New jerseys


The new "Rbk Edge" Toronto Maple Leaf jerseys were officially unveiled and as most reports suggested, there were few changes to the old uniforms.

The horizontal stripes along the bottom of the jerseys are gone, and there is a stripe on the cuff - I believe the cuff stripe is new.
These new jerseys are very minimalist, even when compared to the old version. Looking at the new jerseys, they are really look like the jerseys worn by the Leafs back in the time when they had the logo featured in The Blue & White's title bar. A real classic look.
I like that the Leafs will remain as one of the few teams with classic (ie. simple) uniforms. They'll continue to put the busy, Spengler Cup-esque jerseys of teams like Atlanta and Columbus to shame.
The jerseys are selling for $250 at NHL.com. Holy fucking fuck.
