[News] Oilers to host Flames in 2023 Heritage Classic at Commonwealth

[PepsiFree]

Calgary’s is better on account of it being a Flames jersey, which is always better than an Oilers jersey, but otherwise it’s a pretty horrible effort. Super boring.

[Toonage]

This whole Heritage Classic feels uninspired. Going through the motions.

That Oilers uni is so ugly it's perfect for them

[FormerPresJamesTaylor]

Pretty bland, I like the older style white. I'll buy one but not blown away

One huge tear drop in the middle. Very fitting.

They both look good.

Not sure about the natural pants for the Oilers.

Also lol at the description of the Oilers jersey

"aged embellishment"

Yep.

Turns out those hoodies weren't far off at all except for the sleeve stripes

Color of the sh*t that runs down their pants that they think doesn't stink

I actually like the "leather look" pants and gloves.

In general I do too. Maybe it needs to be "darker leather" to match up better with the rest of the outfit.

Would have been cool to see a draft of all the colorways.

100% agree.

The lighter brown doesn't blend well with the rest and it makes the pants and gloves look cheap.

Flames' jersey looks way better. Agreed that the brown on the Oilers jersey should be darker.

[Robbob]

Those pants are bad. Oilers get up looks like they grabbed a bunch of stuff from a salvation army store in the 80s (or current day Edmonton). Might as well have sported Cooperalls, although that is probably better left for a Flyers Heritage classic game.

"aged embellishments and textiles". I wish they used actual vintage materials so the players could feel like the '50s and '60s. It would be like George Costanza making the Yankees wear cotton uniforms. Even funnier would be making them use vintage wood sticks and the goalies with the small leather pads that soak up moisture, a real Heritage Classic, lol.

Yep.

"Aged embellishment" can also describe how McAvi looks like he's in his 70s.

One thing I hate - why the hell is the captain C so high on the Oilers jersey.

Look at all this nice blue space right here...nah lets put the C on top where it has to overlap on 3 different colors.

Just stupid.

[_Q_]

I've been curious what a Flames jersey in the style of the old stampeders look would look like. I like it a lot.
