djones3333 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Earlier today, I came up with the idea of the jersey swap. I included all 30 NHL teams and randomly sorted them into pairs. The pairs came out looking like this:Bruins SabresSenators FlyersSharks LeafsPenguins JetsStars BlackhawksCanadiens PanthersLightning KingsAvalanche IslandersWild DucksRangers FlamesBlue Jackets BluesHurricanes DevilsCapitals PredatorsOilers Red WingsCanucks CoyotesWhat I am going to do is take the home uniforms from each pair and swap them. Then, of course, I will change the logos, colors, etc. Also, I will be the first to admit that some of them may look strange or even ugly.First pair: Buffalo Sabres --- Boston BruinsSenators and Flyers next!

RedSox44 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 Cool idea. It's basically a swap on my opinions of the actual jerseys: the Sabres look nice, the Bruins look horrible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djones3333 Posted April 13, 2012 Author Share Posted April 13, 2012 Cool idea.

BigBubba Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 This is a cool idea for a series. I think Oil-Wings and Wild-Ducks will look interesting. Buffalo looks great and Boston looks terrible (just shows truly how awful the Sabres template is...yuck). Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.

sportstar1212 Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 It's been said twice but the Sabres look great but the Bruins look terrible.I also can't wait to see Lightning-Kings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djones3333 Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Pair 2: Philadelphia Flyers --- Ottawa SenatorsMy take: Philadelphia doesn't look too awful too me. However, I don't think the Sens look too good.Next pair: Sharks and Maple Leafs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djones3333 Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Pair 3: Toronto Maple Leafs --- San Jose SharksMy Take: I think the Leafs one would look a lot better if the collar would be different. I think the Sharks one is pretty good looking.Next up, Pens and Jets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Aware Eagle Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I actually really like that look for the Leafs. Yes, I root for teams all over the place. And I apparently favor birds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9erShark Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Not trying to be picky, but there are no sleeve numbers on the back view of the Sens and Sharks. Otherwise I'm liking the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 yes! the stars are going to look great, finally. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBubba Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 In each set there is a hit and a big miss. For Phi-Ott it's the Sens and Flyers, respectively; for Tor-SJ, it's the Sharks and the Leafs, respectively (though SJ's front logo could be a bit bigger). Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djones3333 Posted April 14, 2012 Author Share Posted April 14, 2012 Pair 4: Pittsburgh Penguins --- Winnipeg JetsMy take: I'm not a huge fan of either of these. The Pens one has an odd look to it. However, I think the Jets looks so-so, not too bad or not too good. The logo on the Jets set was sort of an experiment, I guess you could say. Tell me what you think about that logo.

Raymie Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Intriguing series. It's sorta like the Alternate Universe NFL project except more contained and easier to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djones3333 Posted April 15, 2012 Author Share Posted April 15, 2012 Pair 5: Dallas Stars --- Chicago BlackhawksMy take: Neither of these seem any good to me. If I had to choose one that was best I would go with the Stars set.Next up: Canadiens and Panthers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Pair 5: Dallas Stars --- Chicago BlackhawksMy take: Neither of these seem any good to me. If I had to choose one that was best I would go with the Stars set.Next up: Canadiens and Panthers.I thought you would have put the Stars' logo back on the front of theirs and done the collegiate wordmark-plus-number on the front of the Hawks' set.

sportstar1212 Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 If the black in the Dallas one were replaced with green, it would probably be the nicest looking jersey ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stampman Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 I thought you would have put the Stars' logo back on the front of theirs and done the collegiate wordmark-plus-number on the front of the Hawks' set.That's how I thought you would swicth them.the ones you did are cool, but this way of switching would be cool too.
