In all honesty, I thought this was a TV production adopted for the UA-cam format, because that's how quality this video was. Hell of a job done.
Thanks! And I do work in TV professionally, so that tracks. 😅
@@icethetics i've been a fan of icethetic since their debut on the web ! And this kind of production is so cool ! It's better then TV production !!!
I always been a fan of hockey jersey
Tremendous video and wonderful production! I learned a lot!
Dallas reverse retro is so good ;)
Great minds think alike, eh Neil??
Where is Brent, Neil? :-D
P.S. - You already answered this question of mine some time ago. I'm just teasing you. :-)
Not being biased because I love the subject matter...
This was a fantastically made video.
This feels like an NHL documentary like Road to the Winter Classic or Behind the Glass. Great stuff!
this video is so well put together wow
I know you’ve been looking forward to this for a while but I must say, I’m blown away at the polish. This is masterfully done, and I can’t wait to enjoy more Icethetics content. Already my go-to website for concept consumption and I knew the channel would be a mainstay for me, but this is far beyond what I anticipated. Great work.
Can’t wait for more vids i’ve been following your website for years
If the Nordiques ever come back I would LOVE to see a modernised version of the scrapped logo as their new logo.
Right?
I was not expecting this level of quality, really well done
Great presentation, I'm really looking forward to more videos!
Holy cow, the production quality is INSANE for such a small channel! If I didn't know that it was your channel, I would've assumed that the video was made by the NHL.
this is one of the best things i've ever seen.
The fact that this guy put in this much work and doesn’t even have over 3k subscribers while there are people with over 1 million subs making videos with not even half the effort that was put into this is upsetting, but keep up the fantastic work
Thanks! It's a brand new channel, so I hope we can keep growing it.
This could be a 6 hour video and I’d love every minute of it. I love seeing concepts and the history behind some what if designs
Thanks! I hope to have a bunch more to come.
As a lifelong jersey addict and collector, I loved this!
You have so much potential, I can’t wait to see what’s coming in the future
All the Canuck concepts were sick to me but that capitals Reebok concept one👀🥵
The production of this is absolutely incredible.
Your content feels like something we'd find on on ESPN while being sick at home from school one day
That black and turquoise flyers alternate looks pretty neat.
This channel is straight up PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTION QUALITY!! Love it Love it!!! Keep it up!
Interessting video for all hockey jersey collectors. I give a like for part 2. They were jersey that i have never saw before.
One of the best videos I've seen on here. You managed to bring a positive vibe and energy right up to cruising altitude and keep it there throughout. Great, great job.
Great job man!! Don't forget about the early and infamous Ottawa Senators Peace Tower jersey. I remember seeing them in a store back in '91, before they got denied.
That was pretty awesome. Love the background of the designs, can’t wait for part 2.
Amazing video! Cant wait for more!
Wow that went by fast! Great video Chris, can’t wait for more!
Amazing quality on this video. Can't wait for more!
Amazing video! Can’t wait for part 2.
You earned a new subscriber just for mentioning the Hampton Roads Rhinos, a name I never thought I'd hear again
I never knew them
Such an awesome video. Genuinely excited for part 2.
Chris, this is a fantastic production!!! I can't wait to see more!!! Keep up the great work!!!
That was amazing. I love learning about logo and jersey concepts! So cool!
Great! Looking forward for part 2
As a graphic designer myself this series of videos is heaven!
Very well done. Good job Chris!
Excellent video, cant wait for part two..... :-)
Awesome vid! Great production!
It’s good to see icethetics with a UA-cam channel. Hopefully it’ll start to gain a larger follower base soon
This video was great. Amazing quality!
Great job 👏 more of these please
This is amazingly well put together. I've been reading the site for years so I'm hyped for this channel.
Wow that was really awesome! :D Thank goodness most of those designs did not see the light of day! :O
We need a channel like this for every team sport 🙌
Chris! The QUALITY! I'm glad to see you expanding outside of the blog! This is fantastic!
This is an amazing video; one of the best hockey related videos I have seen.
Amazing production. I did read one of your comments that you work in TV. You have skills my man, right down to the background music! Well done and keep’em coming!
