The KHL certainly knows how to keep the fans entertained throughout All-Star Week. Last year they added a lot of new features to the event, and they were all an absolute hit. The new additions included junior players competing in the MHL Challenge Cup, the first-ever Women’s Hockey League All-Star Game and the Master Show Super Skills.
This year, the KHL will do things just about the exact same way, only this year the four best-performing youngsters in the MHL Challenge Cup will earn a spot in the KHL All-Star. On Tuesday, the league officially released the jerseys for this year’s KHL All-Star Game and they’re pretty awesome.
The jerseys and all the equipment that the players will rock were created by BAUER. They’ve decided to abandon the traditional dark colours for the uniforms and went with colours such as juicy green, pure blue and gold instead.
They seemed to have taken a page out of the NFL’s book for these jerseys, as fans will probably have a tough time telling the Division Kharlamov apart from the Chernyshev Division.
The uniforms for the Bobrov Division and Division Tarasova will be a lot easier to tell apart when they're beside each other on the ice.
Fans will also be able to bid on the equipment after it is used in the KHL All-Star Game, with all the proceeds going towards the Children’s sledge hockey league in Russia.
