On the heels of yesterday's Team USA concepts comes this rather patriotic Washington Capitals design by Dylan Alexander. All of these are really cool options but none beat the Captain America-inspired alternate sweater. Count me as a fan!
We get a double dose of national team concepts today — both for Team USA. Justin Cox incorporates some subtle gold into his design. A subtle hint to the wearer, perhaps?
Bryan Dyck's work may lack the polish of other designs we've seen, but there's no mistaking this set is all American.
Andrew Bourne's NHL makeover series continues today with the Boston Bruins. His comments about this design can be found below.
The current color scheme for the Bruins is black, gold and white. It is cool because you can say that you are rooting for the black and gold (which sounds way better than rooting for the brown and gold), but I believe that the Bruins should embrace their past and have one of the more unique color palettes in the NHL. Who else could pull off a brown jersey? No one, that's who.
I actually didn't change too much on these jerseys because I believe that the Bruins organization has gotten it right (as far as overall jersey layout is concerned). The small difference from the NHL layout to the 305cHL layout shows up in the striping and in the shoulder area. As far as the alternate jersey goes, The Bruins need a gold jersey that works. Gold is a rare color in the NHL (at least it was) and they need to embrace their uniqueness.
What? This is a Freak Out Friday, right? Yeah, I don't really have any more to say about it.
Just over a month ago, I posted a concept Colin May created for the Columbus Blue Jackets. A few readers thought the idea might make for some nice All-Star jerseys. So Colin took a stab at that and this is what he came up with.
