Toronto Maple Leafs new logo
 
So....the new logo is being revealed in about 20 minutes.

Supposed to be a 'significant' change, according to the news.

Thoughts? Comments?

Not exactly 21st century is it.

To not bad. The previous one was definitely due an update.

And iced hockey is pretty good to watch, way better than the kicking ball, diving and crying championships.

Yes.

An ugly game with 3 halves.

All about the goal tender.

If they developed Hockey in Canada like they do in Europe to be about angles, hand skills and moving the puck it might be more interesting.

Instead we get physical brutes trained to smash into people at speed.

That's why despite Canada producing more hockey players than Europe combined it has such a poor record at a junior level.

Beer League Iced Hockey is palatable.

A mod should really close this thread. Iced Hockey is not pub banter at all.

True, but now they've eliminated fighting and checking from almost everywhere except the NHL it'll change.

Remember when soccer was all about hoofing it upfield, none of this continental fancy Dan rubbish?

So what do you think of the logo?

So what sport/pastime do you regard as 21st century?

Indifferent.

If I was able to get tickets for the leafs and beer was $7 or $8 versus $18 then it might mean something to me.

Really...?U20
It is an even sorrier sight at the Olympics.
Go watch a pro game at ice level [second mortgage available for tickets]. It is lots of things, including incomprehensible if you are not a fan, but dull it is not.
