You may have noticed the Maple Leafs are wearing new uniforms at practice - the same style that the players used during the NHL all-star game.

Apparently they'll be used during the regular season next year and some complain that it's nothing more than a "cash grab" by the league which has signed a huge deal with Reebok.

The same argument cannot be used against the Canadian Womens Olympic team that also plans a uniform change. Their strategy is to get more fans to attend games that don't involve playing the US Olympic team.

The womens uniforms are much more aero dynamic and less restrictive than the NHL uniforms.
