Anaheim Ducks concept (By: Matt M.)

Matt Marczel's work is always great, and this is no exception. Matt brings back the "Mighty Duck" look but "modernizes" it. I love how you can still see a little bit of the Ducks current jerseys with how the stripes on the hem come to a "point". The logo choices are awesome, and I love the current font. As always from Matt, execution is pretty much perfect. Love it. 9/10

Union ECAC concept (By: Bobby P.)

Bobby has two College hockey concepts for us today, and we start off with Union. I like the diagonal stripes and the simplicity of the jerseys. The yoke also looks good on the white jersey. That logo is also pretty sweet. Pretty basic concept here, not much too say. 7.5/10

Dinamo Riga KHL concept (By: Stephen T.)

Hey, a KHL concept! Haha, anyway I love the striping here. This is certainly better than what they currently wear. I love the how the logo is between the stripes, as well. Great job here, Stephen. 7.5/10

Minnesota Wild concept (By: Mike S.)

Here Mike gives us a rather unique Wild concept. I like the Stars on the stripes and how they might resemble the "North Stars" just a tad. One thing I don't like is the pant stripes, they look odd, just get rid of them. Awesome creativity here. Love the logos and font too. Great execution. 8/10

Washington Capitals concept (By: Jets96)

Jets flashes us all back to 1995-2007 when the Capitals wore blue, black, and gold. I'd be lying if I didn't say this looks A LOT like the Sharks jerseys. But, I think it works. I love how the striping just fits the jersey. The NYR type pant striping is cool as well. Also, that font is just awesome. Great execution as always from Jets96. 8.5/10

Pittsburgh Penguins concept (By: Darren H.)

Darren brings back "Athletic Gold" for the Penguins and many people would definitely like that move. I love the striping which looks like the striping on the jerseys from 2002-2007. I love the logo choices with the circle logo on the shoulders. Also, that's one cool alternate, I love the gradients there and the robo-penguin on the shoulders! One thing, where is the NHL logo on the collar inserts? Those need to be added. Anyway, great job here, Darren. 8/10

Quinnipiac ECAC concept (By: Bobby P.)

Bobby's second and final college concept of the day, he brings us Quinnipiac, who by the way is playing it's Frozen Four game today. They currently have blue and yellow Maple Leafs type uniforms, and these are cool. Once again, very straight up, simple, and classic. I think this reminds me a lot of Sweden's uniforms, anybody else? No complaints from me. Great job, Bobby. 8.5/10

NBHS Golden Hurricanes concept (By: Scott M.)

New Britain High School is Scott's alma mater, and apparently they don't have a hockey team (as it says in the photo). That's kind of sad considering they could have awesome uniforms like these. The "name-over-number" on the front works here, in my opinion. The sublimated squares in the stripes are just awesome. The bruins yoke is cool as well. Everything here is just great. That "NB" logo is awesome too. Nothing bad from me. Phenomenal job here, Scott. 9.5/10 and a COTW nom from me

Thanks for reading, have a good Friday everyone!
