Your Sunday Concept Fix

I've been getting some great concept art submissions in the past couple weeks, but I wanted to keep Haiti at the top of the page for a little while. I just added a few new items to that post, by the way. But now I think it's time to start sharing some of the other great artwork that's been coming in.

Mark Komondor	We'll begin with the Penguins and a concept created by an artist brand new to Icethetics. These are his first submissions and he sure seems to know what Pens fans want. Imagine Crosby in the same uniforms that Lemieux and Jagr once wore when they lifted the Stanley Cup together. Of the first one, he writes: I was going for a throwback look by incorporating elements from the late 80s/early 90s sweaters the Pens wore when they won two stanley cups. I took that uniform and simplified it, using the Wild's red home sweater as a guide. I feel like this is a good mixture of the 90s elements, and the circle logo which has found popularity on the blue sweaters. He says the other is simply a combination of the jerseys worn just prior to and since the Age of Reebok.
Adam L'Italien	Adam's Canucks concept makes some revisions to the new Johnny Canuck/V logo introduced on the third jersey last year. He says, why not use the full-body JC on the V? But the most important thing about this jersey: it's green!
Brian Brideau	Rumors that the Predators plan to launch new home and road jerseys for 2010-11 could result in something like what Brian has come up with here. In fact, these should look familiar. I posted the first two jerseys two weeks ago. What's new is the blue alternate sweater Brian has now added. For the most part, I like this one. The striping is unique but the Flyers-copycat nameplate is what I think needs to be revised. I truly hope differently-colored nameplates do not become a league-wide fad.

More concepts coming during the week.
