I love the way Flames retros look on the ice, but I wouldn't prefer to wear them over the regular Jersey in general - the colors are a bit too orange.

Huh? Ryan McDonagh is the Rangers' #1 defenseman and a top D in the league. He and Lundqvist are the face of that team's success the past handful of years.

He's all right but if he's the face of your franchise I wouldn't be expecting a Stanley Cup any time soon.

Well no, obviously not. Their roster is incredibly mediocre.

They were close a few years back but Lundqvist may be on the decline and they have some solid talent but nothing exceptional. Kind of a team that may be stuck in neutral.

Well they appear to be starting a rebuild, so who knows.

They are a bit more talented but they kind of remind me of the Canucks, going no where.

The current primary home jersey, retro red, and 3rd jersey are all the exact same red. Put your jerseys next to each other if you don't believe me.

Very true, however the ridiculous amount of mustard yellow on the retro's makes the red look more orange than red.

I was shocked that this is true until I tried it.

I still think the 04's are the nicest of all the Jersey's.

Since the New RBK material came in the Piping has just been terrible.
