On November 16, Colorado Avalanche unveiled their Reverse Retro jersey. This was in collaboration with Adidas and the NHL in releasing a collection of jerseys that blend the past and present designs for all 31 teams.
The Colorado Avalanche’s jersey is a throwback to 1972 when the team was previously known as the Québec Nordiques in the World Hockey Association (WHA) before joining the National Hockey League (NHL) in 1979.
Originally based in Québec City, the Nordiques were well-known for their powder blue and white uniforms. Although, from 1973-75, they adopted a dark royal blue color. The fleur-de-lis was first added to the uniforms for the 1974-75 season.
Now let’s take a look at the Avalanche’s Reverse Retro jersey!
