I, personally, don't care for the greenish-navy as a color, but as a unique creative endeavor I like what you're trying. As for your alternate logo, circle logos are tired and lazy, but I really like yours because it's neither tired nor lazy.

That Phx concept is really great, one of the more interesting takes on the Coyote's I've seen. I think that original logo and the navajo trim works much better with the more limited colour palette than it did on the original jerseys.

Here's my take on the Oilers

The home and road are pretty self explanatory, but very fitting. The alternate is a not-so-subtle nod to the WHA's Edmonton Oilers, pre-dynasty.

I ran into some problems with the last two concepts, because I prefer the royal-blue uniforms for both teams on principle... however, the islanders best look of all time was navy, and the navy/copper/red scheme of the oilers is one of my favorite color schemes in any sport. That said, I felt like the Oilers SHOULD be in their dynasty look, despite the appeal of the modern color scheme.

LEAFIES ASSEMBLE... I've done your team.

A few quick points to hit:

I tried to use the 3-stripe motif to better tie their traditional sock pattern into the rest of the look. you can't have a leafs uniform without those busy socks, so you might as well make it fit with the rest of the look. out with the double stripes, and in with the triple.

The logo I used is my own modernization of the classic leaf, though it's so slightly modified that i doubt most would notice. What bugs me about the current leafs "classic" logo is that the text is horribly off-center. I can't look at it without getting annoyed. I fixed that, and went with the "mouseresque" font that i associate with the leafs of MY childhood. sort of a mix of both elements that scream "leafs" to me, both historically and personally.

The alternate jersey is based on the classic king clancy era look, with a nod to the toronto arenas in the crest. It's a little busy, but i've always loved that classic leafs sweater, so i figured i'd throw in a reference to it.

That's absolutely teriffic. I've always liked their older leaf logo, but I like how you tied the different eras together by maintaining the modern day font. They go together well! Did you darken up the blue, too?

The alt jersey's crest reminds me of the Rangers.

The straight text in the leaf is bugging me. Can you centre it and have it still arched?

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

Leafs:

I'd blow the shield up on the alt, make that sucker nice and big to fill it out. Otherwise a fantastic concept!

Kings:

I've always hated purple and yellow, but even I admit those unis would be pretty darn badass.

Islanders:

I love this set dearly. The alt you made is incredible. Definitely in contention for best set of the series.

Oilers:

I agree that the Oilers copper/red/navy look was unique, but second the notion of making the Oilers how you made them for the fans.
