    The Tampa Bay Lightning announced this morning that they will debut a new third jersey and corresponding uniform combination at home Thursday night against the Colorado Avalanche.

    They plan to wear the sweater, socks and black matte helmet a total of seven times throughout the 2023-24 regular season.

    The new third jersey combination, that was developed in partnership with Adidas, pays tribute to the legacy of the Tampa Bay Lightning. The cherished Stanley Cup Championship years are woven into the collar of the sweater.

    The new look combines a black throwback sweater featuring the current shoulder patch logo. It also highlights three victory stripes on the sleeves, paying homage to the franchise’s original jersey system in 1992, which featured the stripes under the arms. The matte black helmet is there to incorporate a modern element and today's current team.

    “Fan feedback was an essential part of the process of the creation of the jersey. We feel strongly our fans will be proud to show off the victory stripes to honor the organization’s legacy."
