0663: Tampa Bay Fauxback
Alan Moore has merged the Lightning's current look with its original one. Here's his explanation:
Here's a Lightning alternate concept. It's more of a logo concept than a jersey concept, as the jersey is almost identical to their pre-Edge look. I do like their current home and away, but I think the alternate is out of place now.
I modified their existing secondary logo to look more like their original primary mark, adding a silver background and using the shape of the original bolt but with a more modest drop shadow. Sort of a fauxback idea.
I also applied a blue drop shadow to their existing number font. It's intended to be a throwback to their first season look.

I love the logo used here, and I can honestly say I like this better than their current alternate. I'm not the biggest fan of their current home/road set, I think it's severely lacking black. Make this the alternate and retire that aweful "bolts" mess of a uni. My favorite part of this concept has got to be the VICTORY STRIPES!! They really should have kept them on their home/away set. Overall 8/10
Number 1, make it so!
From all of the comments I read about Tampa Bay's newer jersey set, I seem to be in the minority. I feel that they are gtear; I love the simplistic look to them.
That being said, I would LOVE to see this sweater as a third! It looks great!
