s edition marking the 10-year anniversary of the first NHL Winter Classic® in Buffalo. Fans can join the conversation on social media by including the hashtag NHL #WinterClassic.
