Not sold on Flyers gold with orange uniforms

National Hockey League

Washington Capitals @ Philadelphia Flyers: December 21, 2016

Every time I see these fiftieth anniversary Philadelphia Flyers uniforms, the gold and orange just does not seem to work. It is off-putting.

I would prefer the classic and very fine Philadelphia Flyers uniforms from the 1970s, over anything at all that would remind one of the Vancouver or Philadelphia Blazers.

This uniform is about as appealing as putting mustard on mandarin oranges. Did a professional really come up with the initial design, or was it the whim of someone in management? But just my opinion.
