Flames, Jets unveil Heritage Classic jerseys

The Calgary Flames are going to party like it's 1989 in their Heritage Classic jerseys, and the Winnipeg Jets are throwing back to their World Hockey Association days.
The design for Calgary's jersey for the game on Oct. 26 at Mosaic Stadium in Regina, Saskatchewan, features lettering, numbering and colors that replicate the Flames' 1989 uniform. Calgary won its only Stanley Cup championship in 1989.
The Jets' colorway is the same as it was in the 1970s when they were in the WHA. The striping on the sleeves and hem also matches that of the old sweater. Winnipeg joined the NHL in the 1979-80 season.
