The Boston Bruins have signed several key players this offseason, including Elias Lindholm and Nikita Zadorov.

What do they look like in black and gold?

We now have a better picture than ever before as the B’s have officially announced the jersey numbers of Lindholm, Zadorov, Mark Kastelic, Max Jones, Joonas Korpisalo and Riley Tufte.

Zadorov becomes only the second player in franchise history to wear number 91, joining Marc Savard (2007-2011). Korpisalo becomes the third goaltender in Bruins history to wear number 70, joining Tim Thomas (2003) and Malcolm Subban (2015-2017).

Jones (No. 49), Kastelic (No. 47) and Tufte (No. 10) chose some fairly popular numbers, but they don’t come close to the popularity of Lindholm’s (No. 28) – which has been worn by 11 players since 2000.

Bruins first-round pick Dean Letourneau wore No. 97 during development camp in June.

Boston likely won’t wait long to throw the big boys’ uniforms in the pro shop, especially since Lindholm and Zadorov are being counted on to get the B’s over the line and back in the race.
