Kirill_The_Thrill97 Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Event Logo: Uniforms: The Wild take heavy inspiration from the Vikings, with the team's UCLA shoulder stripes from their 1990s away uniforms, and putting a jersey number on the front instead of a crest. The Blackhawks uniforms are inspired by their traditional home uniforms, with black and red switched and the arm stripes made larger. The C logo is taken from the team's shoulder patches as a nod to the Bears. The Blackhawks jerseys have the player's number inside the C logo. The CHI wordmark on the arms is also a nod to the Bears' GSH logo on their sleeves. Both teams feature oversized helmet logos, taken from football design. Team Logos: Game Ice Design: Broadcast Graphic: The game's broadcast graphic is based off 80s and 90s NFL design. The game's broadcast will use retro NHL and TNT logos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcrosby Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 If you're going Vikings with the Wild you should probably go Bears with the Hawks. 2 Quote https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were right, this is much better. It feels like the orange and blue was the original and the black/red/yellow was a recolor of it, instead of the other way around. Also makes it so the hawks, wild, and the game doesn't feature yellow. That way theres not an over use of yellow. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though the franchises don't share a common ownership, I'm sure that the Blackhawks would have GSH on one of the sleeves as a tribute.

MilSox Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Not to take away from your work, but Wild-Hawks would go over like a fart in church at Lambeau. Especially if they did Vikings-Bears cosplay. There's no way an NHL game could happen in Green Bay without the Detroit Red Wings. The basic rule of thumb with Wisconsin NHL fandom is "What border are you closest to?" So Western Wisconsin tends to go for the Wild. The I-94 corridor (Metro Milwaukee, on down through Kenosha) is Blackhawks country. Except for the smattering of Admirals loyalists who root for the Predators. Green Bay/Northeast Wisconsin is full of transplants from Upper Michigan. So much so that Red Wings games were shown on Green Bay television back in the day. My grandparents lived just south of there when I was growing up and I got to see the Russian Five because of it. In other words. Hawks-Wings at Lambeau probably would work. Wild-Wings probably would too. But Hawks-Wild definitely would not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
