Concept Collection 42

Got a handful of concept art to share. No theme on this one, just a mish-mash of some interesting ideas.

Been getting a lot of Panthers concepts, by the way. Thinking the next post may be Florida-themed.

I would like Mason's Hawks jersey even better if the numbers and patches traded places.

if the oil used that as they're alternate, they would have with the blackhawks the best jerseys in hockey,

Ryan's sens concept is really slick. Loving it a lot.

As well, we were all fearing that the Islanders might release a black jersey, but if anythng, Louie has the best it'll get.

I really enjoy the Capitals jersey as a possible third. The Blackhawks is nice, maybe a future Winter Classic design. The swapping of the numbers and shoulder patches is an interesting idea and i think it works in this case.

The Caps jersey is awesome. The rest... Not so much

If the Isles go the black jersey route that's about as good as it would get. It's not that the jersey is bad it just doesn't seem like their colours mesh very well with black. The Sens one is interesting, I think I would prefer if they went with thicker stripes but I like that it's not just a barberpole jersey.

Have to echo the Isles comments. I am 100% against an Isles black jersey, but this is probably the best black concept I've seen yet.

That Oil 3rd jersey is pretty cool. The shoulder patch logo looks awesome, simple and clean.

Agree on the Islanders. THeir colors just wouldn't go well with black, IMHO.

I'm in the distinct minority here, I guess. That Isles concept is awful. Being the least sucktacular Isles black-concept jersey is kind of like being the cleanest junkie in the crack house. The Sens' is a good start, but why not finish the striping around the whole sleeve and body? And though the Oil's third is sharp-looking, why would you want to make their jerseys look like the Penguins'?

The Chicago one is the best, I think. Simple and classic look.

Agree with the sentiments on the black Isles jersey. It sort of reminds me of the AHL Phantoms black jersey from 2008ish. Just obviously replacing the purple with blue, not awful.

I didn't know the Mets played hockey. In all seriousness, I think the Mets have showed that black, blue, and orange is not the best color combination.

I really like Ryan's Sens 3rd sweater concept. It seems if the Sens were to bring a 3rd sweater it would be an homage to the original Senators, and this is one of the best.

I can see the Capitals using that as a 3rd sweater. Maybe they should wear red helmets and pants with that blue sweater.

Nice balance of red, white and blue on the Caps jersey. I like the Hawks' secondary logo low that way. It frames the primary logo very well and its three-color combination doesn't compete with the primary logo. And of course, the Sens' 'O' is far better than the Playmobil-man Roman head. Great work!

the Blackhawks jersey reminds me of the old Cleveland Barons

that hawks jersey is pretty hetero

Jul 22 · 9:48 AM PDT | Unregistered Commenterharrison

the mets black uniform looks exactly like that. Idk if it works or not, but they have shown that it can and use that alternate often. And since the blue and orange are very similar that concept will probably be the type of thing created by the Islanders.
