As far as I'm concerned they're still full of bad voodoo and jinxes. Screw the 3rds.

That's not a certain. Many AHL teams have very similar jerseys to their parent clubs, but not identical replica's. Some go off the board completely as well. I wouldn't bet on the fact that the jerseys will be carbon copies.

Yes it is.

At a news conference today in Glens Falls, NY, Calgary Flames representatives, including General Manager Brad Treliving, Adirondack Flames President Brian Petrovek, and Glens Falls Mayor John Diamond introduced both the name and the stylized “A” that will ultimately be incorporated into the logo for Adirondack’s team. The main logo for the Adirondack Flames will be a version of the historic flaming “A” which was originally worn by the Atlanta Flames in the 1970s. The home and away jerseys will have the same color and striping pattern as the NHL Flames.

I thought you were talking about the Heat jerseys in reference to the BC flag.

Ok, so we need someone to photoshop this to Adirondack

That one dude (I can't remember which one) on 960 who worked with Steinberg on the afternoon show in the dark days (before Kerr came back) will have nightmares trying to say It. The best he could do was "Ad-in-ak" when doing some updates a few months ago.

If they change the font for the letters and numbers and maybe alter it to not have those western shirt shoulders, you might be able to salvage that jersey design afterall.

...and a full exorcism.

[Drury18]

Let's try this. Flames 3rd design with removal of the western style shoulders, adding both the US Flag and NY Flag shoulder patches (as this is how the shoulders on both the Flames and Heat jerseys look like) and then the lettering/numbers from the Flames current Home/Away jerseys.

I wouldn't be surprised if the jersey design was the Flames 3rds.

I think there should be an 'A' crest, and a normal looking "A" as the alternate.

Agree. That year the Flames used a small version of the logo as the captain C looked ridiculous. Adirondack could use that for their C crest though.

Can't wait for FanAttic to get some in some merch.

I feel this is more suitable, completed with the chairs.
