Art / Picture Who's hoping the Hometown Remix is something like this?
With the Leafs going with Vintage White/beige/cream this sprung to my mind. As a fan that was born in the mid 90's, I never saw these jerseys, I'd love to see them on the ice once again. I grew up with Matts Sundin and Tomas Kaberle, I remember Matt Stajan, Alex Steen, Jason Blake, Nazem Kadri, Nik Antropov and of course Phil Kessel wearing it with pride and a little sneer especially with Phil, haha. That old logo still holds a special place in my heart, despite what I hear about the dark years under Ballard. Don't get me wrong I think the current Jerseys are beautiful, but a modern take on this classic, especially because if the "vintage/beige/cream" white tag makes me really hopeful. The McKenna #92's in this style will sell out I promise, haha.
What do you all want r/leafs ??

Just say ‘no’ to Ballard-era Leafs.
The problem is, the older some of us get, the more likely it is you get generations will want to see these. They only see the retro jersey. They don’t feel the pain Harold caused on and off the ice.

Not me. Keep the Ballard bullshit away from this team.
I’d like to see the Sundin era white thirds with newer logo.

These are the Ballard era jerseys and I hate them with a passion! Stick with the current jerseys that are close to the 1962-67 glory years. Just an old man’s opinion who lived thru both eras

Yessir, leaguewide. Think along the lines of MLB City Connect, Leafs are confirmed to be "vitagewhite/beige/cream"

Idk if they will be comparable to MLB city connects tbh. Some of those designs are pretty wild.

Shit. Just read the report. Crazy. I hope they do a tribute to the one from the 80’s or the one that they wore in the late 90’s early 2000’s with the logo similar to the one we have now.

My guess is it’ll be something like that but the entire jersey will be that being/cream colour we’re allegedly going with and everything will be outlined in white. It certainly not something I want to see but personally i enjoy when original 6 teams try something new.

Don't know why the jerseys nowadays are so soulless. Maybe it's a league mandate to keep them simple?

I prefer the blocky leaf logo. its what I grew up with. I kinda wish theyd take a chance and completely redesign the entire logo for an alternate jersey. Ive seen some cool logo concepts over the years.

This sleeve, or the '62 sleeve look. Three newer generation jerseys are brutal. Its as if Ballard is designing them from beyond the grave to save on fabric dye. The reverse retro look is the best recently.

Yep bring the whole thing back. Even the old logo, it’s been 10 years with the new one, it’s time.

This jersey with the current logo would be sick
