0062: Brand-Blending Philly and Ohio

As promised, Ross Taylor is back on this Freak Out Friday with more of his brand-blending madness. This week he's tackling Pennsylvania and Ohio and not just crossing teams, but crossing leagues. On one side, we have a mix of the WHA's Philadelphia Blazers and the NHL's Flyers. The Philadelphia Flyzers, if you will. And on the other, it's the Cleveland Crusaders of the WHA and the NHL's Blue Jackets, which I'm choosing to call the Ohio Bluesaders. More logo-melding to come next Friday.

the Flyers need to make this a third jersey...it's that good!

The Flames-esque fire works well on the Flyers/Blazers mashup, I've gotta say.

The Philadelphia Flames?

These are pretty sweet. Being a Flyer and CBJ fan it was the perfect post. That PHI logo would be a sweet 3rd. And the CBJ/Ohio jersey is a beauty. Nice socks too!

Is that a purple version of the New York Guardians' alt logo I see on the Ohio jersey's shoulder? That's a cool touch if it is and both jerseys look really good either way.

The Flyers one is alright, however I really like the ohio/columbus mix and looks like it could be a cool alternate concept for the LA Kings

The Flyers one is phat with a PH!

really like the ohio design and would love to see their dark home look.
the philly one is ok, but isn't pushed far enough. is it really that much different than the flyer's past black jerseys? maybe it is, but not nearly as drastic as we've seen in ross' other mashups. i'd love to see the blazers' red and yellow added, maybe get rid of the orange altogether or take it down to a "trim" level.

How about the Knights of Columbus?
