New Lightning third jerseys leaked?
Posted Oct 9, 2008 by Erik Erlendsson
Updated Oct 9, 2008 at 02:09 PM
For the second time in Lightning franchise history, the team will incorporate a third jersey into the fold starting this season. While the logo, which incorporates the team’s nickname “Bolts’’ across the chest, had been leaked on the Internet earlier this summer along with the deep blue colored jersey.
But the pictures below appear to be the mock-up version of the new jersey from Reebok, the league’s official jersey supplier, even though “Lecavalier’’ is misspelled. While a team official confirmed that a third jersey is expected to be unveiled at some point this season, the Lightning would neither confirm nor deny that the blue jersey with ‘‘Bolts” across the chest are the new alternate uniforms.

I like the 3rd jersey even though I have an original 3rd and still wear it everytime I make the trip to a game. Personally I agree on 1 thing.. I would have had it rather say Tampa Bay and not Bolts.
I will buy 1 of these though most likely. I do like it.
Go BOLTS

Has anyone looked at the fact that we now have a Junior Hockey team that is called the Tampa Bay Bolts? The Bolts team plays at the Ellenton Ice Rink. Their sweaters already look very similar to the Lightning sweaters. It is hard to believe the big boys would want to wear sweaters that resemble those worn by a Juniors team. Maybe the new people in charge are not clued in to the local stuff.

I would rather it said ‘Nuts’ vs. ‘Bolts’. Like the blue, but the name “bolts” is tihs.

actually the jerseys worn buy the TECO Energy “bolt brigade” from 2002-7 (they changed it last season) would have made an excellent 3rd jersey if you take the corporate stuff off. it was black with what looked to be a thunderstorm occurring over downtown. the lightning strikes looked authentic (i.e. thin) not cartoonnish as they always have on the normal jerseys.

Love the colors.

Not sold on the Bolts. I agree it should say Tampa Bay (arched) across the chest
