KBacon93 3 Posted June 8, 2015 Saw this on a Facebook ad for likely a fake merch site. Shows how great of an identity the Bolts could have while still keeping a traditional look for Y.The guy who runs nhlunfiroms.com posted a concept after seeing your post (he mentions it on the post)Looks 100X better than their current setI genuinely hate to say it because this looks phenomenal, but all I can see is the LA Kings. If tampa wants to embrace Blue over Black they need to ditch black altogether and add grey or silver. or best case both. Only wear black if they decide to go back to their original uniforms or an updated version of said sweaters. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chromatic 2,419 Posted June 8, 2015 Just found this concept from a couple years ago. I always thought that black was the wrong direction for the Lightning, but navy and silver added a lot to the identity, as well as a more creative template.Double blue is a bit tired looking at this point. Blue, Black and Silver is unique to the lightning and works well for them. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CreamSoda 2,105 Posted June 8, 2015 Just found this concept from a couple years ago. I always thought that black was the wrong direction for the Lightning, but navy and silver added a lot to the identity, as well as a more creative template.I like the look of the blue sweater but the white is too empty. Could make the sleeves and hemline silver. Replaced Navy with black. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chewbacca 401 Posted June 9, 2015 I like the look of the blue sweater but the white is too empty. Could make the sleeves and hemline silver. Replaced Navy with black.Those aren't too bad.Or the Avs could just go to this:This is actually not too bad. I like that it isn't as clunky as their Original Set. I'd make the Mountain Stripes on the bottom smaller. I still think your first mockup is way, way better though. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fouhy12 1,249 Posted June 9, 2015 Or the Avs could just go to this:It looks like I'm in the minority, but I absolutely cannot stand this uniform. The road uniform in particular is awful because it tries to cram burgundy, blue, black, and silver together. The blue just seems to get lost in the shuffle making the uniform look like it is just burgundy and black from far away. The template is good, but the colors need to be reworked before I'd like it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CreamSoda 2,105 Posted June 9, 2015 Replaced all black with Navy and added a third jersey to tie in the navy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Morgan33 4,032 Posted June 10, 2015 What a joke... The Hockey News did a ranking of all the NHL's shoulder patches and the Avalanche made the top 3! How they can ditch one of the most creative and visually attractive secondary marks in the league is beyond me. Bet you anything tweaked uniforms will look like absolute garbage. Maybe they can pull a Calgary Flames and have the new patch in Rockies colours... If you're going to be the worst dressed team in the league, you should own it and go all the way. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keeping the aprons.The Avs are about to go from one of the worst looks to the AVSOLUTE worst dressed in the NHL.Apparently all the Avs "Yeti Foot" merchandise is on sale now...Not looking good for the little guy.On sale where?Altitude Authentics at the Pepsi Center. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suns1977 261 Posted June 11, 2015 Not sure if this concept was already posted or not, apologies if it's a duplicate.I can't tell if this is the greatest combination of colors for a hockey jersey or the worst. I'm just sitting and staring. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stampman 102 Posted June 11, 2015 The black doesn't work at all--the other colours could--but as a fan concept it's not that bad.Except the logo...Can't say why, other than it doesn't really look good to me--especially compared to anything they've already had. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fillmont 18 Posted June 11, 2015 Not quite NHL, but the Texas Stars have revealed new logos and colors for the 2015/2016 season.Essentially they are conforming to the look of the Dallas Stars. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That logo is just kinda off as well...looks like a pet dog with rabies rather than a coyote.I agree about the front numbers. The more I look at this, I actually like the odd color combo. But the rabid-looking wolf-dog thing looks dumb. I think this with either the original kachina mask or an updated version would look interesting. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
