PHOTO: Canadiens, Bruins going way back for Winter Classic jersey logos
The Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens are going old school for the 2016 Winter Classic.
The Bruins are set to host a press conference Wednesday in regards to the Jan. 1 game against the rival Canadiens at Gillette Stadium, and a photo of the logos the teams are likely to use appears to have leaked.
A close look reveals the Bruins are going to don the bear logo featured on their inaugural jerseys from the 1924-25 NHL season.

The Bruins sported a logo reminiscent of a look from the 1940s in their previous Winter Classic appearance at Fenway Park in 2010.
Here's a closer view of all the 2016 logos:

The Canadiens logo is also from the 1920s, giving the upcoming event a truly classic feel - aesthetically at least.
