Confused NHL Combines Leafs and Lightning Uniforms

leafs vs lightning 2015

It’s a common joke that the uniforms of the Tampa Bay Lightning look similar to the Toronto Maple Leafs, it’s Tweeted to me a few dozen times whenever the two clubs face-off against each other.

Now it seems as though the National Hockey League can’t tell the two apart either!

A youth Toronto Maple Leafs jersey offered for sale via the NHL’s official online store Shop.NHL.com shows the Leafs logo with Joffrey Lupul’s name and number on the Tampa Bay Lightning jersey template:

Whoops (also “royal blue” would be the home jersey guys…)

Not only is the striping identical to Tampa Bay’s home jersey but they didn’t even take the Bolts’ alternate logo off the shoulder:

Keep on keepin’ on, NHL.
