0520: Predicting Buffalo's New Third

The Buffalo Sabres this summer have been offering up sneak peeks of their new third jersey, debuting in the fall. Based on these cryptic photos, some of our favorite concept artists have been hard at work trying to sort it all out. For my money, Brian Brideau has come closest, but not quite on the money.

Dylan Wonka may be on to something, but I've been told the front will be gold and the back will be navy. I don't know why I believe it; it sounds ridiculous. But it's just crazy enough that I could see a team like the Sabres doing it.

Lastly, Chris Wright shares this take. Simple, but a little too Nashville. I think we're going to find that in any number of ways, Buffalo will be distancing themselves from the Predators' look despite going with a primarily gold sweater. I'm looking forward to the unveiling. And not to worry, there will be plenty more of these Sabres concepts to come.

0518: Blackhawks Black

One of four Stadium Series games next winter will have the Chicago Blackhawks on hosting duty. Dylan Wonka has an idea for a jersey for the big outdoor game. Seems a bit inspired by what the Hawks wore the last time around.

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!
