Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day, which is most often associated with the colour green. But don’t forget what all those drunk leprechauns are (theoretically) searching for as they stumble the streets of their respective cities (other than their lucky charms) – that elusive pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Plus, we did the green jersey thing last […]
It’s that time of the year again…the annual Stadium Series featuring 4 games 2 games 1 game this Saturday (February 25) with the Battle of PA between the Penguins and Flyers at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. So, it’s time to do our annual countdown of the all the Stadium Series jerseys in existence. With two new additions this year, we’re up to 15 […]
With the announcement yesterday that Vincent Lecavalier – at one time not so long ago considered one of the biggest stars in the league – is officially hanging up his skates after a somewhat resurgent half-season with the Kings, what better way for us to pay tribute than by ranking the best jerseys he wore over […]
We’re down to the final two teams in the last (meaningful) NHL match-up until October (not counting the World Cup of Hockey). How’d it go in the Conference Finals? 1-for-2. That brings this year’s total to 8-for-14 (after going 3-for-8 in the first round and 4-for-4 in the second round). We’re guaranteed an over .500 finish. Yay […]
With the third annual Stadium Series officially starting their 2016 on February 21, when the Minnesota Wild take on the Chicago Blackhawks at TCF Bank Stadium, it’s high time we do what we love to do here at Hockey By Design: count things down. With four new additions to 2014–15 library of 9 jerseys, where do the Wild, ‘Hawks, […]
Last week, the San Jose Sharks announced what they’ll be wearing at the Stadium Series game in February. Today, we got the officially official announcement from the LA Kings. Everything seems to be have confirmed the various leaks that came out for both teams’ uniforms over the last week or so, so we’ve had some time to […]
Seeing as how the shins are about 10% up the human body, it’s accurate to say that we’re now shins-deep into the new 2014-15 NHL season. Sure, “shins-deep” is a little (if ever) used expression but it’s definitely more accurate. Knees-deep is too deep. Balls-deep is just uncouth for this site. We’re not in over our heads either. Not even close. […]
This morning, both the LA Kings and Anaheim Ducks unveiled the jerseys they’ll be wearing for the upcoming Stadium Series game at Dodger Stadium on January 25, 2014. The nice thing about having these sort of one-off games, and having jerseys for them, is that you know exactly what your opponent will be wearing and can plan […]
The distinction of having the third worst team logo in the NHL goes to the LA Kings. The Kings would be much higher up the list if they hadn’t changed their official logo from last season to the current one. They switch it up over the summer by pulling the reverse-Starbucks: instead of taking a detail-oriented logo […]
