In 10 years the Flames will have worn 5 different jersey stylings:

Pedistal White/Red jersey
Black Horsehead jersey
Vintage 2004 Cup Run White/Red
RBK Edge Red/White
Vintage Red

Yes there are worse offenders than the Flames, but I'm still sick of them trotting out a new jersey every two years. The latest Edge jerseys for both the Flames and the Hitmen annoy me the most because they had fan favorite jerseys and decided that the RBK Edge switch was a good excuse to alter them enough that they look different enough. No one forced them to change and a lot of teams with good looking fan favorite jerseys in both leagues decided not to change theirs at all.
