    In all honesty, I thought this was a TV production adopted for the RUclips format, because that's how quality this video was. Hell of a job done.

    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.

    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.

  • @jbass4745

    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

    • @icethetics

  • @christophertote8912
    @christophertote8912 4 года назад

    Great, cool video!! Just an oddity - St Louis Blues and Harry Ornest buying the team - Ruth Ornest was to design the new jerseys and I saw EVERY PROTOTYPE!!! Frankie Burns was the equipment manager and Norm Mackie the trainer and I was "down below" and a friend, Mike Nerl, bought all 20. I bought two that had a smaller Blues logo and the Lindbergh plane flying through the Arch expansion. Some even were submitted with the Blue Note "reversed"!! One I purchased was Blue/Gray but no yellow gold and the other I forget but no yellow gold to that design either. Of course, they chose the smaller Blue Note in the middle with BLUES going across.

    If you're looking for more prototypes, I own a variant of the Preds Mustard Cat jersey with a white, "fanged" glacier twill lettering/number scheme that was only seen in a preseason team photo and then scrapped for the more standard, blue customization.
    As far as I know, the one in my collection is the only one that escaped the scrap heap.
