Boston Gold

I've long thought the Bruins could use a gold third jersey — not unlike their Winter Classic sweater from 2010. Jack Gambro seems to have had the same idea. I like almost everything about it. Only the crest feels out of place to me — being mostly gold itself.

Modern Retro Inspired in Calgary

The Calgary Flames' new third jersey has inspired a lot of concept artists to rethink the team's look. A lot them. Expect to see a lot more in the coming weeks. For now, Dylan Wonka has given the new sweater a retro feel by removing the black and replacing the crest.

The Grey Kings

Bastian Schmülling never ceases to impress me with always eye-pleasing concepts. This one for the Kings is no exception. Grey doesn't stand out as a particularly good jersey color. But as we saw in the Stadium Series, it could make for a very nice alternate jersey if you do it right. In this case, I think it's definitely been done right.


Update

With his revised design, Bastian writes: "Inspired by Kris' comment about my silver Kings-jersey, I've created a matching black version. While he suggested use silver yokes/stripes and white accents, I prefer white as the secondary-color."

Imaginary Throwback

Colin May has been working on a series of alternate jerseys for NHL teams. Today he attempts one for the Toronto Maple Leafs. It's more of a fauxback than anything from the team's own history. But it's a cool look and definitely something I could imagine coming from the turn of the last century.

Even More Olympic Dreams

As the Olympics end, so ends our week of concepts centered around countries that didn't send hockey teams to Sochi. It's inspired a lot of people to submit artwork! Today we start with Brendan Klein who envisions this look for the smallest independent nation, Vatican City.

David Parkinson gives us our first South American team of the week with his take on hockey uniforms for Argentina. They're pretty sharp, actually!

Finally, Hunter Nordhauser takes us all the way to the frozen shores of Greenland.

If you submitted a concept that didn't get posted this week, don't fret. The International Sunday series will continue on so I can show off more of the great work everyone has sent in.
