I actually like that. I'm a big fan of different/unique looking jersey's though.

w/o the piping:




I think it'd look great w/o the shoulder patches as well.

Those are so good that if someone could make one of each I'd buy one even though they aren't legit.

I don't understand all the love for the shoulder patches from the 3rds. They look worse than the current flags, and do not fit the theme in the above jersey any better. If you have a logo, keep a logo, don't adorn your jersey with 2 logos because thats just silly. And, if I can criticize, that jersey in the post above just looks like a rehashed '03-04, which, since we are throwing out opinions, is the second worst jersey after the pedestals.

Count me in the group that likes the vertical lines on jerseys and piping as well. It looks sharp that it integrates into the pants, the red and black are great together on it, and the 3 colour letter/numbers look good

Just to nitpick, you're saying that a logo that contains the Flames colour scheme looks just as bad as two different flags, one containing a different red, and the other containing blue?

I'd agree that a jersey can look great without shoulder patches, but Chicago, Toronto, and Boston have great looking jerseys, and they have shoulder patches. It certainly isn't what makes or breaks the silliness of a jersey.

Isn't the 03-04 jersey commonly regarded as the second BEST jersey after the originals?

Agreed. The red on these jerseys is phenomenal.


I like the ones Ashasx posted as well, if the font resembled the ones on Chicago's or Philadelphia's jerseys it would be at the top of the league.

Also, I know teams like Buffalo and Vancouver and Dallas get ragged on for releasing new uniforms every couple years but at least those teams try to make some significant change when they do. These little changes or 'improvements' on recent 'new' jerseys like Anaheim and this new St. Louis just reek of money-grabbing. Non-fans of the team barely recognize anything different. Either keep it the same or totally re-design it -- don't just change the stripes or get rid of the piping so all the hardcore fans will come out en masse to buy one and make you money.

Lol, you guys rock. You can't understand how much of a dream come true it would be to see my jersey on someone's back.

That you guys keep pulling it out of the woodwork is honestly an immense honour. Thank you.

Here's a few other Blues options going forward that caught my eye:



Edit: Coming back to this thread a couple times I hate this 2nd jersey concept... so removed.

I'm glad hockey jerseys are moving back towards simpler design schemes. I think the more minimal jerseys are almost always the best.

It's infuriating how everyone acknowledges that our retro's are clearly phenomenal jerseys, but whoever is actually in charge of that decision seems to be about the only person out there who disagrees.

I feel the Flames new thirds without the black shoulders, and the 'C' logo rather than the wordmark would be good look for the primaries. On the away's the shoulders could be red.

Does anyone have the mock of the old retro thirds with the new shoulder patch on it? I loved the look of that.

This is exactly the one I was looking for. This would make an amazing jersey. The shoulder patch looks so good in those colours..

This is the first time I saw this and it looks really really really good. I'd go out of my way to buy one and have it shipped here if that becomes our jersey.

Modified those for a Flames version:



Looked a bit off at first, but I'm really coming around to it! Maybe I'll do the aways too.
