0699: Feelin' Retro in Jersey

i
643 VOTES

If the New Jersey Devils are ever tapped for a Winter Classic, will they just wear the standard red and green? Or could they pull a Rangers/Flyers and go faux retro? If it's the latter, Matt Marczel may have hit the nail on the head.

0581: Caps Going Outdoors Again

This Winter Classic Weekend post is a topical one. The Washington Capitals announced today they'll be hosting the 2015 NHL Winter Classic. But we want to know what jersey they'll wear. My bet is it'll be red but what if they tweaked the white one from 2011, like this concept from Matt Marczel?

0563: Fixing the Sharks

i

The San Jose Sharks' new uniforms got pretty mixed reviews when it was unveiled. And plenty of readers had suggestions for how they could improve them. To that end, I have a couple of great ideas to share today. First, our hero of hand-drawn art Morgo Uxbridge proves shoulder yokes aren't a dealbreaker, but you really need something in the waist area.

And regular contributor Matt Marczel proves the same, but in a different way. Kind of a bummer looking at these and seeing what the Sharks missed out on.

0537: Classic Philly Stripes

i
811 VOTES

I can't quite put my finger on the reason why, but this is really what the Philadelphia Flyers should be wearing. I don't have many quarrels with their existing look, but Matt Marczel brings bold striping and and a shade of orange that combine to create an amazing kit. Really well done.

0509: How to Fix the Senators

i
825 VOTES

Nobody likes the Ottawa Senators' uniforms. Let's just be honest about that. They use an ugly, generic template and have no regard whatsoever for the club's own history — recent, ancient or otherwise. So Matt Marczel puts forth this solution. I approve. Is there anyone who doesn't?

0355: Sabres or Swords?

This one is sort of a mix of old and new. Matt Marczel says he "was inspired by the old Cinncinati Swords of the AHL during the '70s" for this concept. Their classic look would still work today. But then so would Buffalo's original jerseys from the 1970s. If only they could lose all the extraneous silver piping and fix the blue.

For reference, here's a look at the old Swords jersey.
