I noticed that too, but didn't realize it had a special name. That should reduce the weight of the logo because it won't be three full layers of heavy twill. The white layer will just be the outline.



Another thing I noticed is that for most of the teams, the largest coloured areas of the logo will be done in the jersey mesh material rather than the twill.

You can see it very well in the Devils' logo here...





That change should also reduce the overall weight of the jerseys. It's hard to tell on the Flames logo because it's black, but I believe the black C is in the jersey mesh material.
