[Bingo]

I said it 23 and 28 pages ago, but they are growing on me a lot

Like the jersey, don't like the word art on the front

Agreed!

red jersey? check
horizontal striping? check
new and decent shoulder crest? check

I like the number and name fonts too!

My dislikes are:
-the script writing at the front, although if it was the flaming C, our home jerseys and these would look redundant.
-don't really like the shoulders, I wish the whole jersey was red.

Considering Ken King was going to put out an all black third jersey with a script front a few years ago, this is a much better idea.

I'm definitely in the minority but the red pedestal jersey is easily my favorite jersey the Flames have ever worn. I proudly wear it everytime I'm at the Dome. Now that I actually think about it, I think it is the white C (and white shoulders) I like so much about it. Much better than a black C in my opinion.

These new jerseys are growing on me. I look forward to seeing them overtop of shoulder pads to get a better impression.

These new 3rds, call me crazy, but I really like them. I like the word mark on them. They're clean, simple, and unique. The only change I would make would be to get rid of the flaming C under the word mark. I will be buying one the day they are released, getting "Monahan 23" on the back, and wearing it to the dome. I've been wearing my retro for 2 years now. Time for a change.

I agree, but the word art is the focal point of the entire jersey. It ruins everything that is good about the uniform for me. It really is no better than the Wal-Mart knock-offs.

After much soul-searching and reconsideration, I still think this is the 2nd worst Flames jersey ever. Second only to the Ronald McDonald threads.

Who do they have picking these things?

It's like they go out of their way to find the most bland uniform so that it wont upset the 60 year old ultra conservative lady behind the glass, who stops Ken King, because she thinks they have a relationship, in the hallways of the Saddledome every time she sees him.

Let's step outside our comfort zone and do something no one else has!! At least it would be refreshing, new, and totally our own.

It's a Calgary Flames third jersey not an NHL template that we need to follow.

Grow a pair Ken King and be unique and enterprising.

I would laugh if wasn't so damn depressing. If it comes to pass then someone should lose their job over this.

Ken King are you listening??

Shoulder logo is confirmed it looks like:

Unfortunate choice in jersey design. Looks like garbage.

I do like the new shoulder logo - actually looks pretty cool in b/w:



And it looks increasingly likely that these are the new 3rds:

The only thing wrong with the HC jerseys was that they Flames-ized it. They should have kept the Tigers' black and orange, imnsho.

I have a hard time ranking this jersey behind either the pedestal unis, the horse head or our current.

So is anyone here going to Flames Fest this weekend?

Here is the shoulder logo colourized:





And here's today's second teaser photo:

For a shoulder patch I love that logo.

[Resolute 14]

Agreed. Would love to see them replace the flags on our primary sets with it.

Because, truthfully, we're at least 3-4 years away from the team changing that. They are going to let the third jersey sales play out before correcting the primaries.

I certainly prefer you wear the Flames' pedestal jersey to the 'Dome over a Canucks or Oilers rag!

Isn't that what the Sabres did?

Guessing...a sideways view of the white "G" in Glencross?
