0607: Black Bolts

This is proof the Tampa Bay Lightning need to put a black jersey back into the mix. Todd Varga has put together what could be a great alternate.

0606: The Sabres by Hand

Morgo Uxbridge is back with another hand-drawn concept, this time for the Buffalo Sabres. Could there be any design more appropriate for this team?

0605: Desert Do Over

The Phoenix Coyotes become the Arizona Coyotes next year and with that brings an opportunity for an identity refresh. At the very least they could adopt a new third jersey. This one from Ryan Haslett borrows an unused logo from the club's 2008 third jersey prototype process.

0604: Brooklyn Black and White

As promised, Islanders Sunday starts this week. After two months of Seattle concepts, I wanted a place to showcase some of the intriguing Isles concepts that have been showing up in my inbox since the Brooklyn move was announced.

Justin Wiltron is first up. Naturally, we had to start with a black and white one, but don't worry, this new theme won't just be a repository for monochromatic musings. We'll get plenty of blue and orange in here as well. There's some really neat ideas in store.

0603: Caps and Whalers

After we learned the Capitals will host the 2015 NHL Winter Classic, Bryan Dyck started thinking about who their opponent should be. How about the Carolina Hurricanes... as the Hartford Whalers? But as much as I loved Washington's Blue and Bronze Age, I'm not sure I can see them in anything other than the classic red throwback. Plus, it would make sense up against Whaler green. What's your take on this Winter Classic proposal?
