Go with Yellow or Purple maybe.
I was hoping they'd go with a similar colour scheme as the Seahawks, but maybe they thought it was too similar to the Canucks. Do agree with not liking them go with red white and black, but who knows, maybe its just a placeholder

They find a lot of gems in Washington so they could put a crown with jewels as their logo.

I think this would present a Canadian broadcasting issue: with three Canadian teams in the Pacific division it makes for very easily scheduled late-matchups for the Saturday HNIC double-header. With this move, as the only two teams from the Central Division to play in the mountain time zone Calgary and Edmonton would be more difficult to slot into the 10:00 ET broadcasting time slot.

I think moving Arizona to the Central Division is the right move.

They want to design something that people will buy.

I want to clarify. Yellow OR purple. Not yellow AND purple.
Have some creativity, but not that much creativity.

I once bought a Flyers cap just because it was the only orange cap available. I also bought a purple LA Kings cap, since there was no other option.

I don't even like purple, but please, wont someone make a purple jersey?
There's a clear opening now that LA jumped ship. And I can't even tell if Colorado's is red or purple.

It's way too hard to try and predict what the roster will even look like for Calgary, let alone who to protect.

I think so. Pending UFA that year, we could very well see the Engelland 2.0.

We might have to add a prospect and a pick depending on the quality of the prospect for them to take Ryan. Otherwise, the Flames might be screwed.

Was hoping for Sonics colors. Green and yellow like the mock-up in TSN.
