I've decided to switch things up on Sundays — alternating between a couple of series. We'll stick to the beer league concepts every other week and do some neat international concepts in between. This week, the very prolific Matt McElroy presents a really sharp sweater for Team China. We saw his first attempt at this idea back in 2010.

This Winter Classic Weekend takes us to the Mile High City for an outdoor match-up between the Colorado Avalanche and the St. Louis Blues — only designer Mike Bell has the Avs sporting a Rockies-inspired uniform. The Rockies trace their lineage to today's New Jersey Devils. Not sure the Avalanche would be wild about that notion. The Blues sweater is pretty neat though. This obviously would no longer be an option for 2014, but maybe 2015?

Sacrilege. Pure and simple. Brian Brideau has done the unthinkable, mixing two of hockey's most recognizable brands. He even snuck some Flames in there. (Did you catch it?) Wait until you see what he has in store for next Friday. That's right, a Freak Out Friday two-parter! To be continued...
Supposedly if the Coyotes stay put next season, the city of Glendale wants them to be renamed the Arizona Coyotes. Brandon Manzione put together this simplified look for the team should that actually happen.

Today, we get a look at what the Wild could look like if they borrowed some colors from their state's predecessor — the North Stars. Bastian Schmülling shares a green and gold look for Minnesota this morning.

Anyone remember the old "Silver Seven" — the Ottawa Senators of olde? Of course not. You weren't born yet. But that hasn't stopped John Elbertson from created this tribute to the century-old club. I'm kind of intrigued by how good the silver looks in place of the gold in the logo.

John read some of your notes and took another stab. What do you think of his revised Senators jerseys?

Gary Punzak tells me he started tweaking the Penguins logo to see what it would look like with modernized equipment. He ended up with a whole new concept that should please a lot of Pittsburgh fans. This comes on the heals of the disappointing revelation by a Pens beat writer who says the team will not have a new third next season. I think a lot of folks were hoping for something like this.
