New Logo and Uniform potentially in 2016/17

[bustaheims]

It does look sparse with the current logo, which is why I think it'll be one of the old fancy leafs.

I still love the collar and laces.

I like the collar and the laces, but without something on the logo, it looks like a cheap copyright avoiding knockoff.

 

[bustaheims]

May I suggest Impact?

Which we all know is just a knock-off of Helvetica Inserat, am I right?

Ahh, Impact . . . I remember when it was everywhere, until it was replaced by distressed typefaces.

I wonder if we see the full team name replaced with just TML inside the Leaf somehow. But you definitely just can't have a solid shape of the Leaf like that with nothing else inside.

There are 2 things that have been constant since the team became the Maple Leafs - the logo has always been a Leaf, and the name has always been printed within that leaf. I doubt they'll change either of those now. I expect it to be more of an evolution of the logo than anything else.

Not the current logo, no. It does suggest knockoff, as busta mentioned.

But a fancier leaf? A leaf with tasteful dimensions to it -- embossed? beveled? outlined?

Yeah, if they're ditching the words it'd have to be a more filled-in version of the 64-67 logo, like that one.

I could definitely see an offshoot of something like this:

Although it's hard to say. I love the vintage 1938-1966 (years?) logo though...

Who knows really. I think the new logo shouldn't be completely new though. I mean how much have Chicago, Rags, Bruins, Canadiens, Wings changed their logos? Were they not all more or less the same? (I legitimately don't know).

I like that Leaf quoted above a lot... I just don't know if i could ever warm up to ditching the letters.

I think I'm starting to get an idea of what other people feel when they read my posts.

Ohhh...I can't let this one go...

Resentful and incensed?

The current shoulder leaf is pretty close (but too veiny) to what I'm thinking of.

Easy to roll out a St. Pat's jersey with a whimsically tilted clover on that one day too.

Just for the record, a joke at my expense doesn't really sting if I make the joke first.

 

[Bonsixx]

Honestly, I think my favourite Leafs jersey is the current third one. Looks sharp as hell.

Was really hoping for more takers on this one...it's not as funny if Bullfrog and I are the only ones that jumped on the opportunity...I'm disappointed.

Some jokes can only be taken so far. You should know that from your life experience, Frank.

I find I can never tell whether or not I like a jersey design until I see it thrown on the ice at the ACC.  Then I just know.

potential new Leaf logo?

I like the Leaf obviously but not without the lettering inside.

Thank god.

In the link Lama posted, I actually kind of like what they have on the arena screen as a potential new logo. Different, yes and maybe a bit soccer-y but I like it.
