AHL Redesign: Monsters & IceCaps


Hey! Hey! Hey! Sorry for the lack of updates. My computer has been giving me some issues that prevented me from doing concepts in a timely fashion. Anyway, let's get to the next two teams in my AHL Redesin!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Monsters are the AHL affiliate of the Colorado Avalanche but have no resemblance to them, which is a good thing. But they wear Reebok "cookie cutter" uniforms. Here I went away from the cookie cutter look but also kept the uniforms somewhat the same. I did add hem stripes which make the uniforms look more complete.
The Monsters also have a new shoulder patch on their jerseys. Only thing is that I could not find it on any logo site. If anyone can help me locate where I can find it I will update the concept.

EDIT
I should have made clear that I am looking for a computer rendering of the patch. I'm horrible at trying to recreate logos so I want to try to avoid redrawing it if possible!

I believe that the IceCaps currently have one of the best looks in the AHL, even if they wear Winnipeg Jets jerseys. Which look good in their own right, don't get me wrong. But I took the double stripe element from their current set and made these based on those stripes.

That's it for today!

AHL Redesign: Pirates, Sharks And Wolf Pack Jersey Reveal


What's happening guys?

Last night the Hartford Wolf Pack held a team meet and greet for their full and partial season ticket holders. All players were in attendance except J.T. Miller and Cam Talbot. We were told that they were suffering from a bug that was going around the locker room but were in fact on their way to New York to join the Rangers. The big clue was that Miller's equipment was absent from his locker during locker room tours. Anyway, during the event, the Wolf Pack unveiled a new third jesrey that will be worn on various nights this season.

 
Here is a photo i took at the event. At first glance we notice that it's red! The last time the Wolf Pack wore a red uniform was during their fifth anniversary season in 2002. All in all, this jersey looks to be a red version of their current home & road uniforms.

Here is a cleaner mockup I posted on twitter last night:

All I did for the Pirates was add hem stripes. Otherwise, the uniforms are exactly the same.

The Worcester Sharks currently wear the jerseys the San Jose Sharks wore before their redesign this off season. Here, I removed the orange and the shoulder yoke to give them a cleaner look. Something San Jose should have done.

That's if for today!

AHL Redesign: Icehogs & Marlies


Hey guys! Here are the next two entries into my AHL redesign!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Currently, the Icehogs wear Blackhawks jerseys. Here, I kept the white jersey the same but added collar laces and promoted their alternate with collar laces added. I also removed the blue from the logo.

Last season, the Marlies introduced a throwback uniform to the old Toronto Malboros. Here, I used their primary logo on that set and made a matching dark uniform.

That's it for today!
