Gothamite Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Outstanding. And yeah, "Polar Bears" is a fine minor-league name. So long as they don't end it with a z. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnPheitseog Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Manitoba Moose wearing special "Polar Bear" jerseys tonight.What they should be wearing for primaries (with the main logo, obviously), IMO Since TNSE was considering Bears/Polar Bears as a team name before they picked the Jets, we do wonder if this is what they're supposed to look.I was at the other Marlies-Moose game and I was pleasantly surprised to see the Marlies with their alt and the Moose with their road uniforms.Loved the Marlies alt, but that style doesn't work for the Leafs.I'm going to go ahead and call that jersey their primary, because I dont think they've worn the white version of their blue aways at all the season. On the jersey, I love it so much and I think it works for both the marines and leafs and, at yhe very least, look forward to a blue version for the marlies Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgo Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 "Polar Bearsz" to attract the local Polish community.I think there are more people with Ukrainian ancestry here than Polish.As for a blue version of the Marlies throwback, I don't think it looks as nice as the white uniform, based on the Ballard-era Leafs. Just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianLion Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I actually wouldnt have minded "Polar Bears" since it's actually indicative of a species in the area and wasnt just thrown in because "winter."Then again, it might have led to endless "pedo bear" references so perhaps it was for the best.

The_Admiral Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 I actually wouldnt have minded "Polar Bears" since it's actually indicative of a species in the area and wasnt just thrown in because "winter." "Area" is stretching it. Churchill (the polar bear town) is about 625 miles north of Winnipeg. 625 miles south places you around Lincoln, Nebraska; may as well call them the Winnipeg Cornhuskers if that's your bar. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittSmith_95 Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I don't care what anyone says. That Polar Bear face is an amazing logo... and works better with those colours by far compared to the Moose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uniguy22 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 I don't think so. I'm more and more starting to believe this will be the new logo. It's very strange that they say Maple Leaf and not Leafs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 That won't work as a crest. So when they said new logo, maybe they didn't specify new primary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jer15 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 That logo is all over the season tickets and the arena. Every year the Leafs have a sort of theme they use. Usually their social media/website and the on screen graphics in the arena all kind of fall into that theme. This year it has been the logo without text.Last year I recall it being bold fonts and lots of black added. in 2013-14 it was all about "the passion that unites us all" and they added a lot effects that made the logo look like it was coming forward from an explosion and the players having "swooping" lines behind them.Honestly, I think that's all that the last picture is, the yearly refreshed look for marketing GTA United(USA) 2015 + 2016 USA Champions/Toronto Maroons (ULL)2014, 2015 + 2022 Gait Cup Champions/Toronto Northmen (TNFF) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very strange that they say Maple Leaf and not Leafs. the way the Toronto Maple Leafs is grammatically correct is because of this/ The full name is the Toronto Maple Leaf Hockey Club, and when you pluralize a proper noun you just add a s, rather than change spelling Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnPheitseog Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 It makes so much sense if the Leafs are just dropping the word mark. A blank leaf can just be scaled from a small to large size without losing anything(like what seems to be the trend with twitter and the like).Not to mention, if we can take tips from their AHL marlies, the marlies have moved to the third logo and jersey at home almost exclusively, which also does not contain a wordmark like the primary doesjust speculation, but Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Point1 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 If they don't use that wordless Leaf as their logo next year I'll be shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
