And my friend is one hell of a good graphic designer too, he made my last album cover that was insane
She needs to be honoured somehow. Forever a Flame?

I don't know if it's the exact font she used, but it's pretty much the capital C from Helvetica Bold Italic.

Disagree. I like the retro's for retro's or 3rds, but they look outdated and kinda like lumberjack pajamas overall. I know there's lots of love for them here and generally - but to me they don't look as classic as some people like to believe that they are. Compared to the classics like detroit, chicago, boston, montreal, etc. I think there are better ways to go with a classic-ish design (leaving black out) that would be fine. Several on this thread actually. But I really do like the black flaming C as a primary crest. I think maybe we could do with less black overall, but I still think it's a good secondary color. I'd also like to bring out the yellow a bit more in future designs.

Saw this on eBay -- someone selling a bunch of "prototype" jerseys -- I'm guessing from 2007 when the Edge jerseys were first introduced. Here is the Calgary one he has listed:

I think it's slightly better than what we ended up with. I think read on here that Darryl Sutter demanded a waist stripe, so we ended up with the yellow and red/white on the hem that makes the jerseys way worse.

Those look very college hockey like. I think fans would be bored of them very quickly.

Boring is good.

Their last 3rd was interesting. Look how well that turned out.

In the debate of new arena concept designs the last 3rd Jersey Count Chocula Walmart Specials, give me minimal confidence in the design evaluation capabilities of Flames decision makers.
