The Bruins are leaning into a new look this season, and it comes with a collegiate twist.
Boston, along with the NHL’s other 31 teams and Fanatics, officially unveiled its Hometown Remix jersey for the 2026-27 season. The sweater is brown with a gold “Bruins” word mark stretched across the chest, a clean throwback-style design that the team has framed as “The Varsity Sweater.”
The uniform also breaks new ground for the franchise with a yellow/gold helmet. According to the release, it’s the first time in Bruins history the team will wear a helmet other than black, white, or brown.
The Bruins will wear the jersey 12 times this season, starting Thursday, Nov. 12 against the Montreal Canadiens at 7:00 p.m. ET on NESN. The full slate includes home dates with the Minnesota Wild, Toronto Maple Leafs, Detroit Red Wings, New Jersey Devils, Carolina Hurricanes, Anaheim Ducks and Pittsburgh Penguins, plus road games at the New York Islanders, Canadiens and Red Wings.

Bruins Suddenly Look Like A Real Threat In The Kucherov Race
If Nikita Kucherov ever reaches free agency, the Bruins would have to be taken seriously as a destination. The appeal is obvious: Boston can sell a chance to win right away, and the fit on paper is just as intriguing. Insiders have already pointed to how his game could slot into the lineup and give the power play another layer of danger, which is exactly the kind of pitch a contender would want ready if the market opens up.
What makes the conversation even more interesting is the way Kucherovs next move is being framed around more than money or geography. He is said to want a situation with a real Cup path and the chance to skate with another elite player, which narrows the field and raises the stakes for teams like Boston. If the Bruins can keep themselves in that tier, they suddenly become more than a speculative name in the mix. [Read more 🡒]
Bruins New Alternate Sweater Brings Boston Pride And A Fan Debate
The Bruins have added a new look to their wardrobe, unveiling an alternate jersey called the Varsity Sweater as part of the NHL and Fanatics Hometown Remix series. The brown design leans into Bostons deep college hockey roots, with historical touches that make it feel tied to the city rather than just to the team, including a front number and the red-brick Freedom Trail worked into the hemline.
Boston will wear the sweater 12 times this season, giving fans plenty of chances to weigh in on a jersey that is already likely to spark debate. The first appearance comes Nov. 12 against the Canadiens, when the Bruins will also stage a Homecoming event, adding another layer of local flavor to a night that should feel as much about Boston identity as it does about the game itself.

Bruins Head Into A Key Test With Zadorov Drama Still Lingering
The Bruins are closing out a two-game homestand with a stiff test against Vegas, and the backdrop is still shaped by the leagues latest discipline on Nikita Zadorov. Bostons blue line has been under the microscope all week, and the timing is not ideal with a contender coming into TD Garden to finish off the set.
Zadorovs fine for roughing has added another layer of attention to a team that is trying to keep its focus on the ice rather than the noise around it. Around the league, there was also movement elsewhere with Shane Wright heading to Nashville in a one-for-one deal for Matthew Wood, while New Jersey sent goaltender Remi Poirier to Washington, but for the Bruins the immediate concern is whether the lingering Zadorov situation stays in the background long enough for the hockey to take center stage.
