0446: Another Neat WHA Trio

Can you tell it's WHA Week here on the Concepts page? Today also happens to be Icethetics' 6th birthday! Can't believe it's been that long. Anyway, today it's Bastian Schmülling who has sent dozens and dozens of designs over the last several months. And continues to. For this post, he's tackled the Michigan Stags...

...and the old Cleveland Crusaders...

...who later became the Minnesota Fighting Saints. Bastian really loves making these concepts and he has a very distinct style that shows through with each one. We'll continue to see a lot more from him on these pages.

0445: A Neat WHA Trio

Let's blow up WHA Week with not just one or two concepts but three from the prolific Bryan Dyck! Today, he shares his take on the Ottawa Nationals...

...the Houston Aeros (before the AHL team assumed the name)...

...and the Toronto Toros (or Birmingham Bulls depending on the year), who used to be the Nationals. Full circle. Bryan actually did more than just these teams in his own WHA series, but I thought three was enough for today. Tomorrow we get another taste of this — a prolific concept artist with a trio of WHA jerseys.

0444: Swimming With Sharks

WHA Week continues with this one from Nick Burton. I'm not sure whether it's intended to be a San Jose Sharks jersey featuring the old Los Angeles Sharks logo — or an L.A. Sharks jerseys with San Jose colors. Either way, it's pretty cool.

0443: Reviving the WHA

You know what we haven't done in a while? A theme week. So I have a solution. This week I'll be featuring all concepts for or inspired by teams from the WHA — the old World Hockey Association. We kick it off with this Indianapolis Racers sweater from Ryan Yuck. It bears the name and number of Wayne Gretzky, who played eight games for the franchise before being sent to Edmonton.

Ryan's back with some revisions to his original design.
