Someday the Vancouver Canucks will have to figure into the NHL Winter Classic. And when they do, Colin May has a couple of uniform designs that could work quite well. I know we all like to mock the V jerseys (especially in those colors), but I think this blue and green look is pretty sharp. But if that's not your cup of tea, what about this one below?

This Winter Classic sweater by Ryan Haslett is sort of an offshoot of the New York Rangers' current third jersey. Ryan proposed it as an alternative to what the Rangers wore to last year's outdoor game — you know, instead of that cream thing with the shield.

Bill Grafner wants a Winter Classic to take place in California and he's designed a logo and pinpointed jerseys he'd like to see used. Here's what he has to say about it.
This is the hopes that maybe to apologize for a lockout, maybe we can get two winter classics next year. One on the East Coast and than a night game here in L.A. Temps at night should be great for a game and if Vegas can host an outdoor game so can we. I choose the sharks because of the fact that the Seals were also an expansion six team and the great rivalry between Southern California and Northern California.
I know some will say the Ducks but I feel the expansion six is a stronger toe in for a Winter Classic. I choose the California Seal logo and put it on the original Sharks colors for the fans to relate and a throwback to the original Sharks jersey. I went with the gold for the Kings because that was the jersey they wore for the Miracle on Manchester.
I know the Winter classic is supposed to be dark jerseys at home, but the Miracle means a lot to fans here and we already had the forum blue in games versus the Canucks and as a throwback jersey so this is a better jersey for a winter classic. Also, then the Sharks can be in teal not white or cream color.
I also included a fun Winter Classic Logo. I know it may be a bit busy but that is how we do it here in L.A.

It's looking less and less like the first Winter Classic to feature a Canadian club will be nothing more than a dream. But that hasn't stopped the concepts from rolling in. This one from Tex Fischer is a little different from options we've seen in the past.

Here's another Detroit-Toronto Winter Classic concept. I'm posting this even as we wait for word on whether the game will even be played at all. I like this one because it's simple and quickly identifiable. Nobody turning on the TV on January 1 would have to look twice to see which teams were playing. Now let's just hope they get to play.

It's another Winter Classic Weekend. What about this Colin May design for the Canucks?

If the Boston Bruins play in another Winter Classic in the near future, they'll most likely be the visitor, having hosted one of their own already. So they'll probably need a white jersey like the one Bastian Schmülling has designed.
