Notre Dame Hockey Unveils New Alternate Jersey Featuring Sport-Specific Leprechaun Logo

The Fighting Irish are adding a new twist to their historic identity. Notre Dame has unveiled its second sport-specific Leprechaun logo this time for hockey and immediately placed it front and center on a brand-new alternate jersey for the 2025-26 season.

Following the debut of the Football Leprechaun logo back in August, the South Bend powerhouse revealed its new Hockey Leprechaun mark just ahead of the men’s team’s home opener.

Designed in-house by Fighting Irish Media with input from Notre Dame’s hockey program, the logo takes inspiration from photography, fundamentals, and playing styles of both past and present student-athletes. The result is a refined and energetic symbol that captures the toughness, precision, and tradition of Notre Dame Hockey.

The following day, the Irish took things a step further, unveiling a striking new alternate jersey featuring the fresh logo. The sweater boasts a crisp white base complemented by bold navy blue striping around the waist and sleeves. Inside those stripes lies a subtle green accent paired with a tonal Celtic knot pattern that gives the uniform depth and heritage.

Green shamrocks grace both shoulders, while navy blue names and sleeve numbers stand out cleanly. The back numbers feature navy blue with white and green drop shadows for added dimension, a small detail that goes a long way in defining the overall look. Of course, no Notre Dame uniform would be complete without the program’s signature metallic gold helmets, adding that unmistakable Irish shine.

The Kings Reveal Third Jersey

In one of the boldest and most unique unveilings in sports history, the Los Angeles Kings stunned fans and media alike by debuting their brand-new third jerseys live on Opening Night against the Colorado Avalanche. After months of speculation, hints, and fan theories, the Kings simply took the ice wearing them. No buildup, no leaks, no warning. Just a jaw-dropping, real-time reveal that had the hockey world buzzing.

The new third jersey itself is a sleek, dark design, anchored in black and accented with a wave of shimmering silver. This bold look will primarily be worn at home, as dark jerseys typically are, allowing the Kings to fully showcase their new aesthetic in front of their fans. The choice of a dark base not only ties back to the team’s iconic look but also differentiates it from their previous third, a white uniform that was limited by logistical challenges when hosting games.

Front and center on the chest sits the Crown, making its first full-time appearance on a jersey since the 2022–23 Reverse Retro series and its first on a third jersey since the 2012–13 season. That year, of course, marked the Kings’ transition into the era that brought them their Stanley Cup victories in 2012 and 2014. The return of the Crown feels both nostalgic and fitting, connecting today’s Kings to their championship heritage while pushing the brand forward with a modern edge.

The details seal the deal. Complementary silver tones flow throughout the uniform, from the arm and hem striping to the team’s updated “Chrome Dome” helmets. This new wave of silver carries a mirror-like shine that captures the arena lights perfectly, giving the entire look an unmistakable futuristic vibe, one that reflects both the franchise’s Hollywood roots and its modern, championship-caliber identity.

Florida Panthers Unveil 2025 Stanley Cup Championship Rings

The Florida Panthers are once again on top of the hockey world, and now, they have the hardware to prove it. The Panthers celebrated their back-to-back championships as players, coaches, and staff received their 2025 Stanley Cup Championship Rings during a private ceremony at the War Memorial Auditorium in Fort Lauderdale.

Handcrafted in 14-karat white and yellow gold and featuring over 450 diamonds and genuine rubies, the ring captures both the legacy and the grit of a team that defended its title “against overwhelming odds.”

“When designing this ring we wanted to appropriately memorialize the story of the 2024-25 Florida Panthers,” said Panthers Owner & Alternate Governor Teresa Viola. “This ring symbolizes our continued pursuit of excellence, our commitment to the community and the values embodied by our players, coaches and staff.”

The ring’s top showcases ‘PANTHERS’ in 14-karat yellow gold, sitting above two Stanley Cups that represent the team’s 2024 and 2025 titles. Surrounding these Cups are 81 diamonds and 60 rubies, symbolizing the back-to-back championships. The perimeter features the words ‘STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS’, also set in gold and adorned with an additional 145 diamonds, while another 122 diamonds and 18 princess-cut rubies complete the design.

“The 2025 ring features details that bring the back-to-back champions’ story to life,” said Chris Poitras, SVP and GM of The Champions Collective. “We are honored to present it to the Panthers organization.”

