Meet the Tampa Bay Lightning’s new third jersey.
After months (years?) of speculation, the Bolts finally released a new third jersey today. Gone are the dark blue uniforms. Not gone is the word “BOLTS.” I know that some people around here desperately wanted that word to disappear. I've never minded it, and I do think the black looks sharp.
The black uniforms are a throwback to the team’s original colors and colors through the years. For those of you who are either new to Bolts Nation or don’t remember, there was a time in Lightning-land when black was the primary color of all things Bolts. Maybe this third jersey brings back some memories for all of you.
As per the team, you'll be able to see these new jerseys in action on the following dates:
November 13, 2014 vs. San Jose Sharks
November 15, 2014 vs. New York Islanders
November 22, 2014 vs. Minnesota Wild
