I recently came upon a story that's been out there a very long time — that I apparently never followed up on. Last December, the ECHL announced the winner of its 2015 All-Star Classic jersey design contest.

The contest began in early December and the winner was named the day before Christmas Eve. It turns out Jordan Roberts was the creator of the winning look.

One of the finalists was frequent Icethetics and IceHL concept contributor Matt McElroy. He created Option C in the graphic above.

The 2015 ECHL All-Star Classic, hosted by the Orlando Solar Bears, will take place at the Amway Center in Orlando, Fla. on Jan. 21, 2015.

The game will feature a showdown between the host team and the ECHL All-Stars. The Solar Bears' All-Star Classic jersey has not yet been released.

What do you think of the winning design? And what do you think the Solar Bears will do?
