What Tampa Bay Should Have Done

It's a shame Dylan Nowak doesn't work for the Tampa Bay Lightning. They really could've used his advice when coming up with their new third jersey — which debuts tonight, by the way. It'll be black and boring. But it could've been black and amazing. Well done, Dylan.

By the way, today marks the 999th consecutive day of new concept art on Icethetics. Tomorrow brings the 1,000th post!

Arizona Overhaul

What do you say we give the Arizona Coyotes a new set of uniforms that better fit their logo and history? Thierry Dick has just the thing.

Black Could Work Again in Philly

If the Philadelphia Flyers ever decide to try a third jersey that isn't the same color as the primary jersey — black could work. It has before. In fact, this concept by Alex Valvo is one of the better executions I've seen. What about you?

Boston's Own

As the Pittsburgh Penguins return to a classic gold with their new third jersey, it brings up an old fight. Which NHL team should own black and gold? For the Boston Bruins, it goes back to the 1930s. But for the Pens, it's part of their city's tradition.

But a simple solution, like this one from Matt McElroy, could give the Bruins a one of a kind look that no other team could possibly duplicate. I say bring on the gold and brown!

Fishing for a Resurrection

I'm telling you, the New York Islanders need to bring back the fisherman. We'll see it in real life on a warm-up jersey later this season. But I'm saying it could work on an orange third jersey like this one from Scott Markiewicz. Why not?
