The St. Louis Blues are putting another spin on their inaugural uniform for the 2022 NHL Winter Classic.
The new vintage white version marks the second time the Blues have updated their original dark blue uniforms. The first was for the 2017 NHL Winter Classic where they wore the lighter vintage blue variation that is now their third jersey. A contrast yoke featuring a stripe is true to the inaugural look and has been used on jerseys throughout team history. And the vintage Blue Note on the front of the jersey in made of felt with chainstitch embellishments to invoke a classic feel. The jerseys were revealed at Busch Stadium before the St. Louis Cardinals game against the Cincinnati Reds. Forward Brayden Schenn threw out the first pitch and was one of several Blues to attend the game.
The jersey will be available for purchase at 9 a.m. on Sept. 11 at 9 a.m. on NHLShop.com and the team's website and store locations. The 2022 Winter Classic is scheduled for Jan. 1 at Target Field in Minneapolis. Last week, the Wild revealed their uniforms , a homage to the history of the State of Hockey and the Twin Cities, at the Minnesota State Fair.
