My guess is they just drop the flags but the rest is pretty much unchanged (maybe a different shoulder patch instead).
As you mentioned it doesn't sound like the Adidas jerseys will be a big overhaul league-wide.

Oh, I thought he meant the red on the shoulders. Either way, there's no orange.

Oh for sure, but in fairness, our yellow/gold is a bit orangey, but definitely not a vibrant orange like the Oilers, Flyers or Islanders

I wonder if they all get that three stripe armpit look like the World Cup jerseys. If so that changes the Flames jersey quite a bit because they already have a busy armpit to their home and away jerseys.
Would be interesting to see the same jersey with the crap from under the arm, and that silly broken stripe on the bottom gone.

Just wish they'd go with Retros full time with a tiny Addidas logo on the back.

I like top left golden C.
Won't happen of course, but a few tweaks with the collar and this would be a handsome jersey.

Yellow/gold is within the palette of fire colours. Moreso than black, which is the aftermath.

I still prefer the white C myself, but I think I like the yellow/gold more than the black. The Big advantage to a yellow C IMO, is you can wear on both the home and away jerseys.

Someone mock up the current jersey without side stripes, and replace the flags with the new alternate patch... Could be close to what they are going with.

If the Flames want to subtly troll for new arena money, they may want to consider using the Flames Foundation logo as a shoulder patch.

Celebrated Square Root Day

How impressive is it that 30 new jerseys are being unveiled in a little over a month and there's been next to no leaks? I'm assuming that'll change as we get closer.

Does everyone really hate the flags? I kind of like them. Probably more to do with my geeky obsession with geography and history than my aesthetic appreciation of the jersey.
The retros are flawless though.

Yes. The Flames are neither Canada nor Alberta's team. Just doesn't make sense to me and the blue Alberta flag sticks out so badly on the jersey. There are way better ideas for a shoulder patch.

Taking a while to get to 5000

Don't understand why they don't do focus groups of STH and the like to determine the jersey design.

Because in addition to vetoing GM trades and bungling the new arena, Ken King has a unique eye for jersey design
