Kings of Los Angeles
/The L.A. Kings will take it outside with the Sharks this season, and they'll need some new jerseys (probably). So David Kerr had this idea. What do you think?

On this College Saturday, David Kerr tackles Nova Scotia's Dalhousie University. He presents a few different Tigers jersey options. And for a look at what the team currently wears, David provides this link.
0669: ECHL All-Stars in 2015
/
This epic Minor League Week continues with some of the submissions to the ECHL's 2015 All-Star Game jersey design contest. The submission period ended last Friday and voting begins tomorrow. Maybe we'll see some of these included in the mix.
We start with a wealth of design ideas from John Elbertson. First is a design that's more in tune with the Orlando Solar Bears' branding. As the host of next season's event, there's little doubt the All-Star jersey will bear(!) their colors.
Then John also submitted a couple of more traditional-style designs in those eye-catching colors. The ECHL will only need one All-Star jersey because the All-Star team will face the Solar Bears in the game. But they've definitely got plenty of options from John alone.
David Kerr went a different route with this sunrise design. Or is a sunset? I could see the All-Stars rocking one of those.
Chad Jeske would have the team in white with a big star across the chest. Another solid design here.
Teal seems to be the most popular color among these designers. Brian Kolis added a twist to his jersey, though, with some sunny sleeve numbers. Lots of creativity in these designs!
BONUS CONCEPT
Why should the ECHL get to have all the All-Star fun? Scott Markiewicz design a couple of jerseys for a future AHL All-Star Classic. It might look like he was inspired by the NHL's Stadium Series jerseys, but no! In fact, Scott submitted this back in September before there was even any hint of those Stadium sweaters.
It helps that Matt McElroy foresaw Reebok's new jersey cut with his IceBorn template months before it was unveiled. Psychic! You can download IceBorn from the Icethetics Concept Templates page.
0462: Dallas in Winterland

Hope you guys aren't getting tired of the Stars yet. We still have a lot to do. And being this is a Winter Classic Weekend post, I thought I'd share this one from Justin Wiltron. The throwback feels of both sweaters could work should the Stars ever participate in an outdoor game.
BONUS CONCEPT
David Kerr was first to get me a concept featuring the apparent new logos of the Dallas Stars, which leaked on Thursday night. The striping is a little similar to the Blackhawks but overall it's a pretty sharp look. I wouldn't be surprised to see something similar when I'm in Dallas on June 4.
0459: Dallas Stars III
/
On Day 1 we had one concept. On Day 2, two concepts. Today is Day 3 of Dallas Stars Week. First up is Brian Brideau, who's borrowed his design from a couple of sources. First, the running theme of the day is the Stars logo designed by Torch Creative and how it's been implemented by our artists. Brian's also borrowed the new jersey design recently unveiled by the WHL's Prince Albert Raiders. Overall, it's a very cool look!
Bastian Schmülling went with a green-only version of Torch's logo. His monochromatic set is absolutely gorgeous as far as I'm concerned. It's the Red Wings of green sweaters and one of my favorite concepts.
Finally, David Paul Kerr shares his primary and alternate uniform designs based on the Torch logos. He has a more traditional sensibility that includes Dallas' gold and black. All three of these are great. And while Torch has said they did not design the team's new logo, they've put together an awesome concept.