I got pretty deep into the Icethetics site for a while and seeing this video brings me right back in! To echo everyone else’s comments, this was a wonderfully made video. Looks like you put a lot of time and effort into it and it shows. Well done!
Such a great video! Thank you so much for these!
Thanks CJ! Glad you're enjoying them.
Yeah, I'm subscribing. Been following this site for a few years now, and this is a very well produced and informative video. Hockey, uniforms and logos. It's my cup of tea. Can't wait to see what comes next.
This video was so well-done and informative!
Wonderful job, the video seems well researched and very professional. Can't wait to see your future work!
Really well done, just like your website! I've also been following your content for about 10 years now, really the best you can get on the subject of hockey aesthetic
Feels like this channel was a long time coming. I knew icethetics was destined to have a a place here on UA-cam! Awesome first video and congrats! Can’t wait to see what the future holds!
8:30 There are so many slick designs for Calgary here. It's a shame they never went with any of these.
Well done man Always loved contributing for that brief stint when I did. So fun to see all the creations everyone's got! Nice video!
Holy hell, this channel is amazing! How have I only just found it?! The quality is better than someTV shows, hats off to the creator!
Thank you for the kind words!
Great video. Glad to see you expanding Icethetics :) Been a fan for over 12 years, congrats and cheers to more success
Glad I’m not the only one obsessed with hockey jersey history. Awesome video
Incredible Job Chris. Very impressive production quality and top notch content. Keep up the great work and stories!
Incredible video. Some of these concepts just blew my mind. So glad there's more to watch!
Awesome work mate.
This was amazing and I have always loved the content on the site
Loved the first episode! I had no idea about all of the concepts (mostly bad) of the 'Xtreme' and so many other teams. I'm going to watch this one again until the next episode is out.
Wow!!! Great job on this video!!!
Incredible. Video. Please keep going. This is fantastic content.
The structure and depth of this video makes me think you’ve got big balls. Well done
You did such a wonderful job on this video, great stuff
This was an awesome video!
Whoa!!! This has so much cool information and, as many people have already said, is BEAUTIFULLY produced.
Caught a glimpse of that Blues Brothers inspired logo for St. Louis. Would've been something if they used that.
Always loved the Blues logo. That original prototype was cool!
great video! some really interesting concepts out there! been an icethetics follower since 2007, keep up the good work and good luck with the future!
Wow this video is on another level!
Man living in VA my whole life, having an NHL team would have been amazing and definitely could have helped. We did have Hampton Roads in the ECHL which were really good but Man the possibilities!!!!!
Love the video!
Very well done, Chris. I’ve been following your blog since it’s early days and this shows some tremendous growth.
Awesome! Thank you!
Great work, Chris! You've come so far from when I first started frequenting icethetics! Keep 'em coming!
Hmmm . . . . Tacos ! ! ! :-D
horror/thriller author sez: Diehard hockey fan that I am, this vid opened up a whole new area for me. Nice job, Chris!
Wow what a professionally produced video! Definitely going to give you a follow!
First video I’ve actually seen of yours but it was great, keep it up man
It's the first video I've made for this channel and thank you!
This was so well made wow
Well done!
Fantastic production.
Hope to see many more videos. Keep it up!
I subcribed. So i better start seeing more videos like this :)
Maybe even doing Individual teams would be neat!! And interviewing designers who worked on some of these concepts and designs.
OH and a video about what it takes to get a team to finally make a change to their logo
Whoa- what a find this video was! I know you're called "Icethetics" but this style of video would go a long way with other sports and/or brands as well. We love a good logo. Keep it up- and subbed.
this was amazing
That New York Rangers alternate with the Statue of Liberty is so well done (but 99% of all of them are also well done :)
Wow this is amazing!! I just came across your channel!! Great stuff!!
Extremely well-made video!
I just learned an few things that I didn't know about Ice Hockey jerseys, the history video was awesome smashing job bro.
For a first video (aside from the channel intro), this was great. Looking forward to watch it grow.
Wow, the production quality of this channel is incredible
Thanks for the kind words!
Crazy video!
Great video!
Please upload consistently! This is gonna be my favourite channel this year!
I would absolutely love to see more videos like this
This is a beautifully written & excellent video! This looked like it was made from a top network like NBC,TSN or SportsNet! You got my subscription and keep up the great work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, great video.
