0334: Original Boston

I think Nick Burton just knocked one out of the park. When the Boston Bruins inevitably return to Winter Classic action, this is the sweater they must wear. They must then make it their full time road jersey and create a home sweater to match. They would never need another jersey for the rest of time.

0292: Grizzly Gold

Ever since their Winter Classic appearance, I've always wanted to see the Boston Bruins bring back a gold third jersey. Here's a neat option from Justin Wiltron, which borrows the bear from the team's secondary logo.

0210: Outdoors in White

If the Boston Bruins play in another Winter Classic in the near future, they'll most likely be the visitor, having hosted one of their own already. So they'll probably need a white jersey like the one Bastian Schmülling has designed.

0179: A Bruin That Shows Its Teeth

Boston Bruins logos have always been more influenced by their city that their team nickname. Here, Jake Bartal has put together a design with a few more teeth — literally.

And if black and gold doesn't work for you, how about brown as another color option?

0140: Bruins Re-Bourne

Andrew Bourne's NHL makeover series continues today with the Boston Bruins. His comments about this design can be found below.

The current color scheme for the Bruins is black, gold and white. It is cool because you can say that you are rooting for the black and gold (which sounds way better than rooting for the brown and gold), but I believe that the Bruins should embrace their past and have one of the more unique color palettes in the NHL. Who else could pull off a brown jersey? No one, that's who.

I actually didn't change too much on these jerseys because I believe that the Bruins organization has gotten it right (as far as overall jersey layout is concerned). The small difference from the NHL layout to the 305cHL layout shows up in the striping and in the shoulder area. As far as the alternate jersey goes, The Bruins need a gold jersey that works. Gold is a rare color in the NHL (at least it was) and they need to embrace their uniqueness.

0131: Beantown Bees

Bees. First thing I thought of when I saw this Bruins jersey by Brian Brideau. But as I keep looking at it, I can't help but like it. I realized that it's unlike any other jersey in the NHL because of one thing. There isn't a speck of white on it. Every other NHL jersey either has white or some variation (silver or something cream-like). It's true. Now, there's nothing wrong with white, I just think it might be something to see a jersey without it.

0073: Vintage Bruins

Vintage Week rages on with a fantastic retro-style Boston Bruins concept by featured concept artist Micah Loyed. The set even includes a 90th anniversary patch — an event which is still a couple of years off. Still, with great colors and a beautiful uncluttered design, I've yet to see anything bad from Micah in this series.
