One of the most iconic franchises in all of professional sports, the Detroit Red Wings are part of the “Original 6” teams of the National Hockey League.
Having originally been founded in 1926, they were known initially as the “Detroit Cougars”; a subsequent name change saw them being known as the “Falcons” before the nickname that’s stuck since 1932 was introduced.
That being said, it’s always cool to visualize new uniform concepts, as long as they’re done correctly. Case in point – this latest “color rush” jersey concept. Take a look at this rendering from the popular Grind Line Podcast:
So while we are showing off jersey designs, hesitated to share this one but the more I look at it the more I like it. My take on what would be a Wings color rush jersey. A different stripe design but still sticking to traditional colors with silver added.#LGRW #RedWings pic.twitter.com/zj2mtO3b4y
