True, though not sure if the rules have changed as far as how the profits are split and the timing.
And for all the complaints about King and the owners etc etc, they are the same group that was involved with the 2004 jerseys.
Finally, as said before, I think the Flames wanted the fresh look or retro look the last years reserved for when they moved into the new building, which would’ve been long by now given the timelines the Flames had internally. That not going according to plan clearly, the lockout, flood, the jersey supplier changing and new rules around that, all have contributed to the disjointed uniform plan, which likely isn’t high up the priority list either.
