You're right. That is so weird. It's not like that on their other logos It looks so out of place.

Don't love the middle, but the left and the right are improvements for sure.

Flames need to hire AC to be part of the design team in the future.

Looking forward to seeing the full setup with all the gear. Red pants, helmet and gloves would be interesting to see but I'd imagine it'll be a fully black set

Why aren't you (AC) part of the design team?

It is both hilarious and sad that a hockey fan forum (with obviously some very talented members) can come up with better designs in 1 hr, than the entire design team and executive group who approved some of these jerseys did over months.

No go.
Striping is bad and logo looks too large. The original is better.

Why? I honestly never understood the hate for the logo.

It was awesome as a shoulder patch, and is a good alternate logo.

A fire breathing horse is a great logo for the Calgary Flames in this city, and the execution of the logo is pretty good.

I think our own posters had much better versions, but this isn't something I was interested in anyway (I will be picking up a retro red).

Most of the league's are just awful though. I guess the Flames meh is perhaps a win.

Love love love a lot of these (not blasty, blasty sucks). But I think the Kings, Aves, 'Canes, Wild, and Vegas look super slick. Ducks and 'Yotes look hideously silly (I actually like the Aztec-esq logo for Arizona... I just hate the rest of it).

Flames knocked this one out of the park. Absolutely beautiful.

We went from having one of the worst jersey sets in the league to one of the best in one season.

I like the “black out” appearance these jerseys give off. Minimal striping and will look very sharp on the ice.
