The Colorado Avalanche on Thursday unveiled on Twitter the jerseys the team will wear for its NHL Stadium Series game on Feb. 15 at the Air Force Academy.
The team released a video of Gabe Landeskog, Mikko Rantanen and Cale Makar at the jerseys at Family Sports Center in Centennial.
The tri-colored uniform, a special-edition ADIZERO jersey designed by Adidas, features burgundy across the bottom half, blue across the shoulders and white in the middle. The white space is a triangle representing Colorado’s snow-capped mountains and also serves as the “A” for Avalanche. Four burgundy triangles represent the state’s red rocks and also serves as the negative space for the “A.” An NHL Stadium Series patch sits on the right shoulder. The blue represents the state’s sky. On the inside behind the neck is the Colorado flag. The angular design is inspired by the Cadet Chapel at the Air Force Academy.
