0493: Return of the Whalers
/
Can't do a week of past NHL team concepts without including the Whalers. The ever-prolific Bastian Schmülling put together this green uniform set.

Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final picks up tonight in Boston, so I got to thinking about how the Bruins could really use a new third jersey. A gold one. And I wasn't alone. Bastian Schmülling had a similar idea and came up with this gold and brown number. What are we waiting for? Let's get this on the ice already!
Failing that, Chance Waddell has this simpler idea that invites more gold and less of anything else. Face it, a gold jersey is in Boston's future. Just make it happen.
Here's one we haven't done before. Our International Sundays bring us this week to Italia. Bastian Schmülling continues to offer sharp and unique national team sweaters with this one. Wonder what country we'll get next Sunday.
Back to our International Sundays this week with Bastian Schmülling's take on the Finnish national team's uniforms. As usual with Mr. Schmülling, they're pretty sharp. And he's got another good one coming next Sunday!
I like to celebrate my birthdays with Tampa Bay Lightning concepts. This year, I think Bastian Schmülling has hit the jackpot. If you're not a fan of those monochromatic Bolts sweaters, this is how you fix them. I love the inclusion of silver and the victory stripes under the arms. The one change I might suggest is contrasting shoulder yokes as a nod to the original uniforms.
