^^^ Which is why the Flames would be smart to unveil their new retros before the China trip. I bet they'd sell really well.

They could be the unofficial official NHL team of China.

If the Flames don't have a red and yellow jersey ready to wear and sell in China they have missed a great marketing opportunity.

It's the Flames.

They're probably going to botch this unveiling and do it on a random weekday in November.

Some graphic designers (kp8 and s7) have mocked up some nhl 'colour rush' jerseys.

I’ve said it before but addidng the red outline on the white C doesn’t look good to me. White C with a single yellow outline is perfect.

The blues jersey looks excellent. Calgary should take a page out of their book. It’s so obvious what should be done

100% guaranteed they never even thought of this connection, and despite bringing back the retro this year they will not plan to bring them to China.

What are the chances they screw up the retro's by putting the flags on the shoulders?

January 4, the day before they wear them for a 1pm Eastern start against the Flyers.

I like this set. Keeps the retro concept but introduces a bit of black to make them modern.

I also like the jersey lettering.

Why is black modern? Black is sooooo 90's.

Or get that it is hideously ugly. I can see a bunch of Chinese people saying "aww, look, team McDonald's!"

I don't mind that either. Keeps the yellow to a small accent which is ok.
