The Flames have always had the best jersey. That became even more pronounced when the Oilers decided that "pylon" was a good colour.

Absolutely not. The Flames' Reebok Edge jerseys were, in my opinion, the second-worst in the NHL for the entirety of their existence, only ahead of Colorado's.

Oh, well if you say so, who is anyone to argue?

Well, you were the first one to make such an assertion (that the Flames' have always been better than the Oilers')... am I not well within my rights to try to counter that?

The original Oilers Edge jersey was every bit as bad as Colorado's.

The first year Islanders, Panthers, Avalanche, Sabres and Oilers are all on the bottom rung for Edge jerseys.

Flames are one step above those ones, unfortunately we're one of the only teams to be stuck with our terrible sweaters for so long.

Of the teams that stuck with the original Edge designs for the whole decade, I'd put Ottawa and Washington behind the Flames too.

A Fata X2 if you will.

I thought Vancouver would have at least got rid of the city name above their logo.

Actually, in my opinion, the Ottawa Senators jerseys, were the second worst, only behind, Colorado's and ahead, of Calgary
