🖤🔥 THE JERSEY THAT JOINS THE DARK SIDE

The Rock Lobsters will be taking the ice in one of the most menacing, mesmerizing jerseys in the galaxy. Specially designed for Star Wars Night, these limited edition uniforms are packed with iconic elements that even Lord Vader himself would approve:

  • Galactic Empire emblems on both shoulders

  • Transport schematics of Star Wars ships across the body

  • A bold black, red, and white color scheme

  • Red lightsaber stripes on the wrists

  • A powerful Darth Vader front graphic just beneath the Rock Lobsters logo

  • Vader’s legendary quote “You Don’t Know The Power Of The Dark Side” printed above the nameplate

  • An intimidating back graphic featuring Darth Vader and his loyal troops

Only 24 replica jerseys will be available in honor of our 2024 Inaugural Season, so grab yours before they disappear faster than the Millennium Falcon in hyperspace. Replicas will be available at the Rock Shop outside of Gate One and on the concourse during the game.

Want the real deal? Stick around after the final horn for our postgame jersey auction, where you can bid for the game-worn Star Wars jerseys straight from the players’ backs.
