I'd love to hear which one Flames players actually like better, between the retro and the black C. I've only ever heard two players in the past mention it (Conroy and Backlund), and both totally preferred the retros. I have a feeling if you polled the locker room, the retros would win out in a landslide. As they should.

I just like how much flashier they are. I actually got used to the black C after awhile, and even own 2 jerseys of it. But since the retros came back, I forgot how much better they are. After a game in the retros, I always find the regulars so dull looking.

I really hope this new 3rd doesn't mean the end of the retros. If the white never makes an appearance it'll be a crime.
