Could be nothing. But could be something.

The only thing odd with that picture is that they are being generous with Phil's physique.

The jersey will be almost identical to what we have now. And there will be flag patches. Ken King loves those patches.

Well teams are releasing what appears to be "teasers", and FWIW black flaming C is still there:

I like the Black C.

We'll probably end up with Retro's as a third in the following season.

That black C is so prominent around the Dome, and has been since 2004, I'm not surprised it's returning. Now if they can just simplify the overall design...

Adidas Hockey is retweeting similar images from all teams. Of note, it looks like the Wild have added horizontal striping across the chest.

Maybe it's a switcharoo. Bait us with the black logo, unveil the retro logo. There's hope.

I'm so scared they're going to screw this up. Although full retro is my preference I'm not against keeping some black, but I have zero confidence that they'll make it look good

Not with this org. Damn it, I was certain they'd make a good decision here for once.

Glad I bought a retro when they were on sale, no reason to buy ANOTHER one of these same jerseys.

Maybe they'll wait for a new building to unveil the retros as the full time uniforms.

It surprises me how often pro sports teams are out of touch or just don't care what their fan bases want to see as it relates to team jerseys.

I'm a lifetime San Diego Chargers fan and for years we've been begging for the old powder blues to come back as the primary jersey but ownership just will not do it.

Why not give your fans what they want and make them happy?

For the purposes of sales, I'd have thought they would want a very noticeable change from the current. We'll see, I guess.
