0470: Predicting a New Storm

We're taking a break from International Sundays this week for a look at what our concept artists are predicting for the Carolina Hurricanes' uniform unveiling on Tuesday. The team has released a series of teaser photos over the last 10 days and that's what a lot of these designs are based on. First up is a little something from newcomer Magnus Björk.


Kevin Mueller sees things slightly differently. This is his take.


And finally, Bryan Dyck came up with this — albeit earlier on during the Canes' teaser reveals. Which one do you think will end up being the closest to the actual design? Remember, the unveiling takes place Tuesday at noon ET.

0464: Leaked Logo Mania

After the Dallas Stars accidentally leaked their new logos last week, Icethetics concept artists went straight to work! On Saturday we got a taste of how the new logos could be used, and as we start the second week of nonstop Stars concepts, we get a little more. Dylan Wonka has done a phenomenal job by incorporating elements of the club's original jerseys from 1993.


Meanwhile, Bryan Dyck put together these. I think what we're seeing is that given the new logos and the new color palette, it'll be hard for the Stars to get this wrong. I'm anticipating a great new look for this team next Tuesday!

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.

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.

0388: A Gold Star

I've received a lot of Dallas Stars concepts since the team announced their intentions to launch a rebrand next season, but I'm trying to spread them out a bit here. Today, we get a look at another one from Bryan Dyck. Unfortunately, it's a little too dull for my tastes. But I do like the slanted collegiate-style numbers. I don't think anyone has done that since the Tampa Bay Lightning during their second season in 1993-94 — coincidentally the Stars' first in Dallas.
