  • Okay, today we look at the Calgary Flames and their jersey history. I do have the script jersey, just forgot to include it here. Watch for that in tomorrow's Canes video.

      They said the same thing with the senators throwback jerseys, the black/red/beige striped jerseys.
      Instead we kept the same ones and ruined the throwback jersey by changing the colors to mostly red, white and for some reason a silver stripe and logo. Silver has NEVER been a Sens color.
      I grew up in Calgary and I hope they follow through on that, those 80s jerseys are super nice

    The mid-90's era Flames jersey wasn't one of my favourites considering I live in the Calgary area. The diagonal stripe was useless in my opinion. I heard from some people that it meant 'Progress'. Yeah right. The way it stopped at the flaming C meant early playoff exit or no playoffs.
    Others have mentioned it but the script 'Calgary'' jersey with the radically different shoulder patch was omitted.

    I hate all of these Flames jerseys in black. Ever since the introduction of black into the flames color palette in the Germany jerseys, black has tarnished the jerseys. The current road jerseys aren't too offensive, but the current homes with the black C is the worst thing in my view.
    The only black one that has ever been good was Blasty, because Blasty was so incredibly different that it was okay to do a radically different design. The black C doesn't work by contrast and nor does the black striping
