Today, we get a look at what the Wild could look like if they borrowed some colors from their state's predecessor — the North Stars. Bastian Schmülling shares a green and gold look for Minnesota this morning.

I want to swear and say this is effing gorgeous. I can not see a single thing I don't like about this concept. I already want this to be concept of the year. Absolutely amazing.
Very nice but there two things I'd change: get rid of the underarm stripes and change the arm stripes on the white jersey to match the white socks.
I've been following this blog for a long time and I'm always extremely picky about Minnesota jerseys. I always think about if the jersey is something that I'd be ok seeing when I go to games. This is an amazing jersey and I hope they find a way to do something similar. My only issue is that I feel like the logo doesnt really work with the colors. Maybe try using their circular crest or using the scripted Minnesota like they have on the third jersey. Overall, this is my favorite Wild concept I've seen.
I don't like the stripes (If they can be called that) under the arms. It just looks silly. I'd prefer a full stripe along the waist. Other than that, the colors and rest of the jersey is 100% right on the money. Very solid concept.
I don't like the Wild logo recolored....The jersey is nice, but leave the logo, and add red as a trim on the jersey and this looks a lot better
This looks familiar.....and I like it!
i love the white in the logo, but not sure i like it like that on the white jersey. it looks great on the green and by itself.
love it but i'm curious to see how the armpit stripe looks on the ice
This could work if the sky in the logo was red. It's the kind of accent that would really pop on the logo, like the multi-coloured chief's head on the Hawks.
I think this is a very solid effort. The reason i come to this site daily. Its not exactly my tastes but i love the nod back to the north star type colors. I'm curious as to what it could look if the colors were the exact same as the north stars.
Really great concept. I think the "away" white looks fantastic and crisp... the reason that home teams should wear white i think.
Needs shoulder patches. and maybe some red still.
Not a bad look, but I'd hate to see Minnesota change their colour scheme at all. It's distinctive and, IMO, looks very nice.
Nice, these will look nice when Dallas wears them.
