Chewbacca Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 I apologize in advance if this seems a little bit random but there is something that I have been wanting to ask for a while. I have been sending concepts to Icethetics for over two years and in that time, after sending many concepts, I have only been featured once. I was wondering if there is anyone else who is in the same situation as me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took me half a year to have one posted on the concepts page, and now I'm the most featured artist of 2016 on Icethetics.

I think I will definitely consider doing that because I think that waiting as long as I have is getting to be a little much. I spent a lot of time making my concepts and so far, I feel like all my hard work has been for nothing. Thanks for the advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurdBranding Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 23 hours ago, BeerGuyJordan said: Arizona, Florida and Carolina all belong on the list, but there are differences in the reasoning. Arizona, for instance. I think they are a market that could have work. The fact that they haven't, for so long, means it's time to pull the plug. They've been consistently mismanaged, including the Glendale move. Moving your hockey team to the outskirts, in a non-traditional market, is a bad call. I think that Florida only solidifies that. Agree with you on Arizona and their Glendale situation. If they moved the team towards downtown Phoenix there is so much opportunity considering the largest populated college in the nation is located about 10 minutes away.

bowld Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 Just played the NHL 17 beta for a while. They have a pretty amazing team creator this year that let's you take current and retro logos and recolor them to your liking. Arena and Jersey options are pretty in depth as well. Also, now that I have seen the new Panthers unis a few times I have come full circle. They look amazing! Especially the whites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockey week Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 We haven't argued about the Mighty Ducks being too cartoony for a few days, so I'm going to introduce Exhibit 537: Anaheim's Opening Night ceremony and trainwreck, featuring the dancing candlestick from Beauty and the Beast, the best duck-related animation I've seen, a Be Our Guest parody that should be the mandatory goal song now, a rock song about the Ducks that's almost as bad, and Ron Tugnutt. I sincerely hope that the first game for Las Vegas will be less embarrassing than this. I'll respect any opinion that you can defend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He told me that Johnny Canuck can be used as a primary logo option for the Canucks jersey and it can be placed at centre ice as well. I want to see that!

NYYNYR Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Since it's August in hockeyland and news is hard to come by, I thought I would just chime in with this random bit of Brian Burke Aesthetics Strikes Again. I was watching a feature on Tkachuk's son (Matthew?) being drafted by the Flames. A camera crew followed him around on draft day to capture what that whirlwind of a day is like for 18-year-old kids. It became a running joke throughout the 5-minute clip they showed on the NHL Network how Tkachuk would show off his new Flames duds (Dad loved the sweater ) but comment that he was not wearing a Flames hat on purpose. And the reason: Brian Burke does not like draft hats !!! They then showed Tkachuk in the luxury suite with the Flames brass and Burke must have said 3 times that "Hats are for baseball players, son !" So, any Brian Burke-led franchise -- in case you were wondering, ha ! -- will never welcome a new player with a hat. Who knows...maybe they don't even do it in post-games. I'm not enough of a Flames supporter to know. Random, I know, but it seems more topical than half the stuff that's bandied about during the summer.

To be honest, I'd be a little pissed if I didn't get a hat, when I'm () drafted, because I love wearing baseball caps, and have always imagined throwing on the jersey AND hat and getting my picture taken. (I also wear a hat all of the time, and it would be a good excuse for wearing a hat at a more formal-like event...)

wildwing64 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 "Hats are for baseball players" I don't want to hear that from the berk who rebranded one of his teams away from a perfectly good hockey logo to a baseball script.

Kevin W. Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 So it's Jets throwback vs. Oilers alternate for the Heritage Classic. I like it.

Delicate Genius Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 For the Alumni game the Oilers will wear the current homes and the Jets are wearing the 1979-90 whites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroCree Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 so it's just their Orange uniforms from last year. Are they sticking around as permanent alternatives or it's only for the Heritage Classic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Jets uniforms. Looks like the whites from 1975-1976. Can't say for sure without seeing the pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
