These Winter Classic concepts were designed not long after the first leak of what would've been worn this year back in January. D.C. Visual Arts was also behind the Winter Classic concept that inspired widespread knockoffs in the summer of 2011.
Of course, subsequent leaks this winter showed us what the actual jerseys would've looked like. What still remains to be seen is whether the same jerseys will be used when the game is rescheduled for New Year's Day 2014.
Revival Week wraps up on this Freak Out Friday with the old Pittsburgh Hornets of the American Hockey League. They existed from 1961 until the Penguins franchise was awarded to the city in 1967. Derek Heilmann reimagines their jerseys today as an option for the Pens.
Brandon Manzione moves Revival Week along with this take on the Cleveland Barons. As rebrands go, it's a decent one, but it suffers from the same problem as the Lightning's current uniforms. Many will compare them to the Maple Leafs. Still a neat pair of logos though.
Technically the Toronto St. Pats still exist. They're just known as the Maple Leafs now. Still, this one by Alex O'Dowd might make for a neat St. Patrick's Day jersey for next season in Toronto.
Revival Week continues with Michael Baumann's take on the Quebec Nordiques. Just bring them back already. What are we waiting for?
Feels like time for another theme week to me. And for a trip down memory lane. Once again we resurrect dead pro hockey teams. Today, it's the PCHA's Seattle Metropolitans via Adam Hainsfurther. I particularly like how he's given each color its own distinct name — sort of the way the Blue Jackets did.
Following this original post, Adam has put together a revised version with a third jersey and some new logos.
