Just the material, it's the same design and the Adidas logo is missing because it's likely a Fanattic version

That Canucks jersey is so ugly and it makes me happy.

It will be interesting to see what the gradient looks like on the real Canucks' jersey. The preview image doesn't look like there's a gradient at all, but they may have cropped it just so any remnant of green is cut off.

Looch sent out a tweet saying #Blasty, not sure if he's privy to the jerseys but he's excited too!

People complained about large black block letters on a red background. Not enough contrast.

Shouldn’t be any issue with contrast of black letters on a white jersey. Many teams have black lettering on their white jerseys right now.

That is the most gruesome, hideous thing I've seen to be put forth as a jersey.

It pleases me that the Flames two biggest rivals have awful, awful jerseys and have for almost their entire existence.

The canucks skate jersey is beautiful and that’s why they promptly buried it and have largely ignored it ever since.

I can see why the Flames silks drew the biggest reaction.

So far an ant could crawl over the bar.

The only good thing about that Canucks jersey is that they finally got with the program and outlined the orca logo in green. Looks cool. Shoulda done that a decade ago

I like the Coyotes jersey. Took a chance and I think it works but may have been a big better switching out the Coyote head for the full Kachina logo.

Maybe I’m just getting old but to me these are all awful. I’m kinda dreading what the Flames do honestly. We finally got decent uniforms again and I don’t really want to relive the 98 Flames team again

It's just for fun, it's about time we got a bunch of new one off jerseys.

With having some of the worst jerseys for the past 12 or so years it's nice to have another option.

I get it and I know its all in fun. Having said that I'm a traditionalist and I accept it. I'd prefer the Flames treat their uniforms more like the Canadiens deal with theirs. The primary uniforms are the brand and basically never change. Play with a third jersey for marketing reasons that has historical significance. Honestly I've never been a Blasty fan. I associate that jersey and the pedestal abominations with the Young Guns era.....Nothing I really want to celebrate.

So... goofy jerseys are only permitted if you made a goofy jersey 80+ years ago? In which case you can release multiple ridiculous jerseys while remaining traditionalist?
