It’s often been said there are two events you never want to show up to while wearing white. Weddings and a November game against the Vancouver Canucks.
The Bruins were forced to make a quick wardrobe change prior to puck drop against the Canucks after both teams took the ice for pregame warmups wearing white uniforms.
The Bruins initially took the ice wearing their Reverse Retro “Pooh Bear jerseys”.

However, the game was not listed as one of the Bruins’ scheduled Reverse Retro games. It is unlikely the garb was intended to be worn just for warmups. Although wearing special pre-game-only jerseys is not uncommon throughout the NHL, typically the jersey is worn with the rest of the game-ready pants, socks, and gear. The Bruins players and staff initially took the ice decked head-to-toe in their usual Reverse Retro accessories.
Correction: This was not one of original RR games on initial list released. Someone messed up, because team and staff went head-to-toe in Pooh Bear before even taking ice.
