The WHA Collection

Dallas Kirkpatrick has something special for us today. He writes:

I've been working on a project for a while now, recreating WHA jerseys. I decided to create 14 sets in total. My idea is that this might be what the jerseys looked like if the league were rebooted today — and I've purposely left out Quebec, Hartford, Edmonton, and Winnipeg as I've already done multiple concepts for these teams

I used all original logos (or variations thereof), and have stayed pretty close to the original color schemes in most cases. While I want to be creative, I wanted them all to be believable and based on something from the past.  A few of these designs have bold or outlandish design traits that probably wouldn't be used in real life, but hey, it's the WHA.

Following yesterday's announcement that next season's NHL Heritage Classic will feature a pair of WHA jerseys, I thought this All-Star set from Bastian Schmülling might be appropriate today.

Today wraps up Colin Magee's three-week series on the WHA. What if it were revived today? What would the teams and their jerseys look like?

Which of Colin's 15 designs has been your favorite?

Colin Magee picks up his three-week series today as he wonders what five more teams would look like if the WHA came back today. He's got a great touch.

Colin Magee kicks off a three-week Sunday series taking a look at what the teams of the WHA might look like if they were resurrected today. They're positively gorgeous.
