Go Blue
/College Saturday picks up with Matt McElroy's take on the University of Michigan. Here's a look at the team's existing jerseys.
Unique Utica
/One of the complaints that came with the introduction of the AHL's Utica Comets was its reliance on the look of its parent club. The Comets wear Canucks jerseys with a different logo on the front. Last week, a couple of people asked to see a concept and a couple of artists obliged.
Matt McElroy submitted the design above, writing: "Here's my take on a Comets "clash" style jersey. I've gotten sort of tired of the traditional home and away set up so this jersey is design to just be a "clash" to what the other team wears. Home or road; doesn't matter."
Justin Wiltron went in a slightly different direction, changing the team's primary color to green. Or perhaps this would work as a nice third jersey.
Olympic Dreams on the British Isles
/This week we're looking at concepts for nations that are not playing Olympic hockey in Sochi. Today, we head to the British Isles where Matt McElroy put together this set for Ireland. It's no surprise the Irish aren't participating. The highest they've ever been ranked by the IIHF is 40th. (And they once lost a game to Romania 22-0. A hockey game.)
David Parkinson takes us across the Irish Sea for a set of British uniforms. The crest is a little hard to see over the chest stripe, but I like the use of Nike's new shoulder embellishments. What do you think of these two sets?
