I didn't realize that being in your twenties was old.
The 80s jerseys are red. Plain and simple. They may appear orange because of the interplay with the white and the bright yellow on them as well - just as the '04 jerseys appear darker because of the black C and the black trim. I also miss the red Montreal-style bar that was on top of the white jersey.
As far as this titantic struggle to find shoulder-patches that everyone likes, why are they even neccessary?

Check out all those pics of Al Macinnis. He doesn't have a shoulder patch in any of them except for the Stanley Cup finals one. Shoulder patches should be for achievements and special events. You don't need state and provincial flags, burning towers, or flaming snot-horses on the shoulders year-round.
