They do look better. In much the same way that week old crap smells better than fresh crap.

Is the "I don't like black!" sentiment some disease that floats around CP? How do I avoid getting it? It's an official team colour, has been for YEARS.
You.... HAVE watched the Olympics before right?
For heaven's sake, we used to wear blue pants, surely this is a less offensive alternative that actually adds to the red and white instead of being a glaring eyesore.

Black has always been an accent colour, not the dominating theme. There was no reason to design a third jersey - Canada is the lone country with a third uniform, and that is exclusively due to crass commericalism.
Literally the only positive thing I can say about these uniforms is that they are better than those green monstrosities from the Saskatchewan world juniors.
The Reds and Whites make me think of Petro Canada, the blacks of Nazi Germany, and the gold embroidered maple leaves represent a game of Galaxian. Just a sorry, sad and pitiful attempt at a hockey uniform.
