Islanders and Sabres sets

I'll be real with you guys, I've been a bit lacking in inspiration for the last couple months....but I think that'll end here.  My own laziness couldn't stop me...and PC issues could only stop me briefly :hockeysmiley:  I give you the Isles!  The main thing I set out to do here was bring back the four stripes and incorporate them into the sleeve and hem stripes.

The alt...I'd initially intended for the Islanders script to be larger.  The way I wound up leaving things, though, I felt the stripes superseded any need for a crest.  Kinda like the Canucks' flying V.

The home/away are pretty cool, out there, but cool. I think the alt. Is a little too out there though therefore I can't see it as an actual isles jersey. I wonder how these would look on the edge template with the horizontal stripes and all. It's a pretty cool thought, but it feels dated.

Keep wondering.  I don't see myself using an edge temp anytime soon, mainly because edge ruined the Avs' jerseys.  I'm still mad about that.

I think if you left the pattern on the arms it'd look great. Make the hem stripe match that of the socks and it's golden!

I'll think about it.

I see where you're going with this, I really like the stripes. Does it look good on paper? Yes! Would it work in reality? No.

Hey, you never know...MUCH stranger striping has seen NHL action.

Wow, I hate it, but I love it. The home/away striping seems a bit big, and if you squished it to be flatter it'd look better. The alternate is just crazy. Same thing, but I like it less than the home and away.

 

Any chance we'll get that awesome template?

True.. The Canucks V jerseys of the late 70s/early 80s come to mind.

I had more in mind the Isles' fishstick jerseys, that podium stripe the Flames had in the mid 90s, the Quebec Rafales, or a number of the Bruins' early sweaters (hell, you could throw in the 96 WC) when I was thinking of stranger striping.

It's about 10 days late, give or take, but here you go

And because I don't feel like making a new thread and will simply rename this one, the Sabres!  Decided to throw in the only part most liked about the recent, short-lived thirds (the captaincy patches) and use curved stripes along with a yoke, the likes of which I don't think I've seen in reality.

Complete with weird third jersey...with its own variant of the captaincy patches

THIS! Great job, It's traditional and new at the same time. 10/10

Islanders update looks really good.  Proof you can have a fresh, non-conventional design that still manages to be effective.  I'd love to see the dark version used as an alternate with the current set.  Blows the current Black & White atrocity out of the water.

That updated Islanders concept is perfect, it's unique but not too crazy.

 

I also like the Sabres curved stripes and I'm intrigued by the yoke design, but I think the yoke is a bit too busy as is with the stripes, logos, and the wordmark next to the collar.

Man...I must have a thing for doing things 10 days at a time or something...anyway, the Sabres have been tweaked.  The home and away are a bit less busy...

...and the alternate's vintage white was lightened so it actually looks whitish this time.

That Buffalo alternate is a love/hate relationship for me. If it were real, I'd buy it but never wear it. Never tell anyone I owned it but secretly look at it in the closet every night.

No No No on the alternate

 

and the Home needs the two outside stripes white it gives it more balance

 

Such rich history you could chose from to create an alternate... I'm really really sorry but as a Buffalo guy this is worse than the buffa-slug, and the goat head, and and the past alternate.
