NEW YORK – The National Hockey League (NHL) and Fanatics, the League’s authentic on-ice outfitter, today unveiled the uniforms to be worn in the 2026 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic between the Winnipeg Jets and Montreal Canadiens at Winnipeg’s Princess Auto Stadium on Sunday, October 25 (7 p.m. ET, SN, TVAS, TNT, truTV, HBO MAX). After three-seasons away, this marquee event makes its highly anticipated return, carrying on its tradition of honoring Canada’s deep-rooted connection to outdoor hockey.
The uniforms were designed by Fanatics with collaboration from both teams and the NHL.
The Jets’ NHL Heritage Classic uniform pays homage to the franchise’s classic look of the 1980s and 1990s presented in white to complement the team’s current navy alternate jersey. The crest is rendered in felt with chain-stitched detailing, and the back numbers carry the same two-layer felt treatment. An all-new streaking jet graphic frames the event name on the hem while the loop label replicates the jet-in-a-circle design from the team’s pants.
The Canadiens’ NHL Heritage Classic uniform draws on multiple design details from throughout the team’s storied jersey history, with the classic red and blue team colors alongside a vintage off-white. For the first time ever, “Les Habitants” appears in the back collar, a nod to the franchise’s iconic nickname, while the loop label features a fleur-de-lis for the province of Québec. The classic CH crest has been redrawn to echo styles of the past and rendered in felt with running-stitch detailing.
