The NHL revealed all the Reverse Retro jerseys on Thursday and the New York Rangers will once again go with the Liberty logo.

In the last rendition of the jersey, they went with a navy blue and a single red and grey stripe on the sleeves. This time around, the Liberty logo will be emblazoned on Rangers blue with red at the bottom of the sleeve.

Lady Liberty was finally brought back for the Reverse Retros in 2020 after last wearing it in 2007.

The first time the Rangers ever wore Lady Liberty was on 1/13/97 against the NY Islanders. Unfortunately it was a 4-2 loss.

The first time they wore the white Lady Liberty jersey was on 10/16/98 versus the NJ Devils. Sadly, another loss – this time 2-1.

Of course, there’s plenty of good stuff that happened with Lady Liberty on proud display. How about Wayne Gretzky’s final hat-trick of his career in the playoffs against the the Flyers on 5/18/97.

On 10/15/05, Henrik Lundqvist played his second NHL game as the Rangers defeated the Atlanta Thrashers 5-1 and the “HEN-RIK” chant was born. Or what about the greatest shootout in history where Marek Malik scored a between the legs beauty in the 15th round against Capitals on 11/26/05.
