0460: Dallas Stars IV

We know the Stars are expected to introduce new logos in a couple weeks, but it's likely the slanted star form will continue to be incorporated somehow. Thomas Hopkins basically kept the logo the same but redesign the sweaters with a lot more green and gold.

Todd Varga, on the other hand, stuck to black and white jerseys, but increased the amount of green used. I can honestly say I like this version better. Might be the simplified logo. I'm a sucker for simplicity.

0459: Dallas Stars III

On Day 1 we had one concept. On Day 2, two concepts. Today is Day 3 of Dallas Stars Week. First up is Brian Brideau, who's borrowed his design from a couple of sources. First, the running theme of the day is the Stars logo designed by Torch Creative and how it's been implemented by our artists. Brian's also borrowed the new jersey design recently unveiled by the WHL's Prince Albert Raiders. Overall, it's a very cool look!

Bastian Schmülling went with a green-only version of Torch's logo. His monochromatic set is absolutely gorgeous as far as I'm concerned. It's the Red Wings of green sweaters and one of my favorite concepts.

Finally, David Paul Kerr shares his primary and alternate uniform designs based on the Torch logos. He has a more traditional sensibility that includes Dallas' gold and black. All three of these are great. And while Torch has said they did not design the team's new logo, they've put together an awesome concept.

0458: Dallas Stars II

Dallas Stars Week proceeds with a pair of unique redesigns. Zachary T. Milyak had an interesting idea I've never seen before — turning the "D" itself into a star.

---

Meanwhile, Mark Morgan opted to simplify with his concept. Which of the two do you prefer?

0457: Dallas Stars I

All right, I hope you guys like the Dallas Stars, because we're embarking on two solid weeks of Stars concepts starting today. As you know, the club will officially unveil its new logo and uniforms on June 4. So leading up to the big event will be as many Stars designs as I can fit. We kick it all off with the talented Ross Taylor and his great green and silver take on Dallas.

0456: Team Canada

On this International Sunday we have a neat concept for Canada from Ted Noakes. A blast from the past in more ways than one.

0455: Stadium Series Preview

For the second time in a week we visit with the talented Nick Burton. And as it's Saturday, he has a couple of Winter Classic ideas to share. Up top, we have an orange option for the Islanders — who are expected to face the Rangers during the 2014 NHL Stadium Series. And down below, a white version of the Senators' current third jersey — for when they're hosted by the Canucks in the next Heritage Classic.

0454: Twist on a Habs Classic

Yesterday we looked at a redesign of the untouchable Red Wings. Today, it's the similarly untouchable Canadiens. But unlike the former, the latter should really not be allowed to happen. Ever. Welcome to another Freak Out Friday. I applaud the great effort from Caz Williams, but I'm not sure a faux sash should be worn by the most historic franchise in the NHL.
