The <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/category\/bruins\/\" target=\"_self\">Boston Bruins<\/a> are finally giving the people what they want. When you think of this jersey, it brings back Patrice Bergeron&#8217;s rookie vibes. After going back to the \u201cmeth bear\u201d on-the-shoulder patches last go-round, the Bruins are bringing back a classic. Bringing back the Bear head as the logo is a great move. This time around, instead of going with the golden yellow, the team will go with a white road concept. It looks exactly like the original and has the same shoulder patches, but it seems crisper with white. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Buffalo Sabres (A-)<\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ReverseRetro?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#ReverseRetro<\/a> jersey will be available November 15!<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LetsGoBuffalo?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#LetsGoBuffalo<\/a> x <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/adidashockey?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@adidashockey<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/vZFJOdfvHK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/vZFJOdfvHK<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Buffalo Sabres (@BuffaloSabres) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BuffaloSabres\/status\/1583118593855586304?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 20, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Instead of two goat head jerseys, why not have two? The team has confirmed that the goat head will be returning in the black and red colour scheme, but now the fans get one in the current colour scheme. Another white road concept, but bringing back the 2000s logo. The blue and yellow striping wrapping around the sleeves gives the jersey some character. Nothing beats the original goat head jersey, but it still is a nice jersey overall. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Detroit Red Wings (D)<\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\ud83e\udd29 <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/reverseretro?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#reverseretro<\/a>\u2070\u2070Get yours 11.15\u2070\u2070<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LGRW?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#LGRW<\/a> x <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/adidashockey?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@adidashockey<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/87kRDN3c2l\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/87kRDN3c2l<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Detroit Red Wings (@DetroitRedWings) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DetroitRedWings\/status\/1583122916421427200?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 20, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Red Wings passed the assignment this go-round, but overall still not great. Detroit has one of the most iconic jerseys in sports and is something that should never be tampered with. But in this case, they have to get creative. Detroit is throwing it back to the early days of its existence. The Detroit red is the base for the jersey, but instead of incorporating white stripes, they added black, giving it a bolder look. It isn&#8217;t the greatest, in my opinion, but it offers Detroit a different look on the ice. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Florida Panthers (B+)<\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">CAN YOU EVEN BELIEVE<\/p>\n<p>\u2600\ufe0f\ud83c\udf34\ud83c\udfd2 \u00bb <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/1scA7KeX0m\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/1scA7KeX0m<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/KH4Cdwon1m\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/KH4Cdwon1m<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Florida Panthers (@FlaPanthers) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FlaPanthers\/status\/1583127167897989121?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 20, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This is masterfully done. Taking the shoulder patch from the 2000\u2019s jersey and making it the primary logo is beautiful. The baby blue base comes from an alternate they used back in 2009. It is a bit of a reverse from the last round and incorporates the red and the navy in the stripes. A clean and crisp jersey will have the Panthers looking great on the ice. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Montreal Canadiens (A+)<\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"fr\">Procurez-vous en pr\u00e9commande le chandail <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/adidas?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@adidas<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ReverseRetro?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#ReverseRetro<\/a> 2022 d\u00e8s maintenant!<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zdEz5ta42E\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/zdEz5ta42E<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Preorder your <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/adidas?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@adidas<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/ReverseRetro?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#ReverseRetro<\/a> 2022 jersey now!<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/LvzrzC3Hdq\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/LvzrzC3Hdq<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sxk0dPTSsZ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/sxk0dPTSsZ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Tricolore Sports (@TricoloreSports) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TricoloreSports\/status\/1583126118869000192?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 20, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This may be my favourite of the bunch. With years of retro uniforms, the Montreal Canadiens are paying tribute to another Montreal team. The Montreal Expos baseball team rocked these same colours and was iconic in the baseball world. The baby blue base comes from the same colour the Expos used. There is still more blue and white in the stripes in the centre of the jersey, like they&#8217;ve used in the past. All around, this is a great jersey and screams Montreal in all aspects. They are seeing Cole Caufield celly in these beauties will be fun. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Ottawa Senators (A-)<\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"fr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/reverseretro?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#reverseretro<\/a><br \/>\nCommande le tien 11.15<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/GoSensGo?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#GoSensGo<\/a> x <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/adidashockey?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@adidashockey<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/LTHUJtmCDk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/LTHUJtmCDk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ottawa Senators (@Senators) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Senators\/status\/1583118593692237824?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 20, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Another black jersey for the Ottawa Senators. Keeping their current logo which they fully rebranded to, they incorporated their old black alternate jersey in some capacity. The team added red sleeves to give it more pop and character. A red stripe at the bottom gives it a bit more flare to it as well. The only thing missing is gold, but overall a good concept but similar to their current home jerseys. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Tampa Bay Lightning (C+)<\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">It\u2019s allllllll in the details. \u26c8 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6Ds9ZShR8X\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/6Ds9ZShR8X<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Tampa Bay Sports (@ShopTBSports) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ShopTBSports\/status\/1583165716269830146?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 20, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The storm jersey is returning to the ice.

The sleeves remain the same, bringing back the iconic lightning bolts. Ocean water at the bottom remains and wraps around the jersey. Tampa bay swapped the colours as the original had a black base with grey on the sides and sleeves. Gray is now the base, and the sleeves are black. It screams everything in the team name looking like a storm. Should be interesting to see how they look on the ice. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Toronto Maple Leafs (A)<\/span><\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">2022 \u23ea 1962<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/reverseretro?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#reverseretro<\/a> Get yours 11.15<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LeafsForever?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#LeafsForever<\/a> x <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/adidashockey?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@adidashockey<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sxoQZx5ObI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/sxoQZx5ObI<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Toronto Maple Leafs (@MapleLeafs) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MapleLeafs\/status\/1583118904968167424?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 20, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This jersey is beautiful. Blue and white through and through. A solid blue base with a white shoulder gives it a lot more pop than their current home jersey. A reverse concept of their white jersey alternate in 2003-04. We&#8217;re talking about Alexander Mogilny&#8217;s days when that beautiful thing was worn. The stripes are white on the sleeves and in the base. Even the maple leaf&#8217;s crest is a throwback to the 2003-04 white alternate jersey. Just a beautiful jersey and gives the leafs a nice bold look on the ice.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>As the Atlantic Division Reverse Retro review comes to an end, we get one conclusion. Overall this division had plenty of standout jerseys and nailed the concept. Some classics are coming back, while the original six teams are going back to an older time period. It&#8217;s just a great set of jerseys that will look great on the ice when worn.<\/p>\n<p>Main photo:<br \/>\n<a id=\"18jiREn4R09Wmr3aa92kQw\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/496494\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'18jiREn4R09Wmr3aa92kQw',sig:'Fa_r3j0JCQqScCyZ9hOFJUIg2wDqzyH6flBVZ7RHt8g=',w:'594px',h:'399px',items:'496494',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Next up on the Last Word on Hockey Adidas reverse retro jersey rankings is the Atlantic division.
