The retro jerseys should never have been messed with in the 90s. The Rangers, Hawks, Leafs, Habs, etc realized they had a great thing going and didn't need to mess with tradition to adapt some marketing gimmicks like adding black and some new age stripping.
And as much as I wish the Flames went full home and away retros, I have a feeling it's not going to happen.
I was at the Fanattic and found out they don't have the $300 authentic Retros anymore, and they aren't ordering anymore in. That leads me to believe the retro jersey could be on the way out. Take that for what it's worth anyways.
