While I try in vain to find time to update other parts of Icethetics, I'm thrilled to tell you that the KractIce project continues to move forward! Head on over there and learn about how your T-shirt designs could win you up to $150 in IceJerseys.com gift certifcates and other prizes.

Just throw up some concepts, back to the roots of this site. That would be nice.
Anyone else just really happy that the post with the preds and bruins video is off the front page?
That thing slowed the loading down like you wouldn't believe.
You need a space in KractIce. As it is, I read it like the word 'practice'. The capital I doesn't help - if anything it just looks like a lower case L.
I figured I'd try to display your art Connor---hopefully this works, otherwise it looks like a double post!

This.
I miss the "roots" of the site so much. I find myself reading the archives daily, because things were great then.
Yeah maybe I'll send in a concept to help Chris return to his roots. Though if you ask me, he is cheating on us and secretly running another blog. Probably one about Lederhosen.
How About Some Concepts |:(
I agree. I miss the concepts and the tournaments. I'm completely uninterested in IceHL and the other stuff. I love the news on jerseys though.
Site sucks worse than the Leafs
What happened with updating the site every day twice a day? I am disappointed.
concepts please
Last update on twitter 4 days ago, I wonder if Chris is ok...
However, with Chris out of commision, I have news about the PANTHERS THIRD JERSEY
"The Panthers will debut a new third jersey design Nov. 23 in a home game against the Pittsburgh Penguins."

tsn.ca for a current 'Best mask in the NHL' pole
This once great site is dead. :(
soso, to make an ignorant and disrespectful remark like that against Chris, is beyond idiotic. The longtime Icethetics readers (unlike you) have experienced a long break by Chris before, so we'll do the same again. He devotes a lot of time into this site, despite the fact he has to WORK in the real world.
I would like to see the return to Icethetics "roots" as well though, but the IceHL can stay.
Thanks for the update Ian.
So many knives out for poor Chris! He'll be back...he loves jerseys and logos as much as we do. I have suggested on one occasion he have others pinch-hit for him (I even offered to help with posts), but its his baby and I respect that.
Plus we are spoiled by other blogs that are staffed by many people. For me, that would be the Gawker blogs and Puck Daddy. Frequent content that keeps me coming back like the junkie I am.
Just be patient. Icethetics will be back. And bashing Chris won't help make that reality happen any sooner.
Wow I can't believe this vendetta against Chris, this is truly a great site, and working television is especially time consuming. Chris doesn't have to devote as much time as he does to this site, but he does it for his love of hockey and art. Just give the guy a break.
I, like Dave, have also voluteered to fill in for Chris, but there's no way that either of us dould do nearly as good of a job. Until Chris gets back, the best we can do is post any news that WE find here. Keep up the good work, Chris, and we hope to see you back soon.
"The Avalanche will introduce a third jersey that will be worn for the first time in an unspecified mid-November game. A press conference will act as the grand unveiling a day or two before the game."

This Chris probably only jumped on the hockey bandwagon when TB won the cup, now they are sucking, he is losing interest. Bet he spends more time watching nascar or tractor pulling or whatever they get off on down in the deep south.
@ soso:
Tampa Bay, Florida is as different from the "deep south" as New York, Chicago, or Denver is. Sure, they may not get snow, but it's not like he's from the bayous of Louisianna. And more to point, if you dislike the man who runs this site as much as you apparently do, why even bother coming to it?
Come on Soso. Why bash? you still come here to look so your interested, and just want more. its an addiction. Concepts posts would be nice! but who knows whats going on in hi life right now. and its taking his time from the site. we cant get mad about it.
I like news and ICEHL but I have to agree that more concepts would be amazing.
Btw, what happened to Matt rebranding the NHL serie ? I liked it...
LOL
