Looks like a maple leaf had a kid with the NBC peacock logo

A terrible black jersey, and a poorly stylized leaf...again. Manage to be both too experimental and extremely lazy at the same time, which is tough to do if you try.



Not anywhere near as bad as Pyeongchang, but that doesn't make them good. I think I'd even have to rank them behind 'Petro-Canada presents Team Canada' from Sochi.

Plus the pants aren’t the jersey. Nobody goes out and buys team Canada hockey pants to wear around town.

That and the jerseys themselves were still much nicer.

I don't mind the colours and layout but the leaf isn't good looking.

Sounds like the complainers are a bunch of crusty "Get off my lawn" old geezer historians.
Im no spring chicken myself but i like new creative spins and ideas, especially when its for one time only event.
I like creative stuff too, but only when it doesn’t suck.

The IOC’s rule about not being able to use your hockey federation’s logo is so stupid.

The Black one looks like the Dallas Stars highlighter jersey, and the red one should have a white maple leaf.

The white one looks good.

Agreed on all counts.

I’m shocked about all the negativity. I love these jerseys.

No offence to the Uyghurs or Peng Shuai, but this is another good reason to boycott these olympics...

If the white one had red pants and gloves it would be tolerable… but it doesn’t.

The black one is awful IMO, but the red and especially white ones aren't too bad. If Mangiapane is on the team I'll definitely be buying one

I think it’s the leaf that ruins it. The leaf is hideous but the designs are okay.

I dunno. Don’t they use focus groups?

I'd go with ugly. Nice logo but the jersey is not a good look. But to each their own.

Maybe they were going for a “Leafs By Snoop” sort of a look. The leaf is identical, but gold…

I don't mind the black jersey as an alternate. Looks cool and modernized, so I get why they're trying to go that route. Again, don't hate it.

The white jersey missed the mark not having red pants instead of the garbage black ones they have.

All of the black on the red jersey should have been white.

All I can think is maybe these aren't the actual kits and are just showing the socks and jerseys.

The white one is ok, make the leaf white on the red jersey and you’d have an ok pair. The black, nope.
