WOW that is sooo cool!!! Its so old school (ie the old school orange and the classic design) but its really modern at the same time (ie the two modern shades of blue). Great photoshop work!! I have never seen a real picture turned into a concept this great. Awesome job!

Hey, thanks for the feedback.

Sadly, I think the Oilers current unis are one of the poorest in the league but have so much potential. They used to look so great back in the day and in my opinion, have progressively gotten worse over the years. My attempt was to design a modern looking uniform based on the vintage Oilers orange and blue colours. I used elements form the early 70's WHA jersey, the familiar 80's version and the uniform of the Oilers current farm team, the Springfield Falcon's.

I read on this board that the team might be sporting the vintage threads as third jerseys next year. If it means possibly seeing the current home jerseys 41 less times a year, I'm a happy camper.

Love the design and the presentation, but I'm not so hot on orange as the primary home colour. It might look good on paper ? like the Nashville mustard-yellow alts or the rumoured gold Sens ? but I don't know how it would look on the ice.

I love the two-toned blue with the orange. I agree that the orange jersey may not look great on the ice. Also, when I see these colors, I think more of the Islanders than the Oilers. I think its more of a oceany scheme, while I think of the Oilers in bolder, stronger colors.

Ehh, bit of a stretch maybe. I still absolutely love the idea and think the concept is beautiful.

that is miles above the junk they wear now. this is probably one of the best visual concepts i've seen in a long time. it really gives us a really good visual as to how it would look on a player than on a 2-d flat template on a white background.

His point is that its a picture of an ocean with an oil rig...and comparing it to the concept, that its a stretch to say that the concept has an "oceany scheme".
