Matt Coronato had to keep the Hometown Remix jerseys a secret much longer than you might think.

In September’s NHL media day in Las Vegas, Coronato did a bunch of promotional material for the league and among that was a reveal of the Flames’ Hometown Remix jerseys. Once the jerseys were out there on Nov. 2, the video of his reaction a couple of months ago was made public.

What’s surprising about this reveal is that no one but Coronato really knew what the Flames’ jerseys looked like until the team was able to reveal them.

Coronato said:

“They didn’t really let me take any pictures or anything so I, like, told the guys what it looked like but I didn’t explain it great. It was funny actually, I didn’t see it until I walked in that room and I didn’t get to show anyone. So I told the guys it looked good but we all kind of had to wait and see.”

When the Flames did their team media day, some of their other alternate jerseys and new merch were under wraps until they were announced later. Even the team didn’t do any promo on that day with the new threads.

Coronato said:

“We didn’t see them until maybe a week ago when they posted it on Instagram. We had practiced with the gloves and the pants to break it in so we saw like the sparklies and stuff but we didn’t know until in person.”

When it came down to it, the rest of the team knew they’d see them eventually, so they didn’t pester 27 too much for more information on them, but he did happen to share one of his favourites of the season.

He said:

“I actually love our black C jerseys that we wore once. We’re wearing them again, I think. Those are awesome. So it’s a little bit exciting, right, when you get to wear something different. I feel like it’s fun for us.”

Matt Coronato has done well in the new jerseys with the game winning goal in overtime on Sunday night against the Philadelphia Flyers the last time they wore them. The Flames will wear them against the New York Rangers for the third game in a row then they will take a break from the design until the first week of December. Including Wednesday night, seven games remain in these season-exclusive jerseys.
