4 years ago I will try this layer out and see if I can get it reproject it to Lambert projection on the map. Simon, If you have a layer with sea ice extent, it should be relatively easy for me (if it is a polygon layer or line) to add it into a map service and add it on top of the map. Once it is added as a service, geoserver will do the reprojection for us, so we should not have to worry about that.
The following might be an option (at least for a first try).

It’s using:
Coordinate System: Alaska Polar Stereographic (WKID 5936)
I prefer the North Pole Lambert-Azimuthal Equal area projection, centred on the North Pole and with 0 degree long. to the south – not Alaska centred.
If we do our own map I could it would be something similar. It uses the same bathymetry sources that I have - maybe would be nice to add some sea-ice extent content. I can see if it’s possible to get this and re-project it if we want to do a custom version/service.
It has a blue background but since we are not using blue symbols that would be OK. (also quite a pale blue).
Anyhow – is this something you could use for a start?
If we do use this and then decide to use a different projection does that involve a lot of complications on your side?
