  1. Mods removed the original post, so I removed the first image to avoid confusion with it being a repost. Here’s the original post as it was written:

    *This is the leaked picture of the scoreboard that was posted by /u/tSchab3r earlier today [via @TomGazzola on Twitter today.](https://twitter.com/TomGazzola/status/1699533113746153698?t=8v5drgBPkBUZd5_kC4agzQ&s=19) While not necessarily a final confirmation of the colours the Flames will be wearing (I believe that the score board for the Flames’ side was intentionally made black to avoid confusion with the Oilers’ ticker), [@MikeGould does confirm the emblem does largely match with what the Flames’ will be wearing…](https://twitter.com/miketgould/status/1699538211209679178?t=DnvM4JU5nh9sOrHj-SiXDA&s=19)*

    *Per Mike Gould: “The Flames’ 2023 Heritage Classic logo. The C, the “Calgary Flames” wordmark, and the smaller circle will all be on the jersey. (The bigger circle with the pattern will not).”*

    *Using this information and the research from my previous post [(see here)] (https://www.reddit.com/r/CalgaryFlames/comments/102eru1/the_heritage_classic_jersey_has_already_been/) I do think I have found a match in the above jersey, which was first worn by the Calgary Stampeders – the hockey team, not the football one – which played from 1938-1972. Archival images suggest this uniform was worn during their latter years, being circa the 1950’s to 1960’s.*

    *While this isn’t a hard confirmation, the similarities in the crest makes this the closest match to any previous incarnation of a Calgary-based hockey team. According to @AliMurji1, [we should expect an official reveal within the month,](https://twitter.com/AliMurji1/status/1699537345903743457?t=67PVdQSNs1AqlRsy9k77Dg&s=19) meaning we should know shortly what the final design will be.*
