These are awesome. Sleek, modern, and stylish. The black one is my favorite. Mangiapane will be mean muggin in that bad boy.

I love when designers aren’t afraid to try something a bit different.

The people who designed these should feel bad.



These would be fine...if the players were dirt bikers.

Maybe an unpopular opinion I don't know, but I always thought they should just keep the 2010 logo.

The leaf looks like it ate NBC's peacock.

The red one is just bad, and the black definitely looks like a dirt biking helmet belongs on top of it.

The white was almost good, but that leaf... blargh...

Pretty bad IMO. I don't like black on a Team Canada jersey.

Edit: The white one is ok, but the leaf looks too artsy/futuristic, etc.

I like the red one. Just like a Flame shouldnt be black i liked the red Flaming C logo on red.
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.

Black has had a prominent spot on team Canada jerseys for the past 30 years. 60 years if you want to include pants and gloves as part of the uniform.

I don't like these because primarily the weird shoulder block as a different off-colour from the upper chest/clavicle area. Really bizarre someone is paid to produce this level of junk and people approve it. Only thing that appears to be somewhat acceptable is the shorter jersey as opposed to it being longer (dress-like). And the bicep lines don't go all the way around? Why? Finland always seems to have decent jerseys. USA seems to be the oddest. And why is the red hue almost neon orange? So many questions.

I think its the opposite actually.

They tried to be too imaginative and in doing so completely ruined the Maple Leaf. It would be like the Flames thinking they needed to add more fire to the Flaming C.

If they'd left the Maple Leaf well enough alone they'd be alright, but its all I can see.

"You know what maple leaves need? MOAR POINTS!!"

Its like when an anthem singer decides they're going to put their own personal spin on the anthem. Nobody cares what you think it should sound like. Just sing the anthem and get lost.

Either way, my Canadiana level is at an all-time low lately and I couldnt care less about the Olympics so its not like I was ever going to buy one anyways.

Looks like I'm in the minority here.

I really like the black and red ones. Agreed the Maple Leaf is too stylized but I'm a fan.

I like them personally. I get that they aren’t a traditional design and that matters to some people, but doesn’t bother me.

I bet they have great merch sales with these.

Are you thinking of the wrong olympics? Nagano jerseys were nice. Not great but nice.

That’s a masterpiece compared to these turds.
