The Petition
To Whom It May Concern (Specifically, Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment)
We, the undersigned, are in favour of changing the Toronto Maple Leafs primary logo and uniform design. We would like to change the primary logo to the one on our alternative (3rd) uniform, replacing the current away uniform with the alternative uniform, and making a new home jersey based on the alternative uniform. There are several reasons for this, that can be found on our “about” page on LeafsLogo.com, or in the booklet presented to you, and also found in the additional info provided by signers of the petition. We understand that this change cannot be effective immediately due to the NHL’s rules on uniform changing, but would like to see such a move happen as soon as possible, to signify a new era for the Toronto Maple Leafs organization.
Signed,
The Undersigned

I have long been a fan of the original (alternate) leaf on the Leafs jersey. It has far more character and is not so rigid.
If the entire uniform is being redesigned, why add a little something more (rather than adding or removing strips). Put some none symmetrical black into the design. It would add another depth to their appearance. Perhaps another depth to their play as appearance can alter a person’s outward attitude!
I’m a Ranger fan, but even I can admit that the Leafs’ thirds are brilliant and beautiful to behold. The others are too plain and at the very least need added striping.
Born in the seventies, loving hockey, rooting for the Leafs after every losing season. I am fet up with this bland looking logo that represent nothing but a symbol of losing. There is no winning experience with the current logo. All the Leafs clothing/merch I own has the third jersey logo which represents tradition and stanley cups. Who is the marketing genius who keeps this logo alive. Since the seventies this logo has done nothing for us. All of the key players in the NHL like Sid, Ovechekin, Toews and Kane they grew up seeing the Leafs as a winningless club. I wouldn’t be a bit intimidated by this logo at all for my association with looking at there losing history. No coincidence that they stopped winning cups. Come on guys what is the fear of putting that third jersey Leaf on the Home & Aways. With blandest symbol in the NHL who takes us seriously anymore. Learn from the Red wings, Canadiens and Penguins and don’t mess with a winning crest.
Thank You.
Please change to the third jersey format for the home and away jersey’s. Such a nice jersey, so classy and time-less!
Just wasting some free time on Digg and I found your article . Not typically what I like to learn about, but it was definitely worth my time. Thanks.
bring back the 3rds as our permanent jersey. it would rival the hawks for the nicest sweater in the NHL. The current jersey is boring, I will never buy a jersey with the current leaf
Why not have the third jersey logo on all 3 and add a little something more. 2 white stripes at the bottom and maybe a leaf with a shadowed CN tower in the background. After all this is TORONTO’S team.
A team based on tradition should have a traditional logo and jersey!
Detroit, New York, Boston, Montreal, and Chicago all have close to their original jerseys and logos.
The Leafs’ current logo signifies 40+ years of losing! I say no more!
