I think I'll go get one customized with 'Backstrom' on the back. Who's with me?

Agreed. The Canadian jersey looks like what a third-rate DC Comics superhero would wear. It's just terrible.

I've been asking myself that since they decided to do it. My guess is that they brought in a fresh look alternate to go along with the fresh look Flames of 2013. Whatever their reasoning was, I think it's safe to say that it was a mistake.

For any of the graphic designers here, would be cool to see what a retro theme Flames jersey would look like with the Adidas world cup of hockey template.

Wow, there have been some bad word mark based jerseys in recent memory. I am glad our three years are done! The Flames third actually stacks up nicely against most of these.

The Buffalo one I do. Short lived. Was the Anaheim one even used? In the CCM/Koho era? That I don't remember at all.

I seem to recall pics of Fedorov in one, but I may be out to lunch on that.
Edit: Found it. Best I can do, sorry can't embed...

It was their alternate jersey starting in 2003-04. They wore it until they changed their uniforms completely in 2006-07.
They actually wore it as their home jersey during the 2006 playoffs.

Pretty sure Anaheim wore that one at home during the 06' first round series against the Flames.

They've been 50% off for about a month. No one knows yet what we will be using in 16/17. Could be the retros, could be something new altogether.

Buffalo's were only cool because at the time, they were still wearing their 90s era black/red unis. So it was a kind of throwback look to their original - and now current - uniforms.

With all this 3rd jersey talk, this is the first time I have ever noticed that the Regular vs the 3rd jersey full set-up is mostly just the socks and arms reversed, no piping and black shoulders. Take the best elements between the two and we have a better Jersey.

I can't stand our current number font, it looks horribly dated. The numbers need to not be tilted, and they need to be slimmer. Fat, off balance numbers can go.
