San Jose Sharks unveil Heritage 2.0 jerseys for limited 2025-26 NHL games

The San Jose Sharks have unveiled a new "Heritage 2.0" alternate jersey to celebrate their 35th NHL season, inspired by their second-generation jerseys worn from 1998 to 2007. These jerseys will be worn during four special alumni games throughout the 2025-26 season, featuring appearances by former Sharks stars such as Jeff Friesen, Kyle McLaren, Mark Smith, Joe Thornton, Patrick Marleau, Evgeni Nabokov, Mike Ricci, Scott Hannan, Owen Nolan, and Scott Thornton. The jersey design includes original lettering, numbering, and side striping with a modern twist, connecting past and present fans. The team will also host theme nights honoring these alumni and significant milestones, including Joe Thornton's Hockey Hall of Fame induction. Jerseys will be available for purchase at the SAP Center and online, with select fans receiving VIP experiences during the preseason game against the Vegas Golden Knights. The Sharks aim to celebrate their rich history while engaging new fans with their young core and community efforts, making the Heritage 2.0 jersey a symbol of the franchise's enduring legacy on and off the ice.
