Is the new Tampa Bay Lightning Jersey too similar to the Toronto Maple Leafs?

The Tampa Bay Lightning revealed their latest look for the 11-12 season, the early rumblings are mainly mentions that it is very Maple Leafish...

I think the new jerseys are indeed too similar to Toronto. I like the laces and the idea of no team name at home (we know who we are), but team name on the road, (tell 'em who we are!). However, the color scheme, the "oldstyle" markings and even the new "Flash Gordon" comic book logo are not winning me over. Lightning fans are not going to be happy, if early results hold true.

Interestingly enough, several fans on the Lighning forum thought they looked too much like Detroit, as well as several who mentioned Toronto. The idea is that Detroit and Toronto look natural in Old school uniforms because their franchises ARE old school with a ton of history.

One fan even photoshopped what he thought would be better, and there were complaints that the fans had not been consulted.

Giving away new jerseys to EVERY season ticket holder is admirable, as is the overall efforts of the new owner, but this new jersey and logo could have been handled better, in my opinion. The final word however, will be spoken in the win-loss stats. The Jersey will become increasingle popular if the Lightning win.

I like the new Logo, but the overall jersey just looks too Toronto, I can see why people say Detroit as well. I think maybe one focus group with hockey knowledgeable people may have avoided this.
