It will likely be that long until Fanatics does any sort of league wide program as well, but they will.

Blasty could be tinkered with or removed in that time frame, and probably gets cut when the new building opens, if not before.

Flames have had a terrible record wearing that uniform, with it being the lazy choice for the first reverse retro program and then the alternate the last couple seasons..nevermind the dark ages of 1997-03.
The Wild and Canucks are going back to their old school looks for the 25/26 season.

The Flames have the best jersey in the league especially our roads. It would hurt if they changed them.

The Flames should keep their current home / away set because they’ll never be improved upon, IMO. Do 3rd jerseys or gimmicky #### for the other special sets to your hearts content but leave the home / away the way they are forever. Like the Habs or original teams.

I really wanna see NHL take their chances on the equivalent of City Connect jerseys MLB has been doing for a bit now. Retro is lazy. Time to innovate and look to the next ten years with retakes on colours/stylings. I'd love to see a blue flame on the logo or something different instead of the pointing to vintage for constant inspiration.

I have lots of good memories with them, but I don't really love the 04 jerseys like I do the current home and away kits. Especially the aways. Love those whites.

It's definitely a Flames jersey.

The only noticeable difference is they got rid of the waffle pattern shoulders.

I'll wait until these are out in the wild and we see if Fanatics made some weird changes that make the jersey disintegrate in cold weather or some crap before I commit to a pro version.

But I know I'll eventually get one.

Which is actually a good thing I think. Cleaner look without it.

I guess we'll see if the quality took a hit as expected.

The Athletic had a beautiful puff piece on Fanatics and how all the problems were actually Nike’s fault for changing stuff and how amazing Fanatics was in their response. Does the Times own part of Fanatics or something?

Given everything Fanatics has swallowed up probably the reverse.

I actually grew to like those dimples. The adidas jerseys were pretty great actually.

Does anyone know when the new jerseys go on sale? Alternatively, any good deals going on an Adidas Zary, Andersson or blank (would need shipping to Australia)?

Why not an Atlanta Flames Jersey alternate?
