Hiding in Plain Sight

I recently wrote up a blog on hidden images in NHL logos. Simon Pure has taken the notion a step further by hiding images in existing logos. Check out what he's done for a couple of Original Six teams in the Maple Leafs and Rangers.

Arizona Throwback

The Arizona Coyotes will where throwback jerseys from 1996 this season. But what if that era was mixed with the current uniforms? They might look something like this set from Scott Markiewicz — which I think is fantastic.

Montreal Jedi

I've been spending the last few weekends revisiting past Sunday series. Anyone remember Beer League Sundays? That was interesting. Today we have one from Sylvain Rogé and his Montreal Jedi club.

We learned this week the San Jose Sharks will participate in their first outdoor game next season as they host the Kings at Levi's Stadium. I've already received a couple of concepts regarding what they might wear.

Justin Wiltron has gone the traditional route. He's got Blackhawks-style striping and the classy white cuffs and shoulder yoke. But I think we all know it's not going that way. The NHL proved last year the Stadium Series is meant for modern jersey designs.

To that end, we have this one from Kyle Rubin. It's a rehash of this year's template in Sharks colors — but where's the chrome crest? Hopefully those were a mistake well-learned from.

RT This Jersey

Instead of names on the back of jerseys, what if they were Twitter handles?

Those ominous words from Mike Monti sent shivers down my spine. What if, indeed. Anybody else freaked out?
