Those are actually pretty nice one of the better ones so far.
San Jose looked terrible.

Beautiful jerseys. If you follow that Twitter thread you can see Dube, Ras, and Weegar in them in one of the comments.

Not to derail, but a quick question as an aside: is 'queer' an acceptable word to use? (I thought it was deemed as derogatory)
Also, yes, those jerseys are sharp

NHL Marketing at it's finest.

I loved the Lunar New Year night ones, but these are just as good. Awesome job.

It is acceptable (it’s the Q in LGBTQ) and it’s history is actually worth looking up as the effort to reclaim the word from being derogatory into something more positive and affirming is pretty cool (to me at least).
It’s going to depend on use, like a lot of words obviously. I wouldn’t call someone “a queer” nor would I label someone as queer in place of asking how they identify (if for whatever reason that was something you needed to know or put a label on).
Either way, nice of you to ask about it.

Wish they'd gone with rainbow colours on the collar and the shoulder patches too, but the logo and the numbers are awesome. Would look great on a black jersey too.

I hope they keep that logo and make it available on just regular tee-shirts and the like.

On second look, couldn't they have done a waist stripe in Flames or pride colors? It seems kind of empty like a practice jersey.
Yes, I know it's a warmup jersey.
And they could have at least ironed Andersson's...

As others have said, it'd be great if we could buy these (same with the indigenous designs). I prefer both of them to the reverse retro and think they would sell well, and it'd be nice if some proceeds were to go to local LGBTQIA2S+/indigenous support charities. I imagine it would be a nice feeling for people from those communities to see people walking around town wearing them in support.

I quite like them actually. It's something different from the bolder modernistic designs out there. Homey...

Who knows, maybe I'm on an island. I am hardly a fashion plate, so it wouldn't be the first time that my sense of style is lacking!

I don’t love the entire jersey (bit plain?) but the Flaming C is awesome. Love what they put into it - I think Darryl mentioned it’s a local artist that did the work on it too? Wonderful.
