Flames Flames to discontinue third jersey

They are 50% off right now at Jersey City.
Guys working there said they are going back to the retros for third jerseys in 2016-16.

Today is a good day (and not because you can get ugly jerseys 50% off).

They should keep the thirds and make the retros their permanent jerseys

How about we just make the retro jersey our primary, and have new away jerseys.

At all Jersey City locations? Do you know if that includes named jerseys or just blanks?

Hopefully making the retros have more appearances next season is because they want to transition them into becoming the primaries for when the Adidas brand takes over...

Don't anybody get too excited. If history is any guide, this is only being done in order to make way for a new, even worse idea.

CalgaryNext...
"Forever a Flame"...
The current main jerseys...
The third-jersey logo...

I love the team, but it's been a long time since they've made any marketing / image decisions that made me say "awesome!"

Would also like the Retros to be our primary jersey. That retro Flames jersey has to be one of the best in the league

Meh. I kinda liked the thirds but I'm not going to be too sad to see them go. They had a good three years, which is a good length for a third.

Wouldn't surprise me. Especially considering they usually wear them against other Canadian teams -- all of which are terrible.
