I just can't see Winnipeg (as the home team) not wanting to cash in on the white out with another white retro jersey. However, if the NHL's goal is to sell more merch, I would agree a white Flames and blue Jets makes sense.

Actually, I noticed that Fan Attic (and Sport Chek) are now carrying Adidas white retro jerseys circa 1989:

Those are good looking. It'd be cool if they use them. Otherwise wouldn't consider buying them as it's a jersey foul

You do realize that the jets first joined the nhl in 1979; and took a little break before returning.

I believe you are referring to the Coyotes. The Jets have been a playing franchise since 1999-00 season.

They are great fans...think they will really appreciate the game.

Did you watch that team? They may have had games on the NHL schedule, but they were god damned awful—a hundred times worse than even the NHL Jets.

I think if the objective is to sell shiploads of Flames jerseys, a new design is the surest route. Perhaps white, but some sort of update on the original.

I agree the Flames will probably wear a white jersey for this game however there is no reason why the game couldn't be Red vs. Blue

Winnipeg should wear Atlanta Thrashers and Calgary should wear Atlanta Flames to honour their Georgia heritage.

That would actually be pretty awesome; mostly because the Atlanta Flames jersey is a work of art.

The logo on the promo tweet has been used for exactly one jersey: the one on the top of this picture.



I'm usually opposed to getting jerseys worn by stars but I'd have a hard time not getting a Gaudreau of that vintage.

Oh my sweet Jeebus. If Flames release retro whites for that game, "Shut up and take my money" will ensue.

I hope they use the same ones form 2011 so I can wear it again for the first time in 9 years.

Kind of a useless purchase in hindsight.

There were some yers when the jets v1 had a pretty could team, just not quite good enough to get past both calagary and Edmonton in successive playoff rounds
