The Toronto Maple Leafs announced today that its American Hockey League franchise will be named the Toronto Marlies when the team relocates to Toronto at the start of the 2005-06 season.

This isn't exactly a surprise. I wrote about this change back in December and mentioned I like the historical value of Marlies in much the same way I like the historical value of St. Pats.

If you want to check out the new logo, Here it is.
