DTConcepts Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 I actually like the update. The Habs' jerseys are classic, but this is a nice addition. I've only seen two or three Original 6 redesigns that I've liked, and this is definitely one of them. "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..."

ScreamingViking Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 MIN: I think this set is great. The dark forest green really adds the boldness and contrast that is needed. Plus, with a shade that dark, no one is going to think it looks like Christmas.I think yellow/gold might still be needed, if only for the moon on the logo and a slight trim line. But you were right to ditch the wheat. Minnesota needs to be gluten-free.MTL: Decent revival of an old look, but I miss the red yokes on the away jersey, maybe thicken the waist stripes as well. I would lose the white cuffs and white tapered waist on the home jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerGuyJordan Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Love the decision to go with Florida's simplified logo, I've always felt that their primary had a little too much going on. The Minnesota jerseys do feel like they're missing something. I think the Montreal jerseys look great, but the home might benefit from another blue stripe to at the red/white transition at the bottom of the sleeves and torso. Overall, though, great looking series.

Carolingian Steamroller Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Its next to impossible to improve upon the Habs but this as close as it comes. Great job on Minnesota. It looks so fresh and cool without the tan/gold. Putting the emphasis on the primary logo is a great touch and the modern style really works in ways I wouldn't expect.

ieatstaples Posted September 22, 2015 Author Share Posted September 22, 2015 I don't like the cookie-cutter template jersey Nashville currently have. They're original jerseys are very unique, but dated. And let's just try to forget about what they did with the Edge rebrand. The Predators are a modern expansion team and design-wise, that doesn't have to be a bad thing. I really just wanted to simplify things because most of their jerseys have been pretty busy in my opinion. The design is reminiscent of their pre-Edge alternate jersey, and I introduced navy as the primary color once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScreamingViking Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Very good, but I might think of keeping the guitar pick secondary logo on the shoulders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake88 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I love the Preds Set, I'd use their current guitar string numbers though, and the guitar pick shoulder patch would look good as suggested above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCutt Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 As a lifelong Predators fan (I'm only a few years older than they are), I like what you've done. The blue yoke on the white uniforms is a nice touch. I would agree with everyone else, keep the guitar pick on the shoulders and the string numbers, they're both strong elements of the uniforms and the city. I would also suggest that, if you make a third set or an alternate, that you use the short lived roundel logo. It was a look that very well could've made it's way onto a uniform rather than just as the shoulder patch on a one year alternate. Anyways, good job with this! Excited to see what's next I believe in Auburn and love it!                          @RealTCutt                                        Colossians 3:23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerGuyJordan Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 To echo ScreamingViking and Jake88, I would add the pick logo and go with the string numbers. Speaking as a Predators fan, lots, if not most, like the gold home jerseys, it's become a huge part of the team's identity. I'm not opposed to going to Navy for home, but I urge you to consider gold for the away, if you do. Overall, the Nashville set feels like an incomplete, but good, start.

ieatstaples Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 New Jersey is another team who currently have untouchable jerseys so it was a bit tough to come up with ideas without completely spitting in the face of their iconic jerseys. What I came up with is a combination of traditional stripes with a touch of modern elements. I wanted to update the brand a little bit to make it distinguishable from their current look, but nothing too dramatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTConcepts Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 The design is definitely good, but the colors on the back of the home jersey seem a lot darker than the front. "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The back was a slightly different shade of red than the front. I must have been reusing the Calgary concept and accidentally forgot the change the color. Thanks.

OhioSportsMan61 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Awesome update with the Preds, I really love how that home uniform looks.Devils are looking real good, too, good use of modern striping on the arms and yokes mixed with their classic look!

BeerGuyJordan Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 That's a much better look for the Preds. The Devils are one of the few teams that really don't need an update, good showing though.

ieatstaples Posted September 25, 2015 Author Share Posted September 25, 2015 Time for something different. I'll go ahead and say I don't necessarily hate the Isles' new black thirds and I've pulled some inspiration from that jersey. I liked the bold NY logo so I've decided to move forward with it (which I imagine will be a controversial decision). The jersey design itself has the four-stipes-four-Cups design along with a shoulder yoke that is inspired by the 1941-42 Brooklyn Americans. Instead of going BFBS (Black for Brooklyn's Sake) I went with a very dark navy blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 That set looks worlds better than the alternate they released. Fantastic work as usual! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTConcepts Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Woah, that's bad. As an Isles fan, this would be the new Fishsticks. The classic stripes don't mix with the modern yokes, the dark blue is just bad, and the dark logo on the away looks bad too. I'd take the black and make it the current royal blue shade they have, make the logo on the white jersey just an outline, and take out the modern yokes. The base is solid, but it just seems all around bad, as of right now. "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
