That Columbus anniversary logo is the best I have ever seen. There is no mistaking what it is or who it represents. It is classy and elegant. Yes, it somehow makes me think of the Civil War, which is a good thing considering the team's name. It should be news to no one that the Boston Bruins Jerseys will don altered jerseys beginning with the 2010-11 season. And by "altered," I mean "fixed." The missing stripes will return as will a much-needed shoulder patch. Will the Leafs wear these in 2010-11? Mike Burse of Bleacher Report offers up an in-depth look at how Leaf fashion directly correlates to Leaf success/failure. He also offers up this mock-up/concept (right, from LeafsHQ, see below) of what these new Jerseys might look like. As I've mentioned prior, no final decision has yet been made public. To this point, all we have is what team management has said. But for the record, Burse also says the Leafs have had these alterations in the pipeline since April 2009. The article also says that a new third jersey is in the works to replace the current one, but that won't happen until the 2011-12 season at the earliest. There's a lot of history to choose from. Howard Baldwin wants to bring hockey back to Hartford. NHL hockey. Whaler hockey. For those that have missed that iconic logo, he's trying to bring it all back. I am definitely with you regarding the Canucks' Agency numerals. They look very out of place and they are hard to read from far away. I think that once the Canucks officially settle on permanant home and away set along with a future third, we will see a return to the classic oxford block numerals. The Canucks have had classic numerals on every uniform they've had prior to the current transitionary Boston Red Sox Jerseys. Icethetics reader Gennaro Schiano writes in about the newly announced Whalers Hockey Fest which will consist of a series of outdoor MLB Jerseys to take place in February 2011. You can read more about it on Baldwin's website. Man, all this talk about changes to the league; will any of them happen? Will the Coyotes stay in Phoenix? Will Hartford get a team back? Will Winnipeg? Kansas City? What about new markets like Las Vegas? It's all kind of exciting. Hopefully Whalers Hockey Fest is a big success. I'll be keeping an eye on it. I love to see the "Whale" back in the NHL BUT does it have to be Howard Baldwin. This man made a mockery of the Pens, he's the one responsible for changing the logo/uniform in '93 after the Pens had just won Back to Back Cups in '91/'92. He created that God-Awful PIGEON logo and then managed to run the team into the ground forcing a 2nd Bankruptcy. Thank God Mario Lemieux bought the team and changed the logo back to the Skating Penguin Logo (Mario wore the Skating Penguin logo from '84-'92, until Baldwin created that Pigeon thing). Hope the NHL Jerseys logo never ever ever returns!
