I went with the 1938 Leaf, its a classic.
I like the 38 logo, even though it looks more like a marijuana leaf than a maple leaf :)
I like the 1966 logo. I don't like the lopsided leaf in the first logo. The 1938 leaf is too busy. The current one is too plain.
You really should have just put 38 vs. 82...thats the whole poll really.
I like the clean style of 82.
66 as primary logo...38 as a third.
Hey Chrsi - you forgot the Leafs Logo from '67 when they won the cup. That one is my favourite simply because of the lower case 'n' in 'TOROnTO'
The logo shown as being from 1938 wasn't introduced until around the late 50's. The logo used from the late 30's to the late 50's looked more like this: http://firstsportscards.com/Images/23Broda.jpg
Quite a difference. However, it's difficult to find a source that gives a detailed account of the evolution of the Maple Leafs logo. The account on the Leaf's website, and Chris Creamer's sports logo website seem to indicate that no major changes were made between 1937 and 1966.

I'm surprised the 82 logo is doing so well, the 66 logo is so much better. 38' logo is neat, but too busy for a primary, like someone else said, a good 3rd jersey logo.
