Unique Utica

One of the complaints that came with the introduction of the AHL's Utica Comets was its reliance on the look of its parent club. The Comets wear Canucks jerseys with a different logo on the front. Last week, a couple of people asked to see a concept and a couple of artists obliged.

Matt McElroy submitted the design above, writing: "Here's my take on a Comets "clash" style jersey. I've gotten sort of tired of the traditional home and away set up so this jersey is design to just be a "clash" to what the other team wears. Home or road; doesn't matter."

Justin Wiltron went in a slightly different direction, changing the team's primary color to green. Or perhaps this would work as a nice third jersey.

Sweeping Stripes in South Florida

Torin Kowalenko tackles all new uniform designs for the Florida Panthers today with this set. I was taken by the unique sweeping stripe patterns — but I do miss the sunny shoulder patches.

Be Green or Be Pinched

Every year a handful of teams wear green warm-up jerseys on St. Patrick's Day, but what if the Bruins went with it as a full time third jersey? Pretty crazy, right? With this concept IceHL GM Ryan Laden makes his Concepts page debut. He manages the St. Louis Archers fantasy team.

California's Stadium Game Revisited

Avi Stein had a bit of a rethink on the jerseys worn for the Los Angeles Stadium Series game earlier this year. The league said Stadium Series jersey designs were about looking toward the future while the Winter and Heritage Classics were meant for looking back.

It seems to me Avi wanted to mix the two with this set. His jersey designs feel a bit more modern with obvious nods to history. What do you think?
