The Calgary Flames have unveiled the Hometown Remix, a new uniform built around the Scotiabank Saddledome, the arena that has been the team's home since 1983 and will stop being home ice when it closes in 2027.
The "88 Gold" front crest carries the arena's ceiling texture. The sleeve striping takes the shape of its windows, and the exterior hem follows its roofline. The hem also shows 1983, the year the building opened, and 2027, the year it closes, both rendered in the texture of its shutters.
Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation president and CEO Robert Hayes called the Saddledome one of the most identifiable things in Calgary. NHL senior executive vice president Brian Jennings said the Hometown Remix line is meant to reflect each team's city and fans.
The line includes on-ice Authentic Pro and Premium jerseys, plus headwear, hoodies, tees, fleece and other outerwear.
The Flames debut the jersey against the Anaheim Ducks on Nov. 6, and wear it eight more times this season: Nov. 8, Nov. 11, Dec. 3, Dec. 5, Dec. 8, Jan. 12, Jan. 14 and Jan. 16.
