The Stars are getting a new look next fall. Pat Westin has an idea that involves simplifying everything. Though I can't help but wonder if the W-shaped stripes are anything other than the designer's signature hiding in plain sight. (By the way, this concept was obviously made prior to last week. Morrow won't get a chance to wear the new look — whatever it is.)

Here I believe is proof that messing with a classic doesn't always mean messing it up. Antonio Calisto came up with a couple of alternate sweaters for the Montreal Canadiens that are not replicas of anything they've worn in the past. And wouldn't you know it, they're actually pretty darn good.

Um, it was either post this on Freak Out Friday or April Fool's Day. I usually love Justin Cox's work, and while I like this unique take here, I hope it never sees NHL ice.

Ross Taylor treats us to a unique set of concepts on the Opening Day of the MLB's 2013 season. Baseball and hockey collide today on Icethetics.
What do you think?

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.
