With such a Blasty revival, I feel like a better team name would have been Ghostriders (in case you didn't know, in the classic song the ghost riders are described as riding "horses snorting fire").

Minor league jerseys are supposed to look a bit #### - it’s a subconscious way to motivate the players to work their way out of these clown costumes and into a proper flaming C.

I like the white ones.
Watching the video, it’s clear they are modernizing and recolouring the old ones, but red logo on red looks a bit jarring.

That said, glad they kept the Flames color scheme rather than sneak black back in there.

2 seasons and they’ll be black third with the sideways Blasty.

I like both kits. I understand why the pant shells are the same as the parent club, but they don't look out of place with the rest of the uniforms.

I actually kinda dig the red on red. It's different. I think the yellow flames in there make it pop.

Whites look good, but the red W on a red jersey? Meh. Should be a white W on red jersey.

I guess I will wait until I see one in person to pass final judgement I guess.

Sideways horse logo is terrible. I hate Blasty and this is worse. Jersey overall is meah, not terrible not great. I like the white one better than the red and agree with others that there is a bit too much yellow.

If I'm being honest, those are fugly. The sleeves look bad, the red on red look like crap. There's nothing good about them other than the updated Blasty logo.

I actually think almost everything about the jersey (main logo, side blasty, the jersey itself) is ugly, but like so ugly it might grow on you and you might find yourself wearing one to be ironic or something.

I appreciate that it’s a bit different. It’s unique! And ugly! And that’s great.

Most of us have been casually following the AHL for decades, that doesn't change anything, they're still ugly. Telling us that other ugly stuff is also ugly doesn't help.

Ugly stuff is ugly. These are retro and fun. Maybe a little tacky but that's part of the appeal.

The shoulder patch is interesting — I think there is a difference between liking the Blasty logo versus liking Blasty as a concept.

I’m personally not a fan of a horse shooting flames out of his nose, but I could get on board with the original logo because it was nostalgic. Not a particular fan of this version.
