0292: Grizzly Gold

Ever since their Winter Classic appearance, I've always wanted to see the Boston Bruins bring back a gold third jersey. Here's a neat option from Justin Wiltron, which borrows the bear from the team's secondary logo.

0291: Canucks Re-Bourne

Today we have the next installment in Andrew Bourne's NHL makeover series. Here he tackles the Vancouver Canucks but he's done my least favorite thing — he dropped the green.

This was hard because I really love the jersey set and color scheme put in place by the current owners but also really love the old V uniforms that Vancouver used in 80's. So, instead of just mailing it in, I pushed myself to push The Canucks design to the edge of Seizure-Town.

Right away, I condensed the color scheme to two colors. A lot of V's and a lot of colors with make you want to puke. The large striping appears to be cut or broken up to really show that V in the body of the uniform. With that break, you can really see the V and the C work together. The alternate jersey already has a V on the chest so, I made some angled striping along the sleeves and body of the jersey. Why 3 stripes, you ask? Three trips to the Stanley Cup Finals. Would the stripes actually look good on the ice? I'm not sure, but it looks interesting enough on paper - er... computer screen.

0290: An Avalanche of Blue

Ryan Haslett has a pretty unique look for the Colorado Avalanche. The numbers are especially cool.

0289: Stars Within Stars

It looks like we're going to have Dallas Stars concepts here at least once a week. With the team actively looking to rebrand, it makes sense that a lot of what's coming my way revolves around the Stars. Kris Lutes offers up this throwback to the pre-Reebok Edge era and uses the team's AHL affiliate, the Texas Stars for inspiration.

0288: Toronto Varsity Blues

It's Sunday so that means we get another college hockey concept. This one for the University of Toronto comes from Justin Nahhas. It's a pretty sharp look. The Varsity Blues' actual uniforms look a lot more like the Toronto Maple Leafs' by the way.
