For the record, I really like both.
Are these the same posters? I seriously doubt it. I think both are lame.

Can any Oilers fans actually claim, with a straight face, that their jersey/logo are nicer than the Flames jersey/logo?

A lot of people (myself included) grew up with the Kachina jersey being the "new" jersey. It really hammers it into the heart. It's why to this day I still think the (Florida) Panthers and Toronto Raptors have some of the coolest logos out there.

I had a Panthers lunch box and some Raptors shorts and t-shirts as a kid.

I think JFresh gets it right with this tweet.

Some of these former designs have become beloved as a product of nostalgia and appreciation for the creativity.
An entire industry could be sustained just off of the nostalgia of millennials.

Geez, I'd completely forgotten that point. The 2003-2004 red was a return to red after three years of horse head black as the away jersey

I teach 7th and 8th grade and the fashion the kids are wearing these days is EXACTLY what I was wearing to high school in the late 90s. Had like three students yesterday in the white t-shirt, baggy, thrift-store flannel button up look. Doc Martens are making a massive comeback too.

Stumbled upon this on ig. Credit to the user in the pic. Blasty pedestal would make an awesome reverse retro

And the white Cowboys looks pretty good too

There is absolutely no reason to add black striping or shoulder patches to the home and away jerseys. Yuck.

I've always thought a white version of the blasty jersey would look sharp. I feel like that would have been more in the spirit of the "reverse" part of "reverse retro" last year.

It does look sharp, but Blasty had to be on a black jersey if they wanted it back as a third. Very rare to have a white alternate jersey

I’d love a white alternate. It would give us a chance to see the other team’s coloured uniforms in person which would be cool.

I’ve always thought they should wear whites at home until the new year and switch to the darks after for playoff runs. Let the fans see all the jerseys.

It would seem more appropriate to have a red heritage jersey with a white cowboy hat.

I don't really like any of those - don't love the Flames in a Calgary Cowboys jersey either.

Do we know when the Flames are releasing the new Blasty and/or new Reverse Retro jerseys yet?