Each ring is personalized for its recipient, featuring their name and title on the left side, along with a panel shaped like the team’s primary shield logo. The right side displays ‘FLORIDA’ in yellow gold above the Leaping Cat logo, framed by two palm trees that represent the palms lining Amerant Bank Arena.

White gold palm trees wrap around the interior, leading to a prowling panther engraving on the outer edge, a sleek finishing touch that embodies the team’s fearless spirit.

Inside the ring, engravings tell the story of the Panthers’ journey:

“WE APOLOGIZE TO NO ONE,” the team’s rallying mantra, is boldly etched above the playoff series results.

The date of their championship-clinching victory — June 17, 2025 — is immortalized.

And finally, a small black rat engraving pays tribute to one of the most beloved fan traditions in hockey.

With over 450 gemstones totaling approximately 16.15 carats, the 2025 Stanley Cup ring isn’t just a symbol of victory—it’s a tribute to a team that has defined resilience, confidence, and culture in South Florida sports.

Capitals Unveil Screaming Eagle Third Jersey for 2025-26 Season

The Washington Capitals are bringing back one of their most beloved looks with a modern twist. The team unveiled a brand-new red third jersey featuring the iconic screaming eagle logo, set to debut during the 2025-26 NHL season. The Capitals will wear the design for 15 home games this year, and it will remain in rotation as the official third uniform for the next three seasons.

Designed in partnership with Fanatics, the uniform blends eras of Capitals history while pushing the brand forward. The primary red base ties back to the team’s signature color and passionate fan base, while a white rounded shoulder yoke and classic striping across the hem pay tribute to the Capitals’ early uniforms from the 1970s and 80s.

A lace-up neckline adds timeless hockey character, while the return of the 1990s Capitol Dome shoulder patch delivers a wave of nostalgia. At the center, the screaming eagle logo takes flight once again, its downward dive symbolizing speed, strength, and dominance.

The uniform is filled with subtle details that connect to the District: three stars on the pants and three sleeve stripes in red, white, and blue represent the loyal DMV fan base, while a District of Columbia flag loop label at the back hem provides a hidden discovery element. Inside the collar, the “Caps” wordmark serves as a final nod to team pride.

Alongside the jersey, the Capitals are rolling out refreshed creative rooted in the screaming eagle identity. The design system uses sharp “eagle scratch” textures inspired by the logo itself, bold ALL CAPS typography pulled from the jersey neckline, and a red, blue, and gold color palette to create a modern yet heritage-driven look.

The screaming eagle jersey is more than a third sweater; it’s a statement. By honoring multiple eras of franchise history while embracing the team’s connection to DC and its fans, the Capitals have delivered a design that blends nostalgia with fresh energy. For longtime fans and new ones alike, this third jersey will be a must-watch every time it hits the ice at Capital One Arena.

As the Nationals wrap up their 20th anniversary season and the Capitals reflect on their 50th anniversary milestone last year, the jersey stands as a symbol of the strong bond between the organizations and their connection to the city they represent.

The partnership between the Caps and Nats has been highlighted by unforgettable moments:

The 2015 NHL Winter Classic at Nationals Park.

Ceremonial first pitches and cross-sport appearances.

The Stanley Cup’s visit to Nationals Park in 2018.

Nationals players taking a Zamboni ride at Capital One Arena following their 2019 World Series win.

The jersey design proudly features “Washington” across the chest as a nod to shared city pride on both the diamond and the ice. Its font and numbering are inspired by the Nationals’ 2005 home uniform, paying tribute to the return of Major League Baseball to D.C. after a 33-year absence.

Kraken Unveil Glow-in-the-Dark Third Uniform

The Seattle Kraken are diving deeper than ever before with the reveal of their brand-new third uniform: The Jersey from the Abyss. Forged in shadows and lit by the eerie glow of bioluminescence, this all-black kit is designed to bring stealth, intimidation, and Northwest identity to the ice.

From helmet to blade, the Kraken’s new look is head-to-toe matte black, creating a fluid silhouette that moves silently across the ice. The sleeves and socks are patterned with sonar pings, an echo through the darkness that hints at what lies just beyond sight.

