Nostalgia hits the ice! The Sharks' 'Heritage 2.0' alternate jersey revives 90s cool, sparking fan frenzy and honoring club legends.
The San Jose Sharks not only won the game last night against the New Jersey Devils, but they may have also won the nicest jersey's of the night.
Last night, they debuted their 'Heritage 2.0' alternate jersey, which is a throwback concept inspired by the ones they wore in 1997-98.
As soon as they took warm ups, they light up social media with just about every NHL fan, in absolute awe over them. They brought back so much nostalgia for fans that got to see their older jerseys.
The 'Heritage 2.0' alternate's will be worn a few times this season and will have a handful of Sharks alumni that will be honoured.
Last night was the first night and they honoured Jeff Friesen, Kyle McLaren, and Mark Smith.
Going forward, they will be worn on the following dates.
- Thursday, Nov. 20 vs. Los Angeles Kings – Joe Thornton Hall of Fame Celebration Game
- Wednesday, Dec. 3 vs. Washington Capitals - Patrick Marleau, Evgeni Nabokov, Mike Ricci
- Sunday, March 1 vs. Winnipeg Jets - Scott Hannan, Owen Nolan, Scott Thornton
For Sharks fans who grew up cheering for the team during that era, it'll be an awesome experience.
