I said "this close" to being unanimous, as in Flames fans are never even close to being unanimous on topics, but this was about as close as you'll see.
An overwhelming majority of fans hate them, and a few sales because they're new doesn't change that. You see them around a bit, but for the first truly new jersey this team has put out since '06 (or whenever the current home/away's came out) the response is clearly a resounding failure.
The way fans eat up merchandise in this city, you'd see them flying off the shelves if they were even semi-decent. That isn't the case. They're terrible.
