I don't understand it either. Ronald McDonald wears red and white stripes with yellow overalls, it's nothing like the heritage jersey. Besides pretty much every team in the league shares their colours with a major brand, it's not a big deal. That said the current Flames jerseys make me think of Lego.

I'm not a big fan of the heritage jerseys though, there is something not quite right about them. I think it is a combination of:
1. Another "jersey by committee" trying to combine the Flames and Tigers looks.
2. The Flames already had a great retro jersey which was worn against Montreal in 2 Stanley Cups.
3. Other outdoor games had great jerseys, these are just meh in comparison.
