However Toronto Varsity Blues coach Conn Smythe put together a group of his own and made a $160,000 (equivalent to $2,345,000 in 2018) offer With the support of Bickell a St Pats shareholder Smythe persuaded Querrie to accept their bid arguing that civic pride was more important than money After taking control on February 14 1927 Smythe immediately renamed the team the Maple Leafs after the national symbol of Canada. He attributed his choice of a maple leaf for the logo to his experiences as a Canadian Army officer and prisoner of war during World War I Viewing the maple leaf as a "badge of courage" and a reminder of home Smythe decided to give the same name to his hockey team in honour of the many Canadian soldiers who wore it. However the team was not the first to use the name a Toronto minor-league baseball team had used the name "Maple Leafs" since 1895 Initial reports were that the team's colours were to be red and white, but the Leafs wore white sweaters with a green maple leaf for their first game on February 17 1927 on September 27 1927 it was announced that the Leafs had changed their colour scheme to blue and white. Although Smythe later stated he chose blue because it represents the Canadian skies and white to represent snow these colours were also used on his gravel and sand business' trucks the colour blue was also a colour historically associated with the City of Toronto the use of blue by top-level Toronto-based sports clubs began with the Argonaut Rowing Club in the 19th century later adopted by their football team the Toronto Argonauts in 1873 Opening of Maple Leaf Gardens (1930s).
