0668: Around the AHL
Monday · Dec 16 · 2013 | 8:00 AM PST
Welcome to Minor League Week on the Concepts page! And just to get really crazy, we're doing individual theme days within this theme week. As you can see, today is about the American Hockey League. Thomas Hopkins gets us started with this clever use of the old Atlanta Flames logo for the Abbotsford Heat. I think a grey and red team would look fantastic!
Ryan Haslett decided to get a little creative with his hometown Toronto Marlies, creating a new crest to go with his two-tone blue sweater. Another solid one there!
A newcomer to the Concepts page, Cody Smith reimagined the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins a little with this wordmark-centric uniform set. The throwback to the Pittsburgh jersey from the '90s saves it.
And we'll wrap up with Avi Stein's idea for a Binghamton Senators third jersey. The "B" works just as well as the "O" there — if not better!
Tomorrow we'll see some of the entries to the ECHL's 2015 All-Star Game jersey design contest.

Great ideas! everyone is a winner
These are all fantastic. Great work!
The Abbotsford Heat one is so perfect and obvious that it is criminal that the Flames didn't use it. They own the rights to that logo and instead went with an extremely boring word mark. The sweaters shown here are decent, but the logo is brilliant and an absolute no-brainer.
The Abbotsford Heat concept is excellent. Well done Thomas! Send it to production now!
This makes me wonder why the Heat don't already use the flaming A for a logo.
Using the old Atlanta "A" logo for the Abbotsford Heat... brilliant!! It's one of those "why didn't I think of that" ideas! And that charcoal grey WOULD be a cool colour.
All of these concepts are all great not because of their designs (they're all strong, but not amazing), but because they're so classical and extremely realistic in terms of being used. They're all ready to use right away!
Love the Abbotsford jersey in particular. I wonder why the Flames haven't thought of this yet, as they do own the Heat.
All of these AHL Concepts are fantastic, love the Abbotsford Atlanta Flames logo. Good job!!!!!!!!!!
