In today's concept, Avi Stein imagines a rebranding for the Columbus Blue Jackets as the Columbus Generals — you know, after a few military promotions. For a crest, he's opting for the unused logo seen in a video on the Blue Jackets' official website last year. For the shoulders, he's borrowing a logo originally designed by Tim E. O'Brien.

This weekend, Chance and Jake Waddell bring us the next set of jerseys in their Winter Classic series. Last week, Caleb was first to comment and asked to see Columbus and Tampa Bay featured in this one.
If you want to pick the next two teams, you know what to do.
This week seems to be all about changing the color palettes of existing teams. So why not give it a shot in Columbus? If the Stars were to switch to red, white and blue, maybe the Blue Jackets could switch away from it. Justin Cox infuses some gold into a design inspired by the club's alternate jersey. It's a pretty sharp look and would certainly be unique in the NHL.

The Re-Bourne series took a brief break during Minor League Week, but Andrew Bourne is back with his take on the Columbus Blue Jackets. He didn't send me a description on this one so you'll have to fill in the blanks on your own.

If there's one thing the Columbus Blue Jackets need more of, it's cannon. There are three cannon in this one concept alone by James Tyalor. What do you think? Should the third jersey logo become the primary mark some day?

Today we're looking to Colin May's rather untraditional look for the Columbus Blue Jackets. I kind of like the sash-style striping, but I wouldn't cut it off there, I'd go all the way over the top and around the back.

Colin took a stab at some revisions. He also tells me he's working on an All-Star version as suggested in the comments.

And here's that All-Star version I mentioned.

Before the Columbus Blue Jackets ever turn up in a Winter Classic, they need to get a lot better. But I think they'll make it eventually. Ohio is a great place for outdoor hockey. And when the time comes, perhaps the team could honor its in-state predecessor. That's what Trevor Richards has for us — a Blue Jackets uniform with all the marks of the old Cleveland Barons.
