{allcanada} Winter Classic T-shirts leaked by online retailer?

Oh, what could have been.

Sure, the NHL Winter Classic that was supposed to have taken place Tuesday at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor, Mich., is likely rescheduled for New Year's Day 2014.

But it still hurts a little bit to look at what could have been merchandise for the big game this week between the Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs, which was canceled in November.

This week, images of the Red Wings and Maple Leafs Winter Classic T-shirts were leaked on a message board. They were downloaded from the database of online retailer FansEdge.com.

The T-shirt designs indicate what the Red Wings' and Maple Leafs' logos could have looked like for the festivities.

You won't find these shirts available for purchase, but you can at least wait another year, when the Winter Classic actually does take place (assuming a collective-bargaining agreement gets done, of course).
