Last week, we heard from Stars owner Tom Gagliardi who is definitely ready for a new look in Dallas. Thank goodness! We're all right there with him. So count on seeing a lot more Stars concepts in the near future, such as this great one from Joseph Loretz. It's a unique mix of retro and modern elements. The logo could use a little bit of polish but I think the jersey itself is there!
Alex Valvo treats us to a new look for Canisius College on this University Sunday. By the way, if you have a college concept to submit, don't delay! I'm starting to run low and just when this feature is getting popular.
I've got a great new series to debut today. It takes Winter Classic Weekends to their next logical step. The Brothers Waddell — Chance and Jake — have designed Winter Classic/retro-style uniforms for all 30 NHL franchises... whether they have the history to support it or not. Some are seriously good, some are just fun.
Now rather than doing one big dump of 30 jerseys (where many would simply get overlooked), I'd like to roll them out over the coming winter two at a time. Today we start with the Penguins and Kings. Again, retro style jerseys with no specific ties to the team's past. Just something unique and interesting.
Remember, Chance and Jake have designs for all 30 teams so we have 28 to go. How will I decide which two to post next? I won't. You will. The first two were picked at random. The next two will be picked by the first commenters on this post. Comment with the two teams you'd like to see next. First come, first served. Check back next Saturday morning to see them!
Brian was first, so Rangers and Islanders are what we'll get next Saturday. And just like this week, first to comment gets to choose the next two teams.
Here's a Freak Out Friday for you as we wrap up our week of non-hockey hockey jerseys. Who wouldn't want to wear this one by Justin Cox?
Last time I did this No Hockey Week, the Freak Out Friday post featured Super Mario of video game fame. He's back this time a day early as designer Brian Brideau had a couple more ideas worth sharing. Definitely a creative mind at work here.