The Kraken logo has been reimagined in tonal black-on-black stitching, making it nearly invisible at first glance—like a predator lying in wait. But when the lights dim, the iconic “S” comes alive.

Encircling the crest is an Ice Blue glow-in-the-dark outline, a nod to the rare natural phenomenon of bioluminescence found in the waters of the Pacific Northwest. It’s a detail that makes this jersey unlike anything else in the NHL, capturing the mystery of the deep.

The Kraken continue to celebrate local heritage with the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe patch, which is given a glowing treatment to match the jersey’s theme. It’s a reminder that the team’s roots are tied directly to the region they represent.

“The Jersey from the Abyss” is more than just a third uniform—it’s a statement piece. The combination of stealth black, sonar-inspired design, and glow-in-the-dark detailing sets a new bar for creativity in NHL sweaters. Fans can expect a one-of-a-kind experience when these hit the ice at Climate Pledge Arena.

The St. Louis Blues Unveil Bold New Uniforms and Brand Identity

The St. Louis Blues are striking a powerful chord with their fanbase once again, this time through a comprehensive reimagining of their core look. The NHL franchise has officially unveiled brand-new primary home and away uniforms, embracing the club’s roots while harmonizing their history with a sharp, modern identity. The result? A bold new era built on decades of musical and cultural legacy.

Inspired by the jerseys first worn in 1967, the new look marks a return to the Blues’ original color palette—a vibrant blue and yellow refreshed for the modern age. Designed in collaboration with RARE Design and Fanatics over a three-year span, the updated uniforms and brand system are the latest example of how a team can respect its past while confidently stepping into the future.

Fans of the Winter Classic series will recognize the inspiration behind the new threads. The home set draws from the 2017 Winter Classic uniform, while the away jersey references the 2022 Winter Classic design, swapping the cream base for crisp white to align more closely with traditional NHL looks. The Blues are also transitioning the royal blue jersey (formerly their primary) to a new role as their official third jersey, giving the fresh primary set more room to shine.

Design enhancements include:

One-color numbers for improved clarity and visual impact

A new interlocking STL logo on the pant leg, tying together the city and the team

Thicker striping and bold color blocking reminiscent of the club’s early years

The legendary Blue Note logo, one of the most iconic symbols in all of hockey, has undergone a subtle yet significant transformation. Moving from three colors to two—eliminating beige—the updated Note features thicker blue and yellow keylines and a slightly reshaped design that balances modernity with familiarity. This evolution ensures the logo pops across all platforms, from HD screens to retail gear.

Introduced in 1997-98, the previous version served the franchise for over two decades. The new Blue Note is more dynamic and digitally optimized, while still playing the same timeless melody fans know and love.

The Blues didn’t stop at the jersey. They’ve also added new tertiary and secondary brand marks that celebrate the unique identity of St. Louis:

The Fleur – A refined fleur-de-lis inspired by the St. Louis city flag, with a treble clef flourish and note head stem

Interlocking STL – A bold, modern emblem blending musical elements with civic pride

River Music – A stunning mark combining the Gateway Arch and the Mississippi River to form a trumpet—a tribute to the city’s jazz and blues heritage

These marks allow fans new ways to represent their team and city, deepening the emotional connection between community and club.

The brand overhaul also introduces custom wordmarks and typography that dance to the rhythm of the Mississippi. The primary wordmark mirrors the river’s steady flow, while a stylized version pays homage to the iconic 1914 "St. Louis Blues" sheet music cover by W.C. Handy.

The custom Blues font merges sharp edges with smooth curves—a typographic reflection of the intensity and grace of the game itself.

“Remixed. Remastered. Reborn” isn’t just a tagline—it’s a philosophy. The fan-favorite looks of the past are no longer reserved for special events. Based on overwhelming support from fans and feedback from surveys and jersey contests, the heritage-inspired identity is now the foundation of the Blues brand moving forward.

“Evolving one of the most iconic marks in our sport was a responsibility our brand team and equipment staff undertook with great pride,” said Chris Zimmerman, Blues President and CEO of Business Operations. “The evolution of the Blue Note, and development of additional brand marks, provides our fans new ways to express and celebrate their support for the St. Louis Blues.”

From jersey to logo, font to symbolism, the Blues’ 2025 identity is a masterclass in how to modernize without losing soul.
