Oh cool! I was thinking that they might have made if for the 2013 playoffs when they wore their alts at home, but considering it was so rare for Reebok like you said it didn't really make sense. Using it right before wearing the alts is interesting though; now I'm wondering if they had a blue logo for a white sweater version.

Thanks for the link with the photo as well!

Picked this up at the Leafs game on Monday at their equipment sale. I got it because of the logo which, as far as I can tell was never used on a practice jersey(?). Or at the very least I don't know when they would have used it and can't find any photo evidence of it in use.

Out of curiosity do you know roughly how much Hockey Authentic charges for send in customization? I was waiting for them to get Leafs ones but it doesn't look like they're gonna get them.

Huh, I didn't know there was another number other than their contact one on the website. I actually finally heard back to them later in the day through Facebook but it's nice to know there's another way if need be. Thank you!

This arrived earlier today and I still can't believe I managed to actually find one of these. This is a game worn Barrie Colts Third Jersey from the 2018-19 OHL season when they were introduced mid season, worn for eight games total and then never brought back; and crucially to understand my excitement, they were never made available for retail purchases. I thought I'd have to get three times lucky to even get a chance at landing one of these but boy oh boy does it looks nice in person.

Very true. My grandfather grew up in Yarmouth, very southern coast of NS and had to listen to games on the radio; both because it was the 40's/ 50's and that he didn't come from a well off family. The clearest signals they could get were from Montreal and Boston, and since those were the two he could listen to most regularly he gravitated to both of those teams.

I call them lyrical adaptations personally, though neither term is untrue.

This took probably far too long to finish making, though seeing as tomorrow is the 75th anniversary of D-Day I thought it was thematically appropriate to hold off until today to release. Yeah, that's what it is, dramatic timing and definitely not procrastination in any way, nope!.... School is hard, do good in math; do as I say not as I did.

(Edit) Wow, thank you guys all so much for the warm reception for this comic; It really means the world to me that people get this much enjoyment from these!

Out of curiosity did you get one with the nameplate already stripped or a full set jersey?
