Bmac Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 These concepts go with my NHL 2012 project, but I wanted to have a separate thread for this. I have the Winter Classic for the 2 years that my project includes. Everything is based off of what has already been posted in NHL 2012.2012 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic -January 1, 2012Target Field, Minneapolis, MinnesotaLogos:The primary logo features a look at Target Field and downtown Minneapolis. The five stars represent the 5 Winter Classics, this being the 5th. The alternate logo features both team's logos in circles.Uniforms:The Wild's uniforms are inspired by the 1923-1925 Minneapolis Millers uniforms. The Avalanche model a white version of the team's first alternate jerseys.*Before anyone mentions it, the patch on the Avs jersey would be located to the player's right of the C or A.2013 WC will be posted later. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHL1016 Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Nice concept, but if it's not in New York or featuring the Rangers, I'll lose max respect for the NHL. [Coloring History Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted December 1, 2010 Author Share Posted December 1, 2010 Ah, the Rangers host it in 2013 in this concept. Stay tuned! I will post it later. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianVlietDesign Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 While Minnesota looks fantastic, if the Avs did a Winter Classic I could see them going for more of a Nordqiues still set with the new colors. THAT would looks awesome. Like I said, though great job on Minnesota. I just think the Avs set needs a bit of reworking.

ctk Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 if the avs are going to be in the winter classic, i see them using the design of either their first or second cup teams (and for those who don't know, there are slight differences between the two) rather than something they haven't worn.either way, it would be a vast improvement of what they are using now.as for the adverbs (sorry avs fan here) i wouldn't have gone with that version of the M. i think on that design the M that you based the design on works a lot better.

In that project, the home and road jerseys are similar to the team's original jerseys.I think it's kind of dumb that neither are using their former identity's jerseys.The Wild don't have a former identity. The North Stars belong to the Dallas Stars. As for the Avs, I am working on an update that is inspired by the Nordiques. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knnhrvy16 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 Great work! Totally love the Winter Classic primary logo, that's exactly how i'd want a Minnesota host logo to look. Great work on that. And by this, I'm not saying that either uniform is bad because I really do like them both as well (I'd buy that Wild sweater, it's fantastic), but have you ever thought to do an old Rockies inspired set for the Avs? I don't know if the Devils still own the rights to the Rockies' identity, but me personally, I'd love to see the Avs roll out an old Rockies set if they ever played in the classic. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

north dakota Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 I love the Minnesota Wild jersey but the Colorado one needs work because because it doesn't look that "vintage". Maybe you should put the old Rockies logo into the current Avs colors and then it would look great. Woah! You think I'm Cody? My name is Carl Scott Simone and we just happen to share a birthday. BIG DEAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyRock Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 I hear people calling for the Rockies and North Stars, and I hear it, but I'm gonna base my comments just on what you made.I love Minnesota's. I do think that tan pants with a green star would make it look even more like a throwback.I'm on board with Colorado. I think if you're trying to keep it with the Avalanche identity, this is a good way to go although I think ctk makes a good point that the Avs have championship history to throw back too. Nice work overall, one note on your WC primary is that the NHL doesn't recolor the shield for it, even from silver to white.

tigerslionspistonshabs Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 I think that any logo having to do with Minnesota should have some sort of forestry in it. Maybe a pine tree or two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lich0037 Posted December 2, 2010 Share Posted December 2, 2010 I really, really like the Winter Classic logo. Although a part of me thinks it should have few more neutral colors. By neutral I mean not branded by Wild colors. Maybe a dark blue, avalanche blue or <gasp> black? Just a thought. I also like the nod to the old Millers jersey. I would buy up a few those for sure. I'm probably in the minority that actually like the Colorado jersey. Perhaps you could add the Nordiques colors?...that way you have Colorado Rockies (the spelling of Colorado) and Nordiques covered in one jersey. Nice work! Can't wait to see the other concepts.

ReRocky4228 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Very cool, but I know from people in the know that Target Field would never be the host for a Winter Classic. If the Wild get one it will have to be at TCF Bank Stadium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted December 3, 2010 Author Share Posted December 3, 2010 I'm gonna go ahead and post my 2013 concept now. I have been working on another Avs jersey, but it doesn't look very good yet.2013 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic -January 1, 2013Yankee Stadium, New York, New YorkLogos:The primary logo is supposed to give the feel of Yankee Stadium in winter. The alternate logo once again features the two logos in circles.Uniforms:The Rangers' uniforms are based off of their 1946-1947 uniforms. The Bruins are based off of their 1934-1936 uniforms. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raysox Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 To avoid repetition, I would do the Devils on the last set. Both look really good though. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
