0451: Toronto Throwback

Here's a look I really love. Victor You has updated the Leafs' old logo and created a secondary mark inspired by the Toronto Arenas logo. Best of all he's gone with a very dark shade of blue that gives the whole kit a very classic feel.

0450: Stars with a Sliver of Silver

The very prolific Bastian Schmülling has a bright, silver-infused redesign for the Dallas Stars — who will be unveiling their new look on June 4. (By the way, in the lead-up to the big event, expect to see A LOT more Stars concepts on these pages.)

0448: A Future Heritage Classic

This Winter Classic Weekend brings us a look at a future Heritage Classic between the Winnipeg Jets and Edmonton Oilers. Bryan Dyck has a great pair of jerseys here that aren't actually that unrealistic.

0447: WHA Freak Out

Our first ever WHA Week wraps up today with a Freak Out Friday concept from Ted Noakes, who's mixing some teams with this one. He's taken the old Philadelphia/Vancouver Blazers look to meet the WHL's Kamloops Blazers. Personally, I can't say I'd like to see either one of these on a regular basis.

0446: Another Neat WHA Trio

Can you tell it's WHA Week here on the Concepts page? Today also happens to be Icethetics' 6th birthday! Can't believe it's been that long. Anyway, today it's Bastian Schmülling who has sent dozens and dozens of designs over the last several months. And continues to. For this post, he's tackled the Michigan Stags...

...and the old Cleveland Crusaders...

...who later became the Minnesota Fighting Saints. Bastian really loves making these concepts and he has a very distinct style that shows through with each one. We'll continue to see a lot more from him on these pages.

0445: A Neat WHA Trio

Let's blow up WHA Week with not just one or two concepts but three from the prolific Bryan Dyck! Today, he shares his take on the Ottawa Nationals...

...the Houston Aeros (before the AHL team assumed the name)...

...and the Toronto Toros (or Birmingham Bulls depending on the year), who used to be the Nationals. Full circle. Bryan actually did more than just these teams in his own WHA series, but I thought three was enough for today. Tomorrow we get another taste of this — a prolific concept artist with a trio of WHA jerseys.
