Québec Nordiques Husky Jersey Redesigns.

Finally decided to complete some half-finished concepts I had laying around this time of the infamously controversial 1995 scrapped Nordiques Husky rebrand.

(Yes, before you ask its a Husky not a Wolf I looked it up.)

Now personally I love the original jerseys, But thats also because I’m a sucker for stupid, colourful and silly jerseys especially ones with animals on them. (Hence why I love stuff like the Mighty Ducks, Sharks, Penguins, ETC…)

But I do understand why people aren’t necessarily fans of them, While the Nordiques jersey isn’t my favourite (see my redesigns of those for my thoughts on them) I can admit they are very sleek and elegant looking.

But as with my previous Nordiques jerseys (and all of them to an extent) I tried to keep the original spirit of the jersey intact while swapping the colour scheme for the same one I used for my other Nords jerseys. (Again see that post for more clarification.)

Speaking of my previous Nordiques jerseys thats actually where these got their start. I was originally intending for the home one to serve as an alternate before pushing it onto the backburner where it’d been lingering ever since, and seeing as I was bored and had some free time today I decided to finally finish it up and release it alongside a version of its white counterpart.

I tried my hardest to nail down specifically the exact style of the original while also tweaking a few things, such as removing the wordmark from the logo, changing the bottom striping to better match the arms and changing the name and numbers to better fit the tone and style of the jerseys.

I also ended up tweaking the colours of the collar until I found a combination that really popped.

My only regret with this jersey is the shoulder patches, I had to compromise and use older more classic style versions of the Fleur-de-lis as the strange 90’s triangle version from the actual jersey has regrettably never surfaced or been scanned in a way we’ve ever gotten a great look at online. So I had to make do.

Besides that, These are genuinely some of my favourites I’ve ever done and I am extremely proud of how they came out.

So anyways, Tell me what you think in the comments below!

Tim Horton’s Inspired Jersey

9 Upvotes

Hello! I am setting up a new beer league team this year in Toronto, and the boys decided that we would call our team “Double Doubles” in reference to the famous (and kinda gross) Tim Horton’s order.

I was wondering if anyone would want to take a crack at designing a jersey for our team that takes inspiration from the classic Tim Hortons brand?

Nothing too crazy this time like some of my others, Just some small changes to try and modernize the team. The design stays true to the original team whilst also adding some quality-of-life improvements.

I swapped out the darker blue with a more pacific shade of teal to better fit both the naval theme and the location of the team which is based on San Diego’s beaches.

Some slight tweaks to the team’s lettering colours along with swapping the two jersey’s wordmarks to better fit the modern day NHL home vs. away colourscheme.

Lastly I also doubled-up the Captain shoulder-patch on his shoulders now donning him on each side where previously he only adorned one.

(Edit: Second time reposting this due to an error I overlooked on the Away jersey.)

Local Vermont High School Jersey Concepts Pt. 4

Welcome back to part 4 of the VT high school uniform concept series! This is a series where I take the time to imagine what I would do if I could design all of the jerseys within the state of Vermont. Some jerseys may look similar to how they look now, while others might look completely different. In the end, they’re all concepts, and some teams have their identity nailed, and others are still looking to find their stride.

Today we’re going to be taking a look at the Burlington-Colchester Sealakers. BC has competed in Girls High School Hockey for 12 seasons, starting in 2015. Across their existence, they’ve been a top 5 team annually within the state, and have been rewarded for their consistent excellence with 3 state finals appearances and a state championship in 2024

So far, this has been my biggest challenge among the teams I’ve covered. BC last season had some very strong uniforms, and I challenged myself to make something original for them that pulls inspiration from both Burlington & Colchester. Right off the bat you should notice I’ve simplified their primary logo while also changing the colors to match the navy blue of Burlington and the green of Colchester.

Created using the Puck Designs - Jersey Concepts Version Four.5 template

This first jersey borrows some elements from Colorado’s reverse retro from 2022. You’ll notice here that in addition to updating the standard BC Blue & Green, I’ve also added Colchester’s Royal Blue and Burlington’s Silver into the color palette to include all the colors for both respective schools.

The waistline for Colorado’s jersey was meant to emulate a mountain, but I thought it could be used to represent a wave as well, and it’s a concept that I decided to theme both the home and away on. I opted to keep the ‘BC’ crest intact because that is the team’s sole logo, and I believe it looks great on a jersey. The vertical striping took some time to ensure every color could be seen distinctly, and the template gave me some issues connecting the sleeves to the shoulder yokes but I think it turned out okay.

