0652: Heritage Reimagined

We now know what the Canucks and Senators will wear when the hit the ice at B.C. Place in March, but how about a "what if?" Bastian Schmülling imagines the game looking something like this. Hard to say which I like better. This or reality? What's your take?

0633: No Orange in San Jose

So you say you don't care much for the burnt orange found on the San Jose Sharks' logos and uniforms? How about a return to a classic color scheme? Bastian Schmülling continues to impress with his sharp designs.

0622: Halloween in South Florida

Happy Halloween from south Florida! Bastian Schmülling presents this yellow number for the Panthers today. It's a little bright for me. What do you think? A great third jersey in the making here? Or something to hide away?

0583: By Bastian Schmülling

I'm launching a brand new theme week today! We have so many artists who are so prolific that I thought they deserved their own week right before hockey season starts. So each day we'll feature a trio of concepts from a specific designer, starting here with Bastian Schmülling. His Wild jerseys may look a little dingy, but they also look like instant classics.

The Flames could use a uniform simplification and Bastian has the perfect answer and the best use of black I've ever seen on a Flames concept.

Finally, the Ducks need a way to distinguish their palette from the Flyers and that gold just isn't cutting it. So how about green? Not the first time we've seen green and orange combined in an Anaheim concept, but certainly among the better examples.

Bastian still has a ton of work that's gone unpublished to date, but I'm working to rectify that. He's got a great eye for uniform design and I, for one, am always excited to see what new ideas he's come up with.

0570: Fixing the Hurricanes

Few were impressed by the Carolina Hurricanes' new uniforms this summer. So a couple of our regular contributors to the Concepts page sent in what they thought would be great improvements. Brian Brideau rounds off the shoulder yoke of the white jersey and adds the storm flags back to both.

Meanwhile, Bastian Schmülling has a different solution. If the Canes just wanted more classic striping, why not make the storm flags a little more subtle? I'd say that would've been better than removing them entirely. Which of the two designs do you prefer?
