0164: Give It More Electricity!

I can't explain it, but today feels like a Tampa Bay Lightning kind of day. And ever prolific, Brian Brideau has been working on a few different ideas. I'm sharing not one, not two, but three of them with you today!

Same idea for two different eras of Lightning hockey. And this last one is here just because I think it's too funny.

Love the third one. I think it's time to bring back all those over-the-top '90's jerseys because they were all kickass

The first one is a little overkill on the lightning bolts. The second one, however, pulls it of. I miss the lightning's old look.

The third one is just ugly.

Ya know..I actually dig the lightning bolt as a stripe below the shoulders.

Looks like what the Wichita Thunder of the CHL wore back in 2006-07.

Looks more like the minor league jerseys you'd see worn for one game. The second one isn't bad, but I prefer traditional striping on the sleeves and waist. There needs to be a lightning bolt on the pants too!

I feel like they're uniforms that I would have to see on a player before i made a fair assessment.

Second one nailed it! Just add the bolt back to the pants and you have a winner. With a name called Lightning it should have an electric , powerful feel

More bolts on socks!

The update is SO much cleaner with the straight striping on the bottom. The Lightning need bolts for sure, but there is a limit to all good things.

Stupid! It didn't work in the past, no need to re-hash. Hey, how about someone design a Flames jersey with flames on it!