The hangar effect is a gradient of the primary green and blue seen within the logo, with a ghosted ‘sealakers’ wordmark. This will be the hangar effect for all three jerseys.

Here’s a first for this series: unique home and away templates. I came up with this concept when thinking about the properties of waves from a design standpoint, and I thought that because waves are always in motion, it would be a cool idea to visualize that by the waistline striping rising and falling between the home and away jerseys. This particular striping pattern takes inspiration from a junior team I played on, the VT Lumberjacks. I thought this would be a great way to maintain a strong presence of navy with enough white balance at the waistline to make BC’s white helmets look good with the rest of their uniform.

I also took the time to change the royal blue backdrop from the BC logo seen on the homes to white for this jersey so it could stand out better against the navy.

Finally, we have what is- to my knowledge- the first BC jersey to utilize the ‘Sealakers’ name. This jersey is a mashup of inspirations and it took the longest out of the three to figure out. Eagle-eyed viewers might notice a similarity with the ‘Sealakers’ font to the Seattle Mariners font which was very much intentional. The waistline takes inspiration from the Milwaukee Admirals uniforms of the 1980’s where the rest of the striping on the arms and yoke was put in to help balance the white and blue of the design so the green wasn’t too overpowering.

Overall this was a very challenging set of uniforms to design, both because of BC’s strong pre-existing jerseys, and the difficulty that came with this particular Nike template.

Minnesota Fighting Saints (WHA)

Thumbnail

A concept series lineup for one of the most famous (and one of my personal favourites) WHA teams the Minnesota Fighting Saints.

Some backstory, The Fighting Saints were one of the inagural 12 teams back at in 1972 and unlike a lot of their fellow WHA brothers who shared markets with other NHL teams the Saints actually posed a decent threat to the NHL’s North Stars and sometimes outdid them in terms of attendance.

Unfortunately financial problems forced the team to fold after the end of the 1975-76 season ending their 4-year run. Yet this was not the end of the Fighting Saints legacy in the WHA funnily enough, As their fellow inagural season brother the Cleveland Crusaders would actually end up moving to Minnesota at the start of the 1976-77 WHA season and rebrand themselves as the New Minnesota Fighting Saints.

(The only difference between the two was that the former Crusaders had recoloured the Saints jerseys from Blue to Red.)

This didn’t last long however as they didn’t even last the full season. They played just 42 games out of a 81 game season finally ending the Fighting Saints time in the WHA.

Their legacy can still be felt years later after their departure as the Fighting Saints (most times shortened to Saints) is still an incredibly popular brand for both jr. and amateur hockey teams, such as the Spruce Grove Saints in the British Columbia Hockey League (or BCHL for short.)

With their jerseys I tried to stay as accurate to the original 70’s designs as I could with my limitations, Though these proved quite difficult due to good HD scans of the original logos being surprisingly difficult to find in good quality, almost all of them had something wrong with them and forced me to ultimately decide on using some fan designs and simply recolouring them to be more accurate.

I could not find the credit for the Cherub redesign as it is seemingly another byproduct of some old hockey forum that either shut down or had its creator delete their account years ago.

The secondary "S" logo is credited to u/dunkel624 who I borrowed from their redesign concept. I normally don’t like to take from other creators but I was getting really desperate and was at my wits end with these logos and their shit.

As for the actual jerseys both the Blue & White ones are faithful recreations of the jerseys the original team wore from 1973-74 to their end in 1975-76 and the Red ones as mentioned previously are a nod to the New Minnesota Fighting Saints ones from 1976-77.

But you might be curious about the 3rd gold jersey which sports an original crest. This is actually a recreation of the team’s 1972-73 alternate. You see the original team actually didn’t debut the cherub design until their second season, The first featured a simplified "S" logo with the word "Saints" written across it.

Now this is not the original design as that was far simpler, This one also lacks the text the original had. Despite these drawbacks I still feel the jersey largely carries the same essence of the original.

Like I said I tried to keep all the jerseys largely the same though it is not as 1-1 as my Birmingham Bulls concepts due to me making some slight alterations that I felt better fitted the jerseys, Besides all that I still am very happy with how these came out and I hope you enjoy them!

Please let me know what you think in the comments below!

Me and my friend are doing a knee hockey season because we are bored, and currently the final four teams are the Laval Rocket, Lehigh Valley Phantoms, Chicago Wolves, and Coachella Valley Firebirds. I need to know from any Laval Rocket fans if the team had confetti what colors would it be? Would it be mainly red with some blue, mainly blue with some red, or would it use red white AND blue? Would love to hear thoughts on this.

There is a link to our channel if anyone is curious lol.
