Game Schedule - Reverse Retro & St. Pats

[Nineteen67]

If they want to try reverse, using the maple leafs colour scheme......I hate even say it, but.......try the white pants and gloves again.....I’ll duck, now.

 

[Confucius]

I like the colour scheme blue and grey but I don't like the Ballard Maple Leaf.

I like the colour scheme blue and grey but I don't like the Ballard Maple Leaf.

At least it's a jersey they are only wearing part time, since this was their full time logo during the Ballard era.

 

[Westlander]

I could have lived with those jerseys if the trim was white and not grey.

The grey was an abomination. Just awful.

Yes the RR is nice as a hoody design but not a jersey.

They should have gone with cream/ivory trim which would have given a nice retro look.

 

[Once]

The grey is hideous. Should be white or as another poster suggested, a cream colour similar to what Detroit had a few years back at the winter classic.

 

[LeafsNation75]

Did anyone notice the Leafs made changes to the thickness of the numbers on their retro jerseys.

Here they are last Saturday against Edmonton.

Here they are 1 week later against Vancouver.

Whenever I Google “thick” I usually find something else...

 

[Sniper99]

I disagree, those jerseys last night were ugly and no one in their right mind will buy one.

Easiest $150 ever saved. $250 if you want a name and number on the back. Grey and Blue? sorry we're not the Detroit Lions

 

[KapG]

The grey and blue is absolutely horrible

 

[Judas Tavares]

Seeing a lot of the RR jerseys in action of late have left me disappointed they missed the mark. A lot of them are looking gorgeous when you see them in action as opposed to just a release photo. Was hoping ours would follow suit. It did not.

Like even the Blasty Flames (which should have been a red or white jersey, rather than a cheaper version of the original, Lady Liberty Rangers is in that same boat for me as well) looked really good in action last night.

You're right, you can't even see the logo and it's hard to see the numbers and read the names on the back.

 

[Mess]

Agreed

Even on my big screen 4K TV when the play is from a distance you have to recognize the players by their skating style as you can barely make out their #'s and names.

I can't imagine a lot of fans wanting to run out and buy these jerseys.

 

[wingman75]

I like'em. I was having 80's flashbacks on the 31 (font) on Andersens arm to old Kenny Wregget!

I do wonder if they should have gone with a baby blue a-la the Argos instead of the darker grey. Maybe they tried it and it was worse.

Anyway, for 6 games or whatever it is, I like it... especially if they are going to play like that when wearing them.

They look better as still photos than in game action, where there's not enough contrast between the blue and the grey.

I'm so imprinted to the Toronto Maple Leafs brand that I usually find every variation beautiful and need to suppress an impulse to own it. I've got to say these blue-grey sweaters are the least beautiful.

I think it's the opposite and they look in game action and worse in still photos.

Anyone know exactly what this is? I notice this thing on all the jerseys they wear.

I think it's the embedded transponder that generates real time statistics.

Ah okay thanks. I thought only the Leafs had it and some kind of mic/listening device used by Amazon Prime "All or Nothing" docuseries coming out later this year.

An aside: We're less than 10 years away from an avalanche of smear job docs that use legally recorded private conversations obtained under the insanely permissive Terms and Conditions we all agree to without hesitation.

I never would have noticed that if @CanadasTeam asked what it was.

I've always spotted it every single time but somehow only on Leafs players
