Portfolio NHL Winter Classics by RA

[Rubber Arm]

Decided to have a go at a portfolio for some NHL jerseys.
I never finish portfolios, but I'm well prepared this time so it should be smooth sailing.

Welcome to my Winter Classic portfolio!
Although it ruins the whole idea of the Winter Classic, we'll pretend that this time around, the NHL has decided that every team will play in a Winter Classic this year instead of just 2 teams.

Some teams might be direct throwback designs, and some teams might be a mixture of different eras in one design.

​

I put every team on a spinning wheel to decide who would match up with whom.
Here's the results:


Just for a bit of extra fun, I'm including the stadium that the game would be played.
I'll aim at posting one match a day. Maybe every second day. I'm not sure as it's obviously a busy time of the year.

I hope you enjoy!

Probably not the best matchup for a winter classic, but the spinny wheel has spoken.

I've also attached the first ducks design I did before I changed it

Stadiums too?!?! this is so clean

Next is Dallas Stars @ NY Rangers

This match is played at Yankee Stadium, and the Rangers get to wear the dark uniform, but officially it's a Dallas home game due to the Rangers' deal with MSG that forbids them from playing home games away from the Garden.

Dallas


NY Rangers
