The Chicago Blackhawks haven’t had an alternate jersey since 2011, and that reportedly won’t change next season. The team will be sticking to only home and road jerseys — like the other 29 NHL teams as part of the start of a new uniform contract with adidas, according to Michael Russo of the Star Tribune.
Russo reports that all 30 NHL teams will only wear two sweaters, with no alternates, next season when adidas replaces Reebok as the league’s official uniform maker. Moving to only two uniforms per team will make it easier for adidas to implement the league-wide changes without having alternates further complicate things.
