Apparently the league changed the rules this season to allow teams to wear dark helmets with their white uniforms so long as the other team doesn't wear the same colour helmet with their uniforms that night.
Weirdly, the Flames and Wings are the only teams in the league that wear red helmets with their regular home uniforms. Arizona and Carolina have red helmets with their alternate uniforms (although, Arizona's are a different shade of red). All the other teams that wear red jerseys wear either blue or black helmets with them.
Maybe the Flames should make it their thing to wear the red helmets on the road against all the Canadian teams, like they usually wear their alternates against the Canadian teams at home.
