spyboy1 Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Perhaps you remember my Senators Fantasy Alternate Barberpole jersey.I have a chance to make a new Fantasy Alternate now. Thanks to OMMF, I found out about a blank Whalers style jersey, complete with a tie neck from icejerseys.com.I can get various patches for the jersey, but don't know exactly which ones to use for the shoulders.Here is a photoshopped jersey with an "H" initial logo on the left and a classic "Pucky the Whale" on the right.I could possibly just go with small versions of the main crest, but that seems a bit redundant and boring.Which do you prefer, the "H" or "Pucky"?Also, I can get the main crest with or without the outer blue trim, but personally perfer the blue trimmed one. The blue trim was actually used on the white jerseys, while the blue era jereseys used to have the silver background sewn right onto the jersey without any contrasting trim.Also, what name and number to go with? Gordie Howe #9. Ron Francis #10. Paul Coffey #77. Kevin Dineen #11. Dave Keon #14. Geoff Sanderson #8. Pat Verbeek #16. Oh, the possibilities...JeffB Click here to read Third String Goalie - The Hockey Jersey of the Day Blog Click here to see my hockey and baseball jersey collection online ?You don?t like to see 20 kids punching 20 other kids.

slapshot Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 I've never seen that secondary "H-Whalers" logo before. Seems a bit redundant, doesn't it?Go with Pucky. And Dineen #11 or Francis #10.

Jezus_Ghoti Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 I am gonna second Pucky and Francis. It seems pretty lame to have your entire primary logo encompassed in your secondary logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shumway Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Pucky and Verbeek, just because he was so slow in NHL 96, the game that I scored 39 goals in one game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J23P Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 FINALLY i see an alternate of the WHALE! i was a huge whalers fan growing up and my heart has been broken ever since. i hardly watch hockey because of what karmanos did to us in the state of CT. i have actually been thinking of an idea but i do not have the resources as you all do. here is my idea: if you were to still use the current home and away as a reference and still have it as your primary uniforms. take the new logo and just make it white like it use to be previous to the blue ones. so you would basically have the outline of the logo, the the tail and the "w" in white, and the letter "h" in green. for the shoulders, bring back pucky the whale and definitely keep the ties under the neck. try that one as well and post it and see what people leave for feedback. either one, they look sharp!

nwtrailtrekker Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 i think pucky should be on the crest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francis10 Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Puckie, but you've got to put the version on with "ers" under the tail. And Francis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyboy1 Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 Puckie, but you've got to put the version on with "ers" under the tail. And Francis. When I saw Francis10 had replied to this post, I thought "Hmmm. Wonder what name and number he's going to vote for? "I was originally leaning towards Gordie Howe, but Francis fits the era of jersey with silver trim better. But.... Francis' last year in Hartford was 90-91, before the silver trim was ever used.Pucky sure is the clear favorite, but I did like trying the "H" logo as a secondary.Now Pucky for the main crest. Hmmmm...interesting idea. Could put the H-tail main logo on the shoulders then. I have to go mock this up and see how she looks... Thanks for the input.

spyboy1 Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 It would require going to the trouble and expense of getting the main crest custom made, but it could be worth it, unless of course it's too "cute" or "too obscure" a logo to carry off being the main crest.JeffBPS - Gordie - great sig!

Andy Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 I think the H-tail main logo looked better as the main crest. Pucky should stay on the shoulders. Pucky just doesn't seem like a great logo to use as the main crest, too much white and not enough detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frenchie Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Pucky and Dineen. Wouldn't expect anything else the Dineen from an Ottawa native...I have to agree with Gordie here: Pucky and Dineen...EDIT: What? HockeyDB has Kevin as a Quebec City native? I thought the Dineens were huge in the Ottawa region??? @Frenchie_TO Owner of the Rochester Americans of the MLH Owner of the Toronto Frenchies of the GCFHL6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
