Here's a color scheme we haven't yet seen in a Lightning concept. I like the blue and silver a lot, actually. Any thoughts on Steven Grant's attempt.
Today brings the other half of our Freak Out Friday two-parter. Last week, you saw Steven Grant's take on what a Nordiques-inspired Whalers jersey might look like. So how about the other way around?
In the first of a Freak Out Friday two-parter, Steven Grant has designed a Hartford Whalers jersey inspired by the Quebec Nordiques. Next Friday, the other way around.
Every once in a while we get one of those off-the-wall concept jerseys. This is definitely not the sort of thing we normally see. Steven Grant's green Canucks sweater is a novel idea even if it isn't perfect. I like the two-tone green stripes but I feel like the logo and numbers on the chest get a little lost in the shuffle. Curious to know what you guys think of this style.
I"m not sure why, but I've been receiving a lot of Los Angeles Kings concepts lately. This one by Steven Grant stands out because I could actually see it being worn on NHL ice. It's a throwback inasmuch as the Flyers' 2012 Winter Classic jersey was a throwback. It borrows elements from the club's history while creating a whole new look with purple and silver. I really do love this. I'm no Kings fan, but this is one jersey I could see adding to my small collection.
