Are you a fan of the Canadian and Alberta flags on the Flames jerseys?

They need to replace those patches with the Flaming Cow/bull/whatever it is.

After 6 years or so of seeing those jerseys, the patches still don't look right.

I agree that they should go retro, it would be cool since they are competitive again.

It's ok, but i'm not big on those jerseys to start with.

PLEEAAAASE bring back the 80's jerseys. The whites in particular look really, really good.

Not a big fan of it. I mean, the Canadian flag works because it's red and all, but I think a blue patch on a red-based jersey looks kind of out of place and awkward. It was done in good faith, so I can respect that.

I know I'm in the minority, but I really like the flags. I know they really don't have a place on the jerseys, but I appreciate that they're there to represent our province or country.


Easily. That bright red, those red helmets, that white C, oh man.

You know what's funny? The red is actually the same on the throwbacks as they are the regular jerseys. It's the yellow and black that make it look different. I didn't believe it either until I put the reds next to each other on the two jerseys.

I think they look good the Canadian flag looks better but the Alberta one can stay since they're the team that's not disgracing Alberta Hockey.

I like the vibe of a bunch of random regalia and patches, sort of militant. I never looked at what they were though :laugh:

I think it's good, I always notice them and wish more teams would do something like that.

I don't like them. It's not like they're Alberta's "national team" and they don't match their team colors.

Makes an otherwise good looking jersey look mickey mouse. It just sticks out way too much

I've never understood why they have the flag of Alberta there. There's another team in Alberta. Would San Jose, Anaheim or LA do something related to California? Would the Panthers or Lightning do something related to Florida? Columbus and Arizona/Phoenix (since they were mentioned) are different since they're the only teams in their state. The Flames one just seems poorly thought out.

Predators have the Tennessee state flag in it's shoulder patch and alternative logo.

Sorry that has nothing to do with dragonball as some have said.

For the Flames It's fine because they represent part of Alberta but Canadian flag may be a bit overboard but it's not used in a disrespectful way.
