I just came home from the VIP Maple Leafs/Marlies jersey release...

Noothing special... Solid blue, solid white... no trim on the wrists (moved to around the elbows)... looks much like the parctice jerseys they been waiting for years except the material is differnt and stitching has differnt lines...

Also of fantasy relevance Jiri Tlusty does not see him cracking the NHL roster had a very good 15 min talk with him and he\'s very realistic/optimistic about where he fits and his situation (with the Marlies)... He is still not 100% with the language but is doing excellent from where he was last year and hoping that Marty Sagat(Marlie Vet of 2 years) will sign again and help him grow both with the game and off the ice in North American lifestyle...

Kaberle, Tucker, Blake, Stajan, Jamie Sifers, Chris Harrington, Colin Murphy, Alex Foster, Justin Pogge, Paul Maurice, Greg Gilbert and the great (my ass) John Ferguson Jr. were also present...
