Flyers to Reveal Classic Sweater

The Philadelphia Flyers will unveil their 2010 Winter Classic jersey this Friday at 2 PM in a rather unusual way. Three players will shoot pucks at a block of ice concealing the new sweater. I'm looking forward to seeing that.

The information comes from this article on Philly.com. The Flyers are also confirming the unveiling date and time via their official web site. As always, count on Icethetics for pictures as soon as I can get them posted. (I'm starting a new job on Thursday so it may be a little tricky getting this stuff posted immediately on Friday.)

Thanks to Andrew for the tip. No word yet on when to expect an unveiling in Boston.
