I think that mock looks great, but I agree about keeping black. Maybe something like that, but with the logo and striping all outlined in black? As long as it isn't a major colour, I think black works well

I love most of these mock ups. So disappointing the Flames have one of the best logos in the league but one of the worst jerseys. I hope they go full retro but at the very least get rid of the vertical stripes and the shoulder flags.

Hate the logo on the top two, but that black and red jersey looks interesting.

If you got rid of the white points, lowered the chest strip down to it's normal position and put a black c on that, it would be a great looking jersey.

Not sure if serious. You are happy with the current Lego colour scheme but have a problem with McDonalds? You are going to have a tough time finding any colour scheme that isn't also used by a corporation.

What about the Maple Leafs and HP? Panthers and Burger King? Red Wings and Coke? Rangers and Pepsi? Wild and Mountain Dew? Lightning and BMW? Would you be happy if every NHL team changed their colours to Pink and Green so they didn't match a corporate logo?

When I think Red and Yellow the first thing that comes to mind is the Calgary Flames. Number 2 is the KC Chiefs.

For me, I like your previous version of this rendering but maybe with the black accent on that.

That and the alternate jersey having the flaming C on it as well would be a big W in my books.

Love the work you've done, great job and thank you!

To be fair to Dion I don't think it was him that designed that monstrosity. He just found it and was kind enough to share the torture with us.

That horse logo would actually be okay for the Stampeders.

I really dig this. I think it's the perfect blend of the retro with a little black for those who like it. A black version with similar colors to the Horsehead uni would be a great third.

Different logo though. To be honest I'm not a huge fan of the shoulderpatch as a crest.

Looks like a Charles Schultz design.

If I get this right you don't like the original red/yellow/white nor red/yellow/black/white? Some of you must realize that blue and green are the only remaining spectrum colours available and they won't work for the Flames. IMO they should scrap yellow and go with the same colours as the Stampeders which is red/black/white. Or scrap red and go yellow/black/white. Red and yellow simply don't make for an overly attractive scheme.

As far as the actual colours of a flame go black and yellow are the associated colours so red isn't necessarily required although I'm not sure about leaving the sea of red behind.

The away is good, but people need to stop making the bottom of the home jersey white. That would look so bad in person. Especially with the stupid little extra hang that these jerseys have.

You are basically looking at Team Canada jerseys if you drop the yellow:
