I'm not a big blasty guy, nor do I love the black jersey, but do we need to get an update from CP on jersey history? (maybe wait until the new black ones hit the ice).
But that Oiler jersey ... thought Edmontonians hated it too.

Because it's the Oilers, (no good) and was that logo and jersey was done with typical over the top theatrics given who the designer was, it is terrible, but it's not unlike, then what the Flames did in theory, trying too hard to be different.
And now, just like Blasty, the negative connotation is dimished or at least resides in an older, quieter opinion, whereas the younger, more vocal minority who would care about answering these polls, responds to this poll and associates unique/different = good.
