I picked one of these hats up today, now I just need to get my jersey lettered and I'll be rocking a full kit at the Dome for some of the games this year!

I went into Fanattic at North Hill and bought one of these hats today. Hated the old black jerseys at the time, but they’re kind of cool now as part of our history. I think it would be cool to bring the black jersey back as a retro at some point, but I also think the pedestal jersey would be a cool retro (similar to how the coyotes brought their original kachina jerseys back).
I asked the guy working when the Flames would release the heritage classic jerseys. He said mid September, and that they will be the White retro, however they will have some slight modern updates. He said this was told to him from the person who is oversees the design of jerseys for the Flames. Also, to nobody’s surprise, the Heritage classic jerseys will become the full time away jersey in 2020 along with the current 3rd taking over as home jersey.

This was the best re-colouring I came up with without altering Blasty too much. Re-designing the fire is a givin', but so far this was the best balance I could find with the palette

I just hope we end up with more jerseys in the coming years.
Ol' Blasty gets used once for a retro night? Awesome.
Pedestal jersey comes in for "90s Rivalry" game against Vancouver with them wearing their 90s skate jersey? Fantastic.
Retro full time away and home? Definitely.

Flames and Sabres going back to original colors in the same season, is this real life?

So you're saying they built a giant saddle-shaped arena in a city famous for its rodeo, which literally takes place on the same property, and has from Day 1 been called 'the Saddledome', without realizing it would look like a saddle?

I would have assumed Buffalo was going to botch it, but with who they have there rn I'm actually pretty pumped to see what they do.
Can't wait until teams have shed the 90s and the RBK Edge stink they've gathered over the years so we can get back to seeing cool jerseys around the NHL from the rest of the clubs. Less 'finally' and more 'wow!'
The Flames could have some absolutely awesome 3rd jerseys

It was originally going to be called the Olympic Coliseum.

I have always felt that this logo would look much better without the teeth.

Iiiiiiinteresting.
I read it, assumed it was going to look strange... but then saw it like where you're going.
Adjusting the eyes and chin/mouth would do wonders for the aggressiveness of this logo. More of a 'snorting before charging' than the 'dopey party trick donkey' face that he has now

That logo made me a Flames fan. I HATED the Red/Yellow color scheme of the 80s and still do to be honest.

I am trying to see what you are describing, and I can't even do so deliberately. I'm sufficiently convinced that this is something that you and only you are imagining.

Exactly. This was a quick mock-up in which I shortened the snout while eliminating the dumb smiley-teeth, but I believe there is an awesome logo to be found in there somewhere with some small adjustments.
