I think a lot of it has to do on your age as a fan when they wore the jersey in question. I was a kid when the Flames arrived from Atlanta and my childhood hero’s wore the original jerseys. The changes in jerseys started as the Flames on ice performance slipped and I grew up. I don’t have any nostalgic feelings towards the pedestal or Blasty as for me they are a reminder of a grim era of Flames hockey. I liked the 04 vintage jerseys as they were a clean, modern take but that only lasted a few years. I understand why people like Blasty/Pedestal but its not for me.
