I definitely will not be buying one. In fact I will not even watch the Olympic hockey tournament this year. Outside of the Russian team, this will be an AHL level tournament.

Not great, but still nicer than the 2014 version.

New jerseys tend get a lot of flack. But for the most part, although not perfect, Hockey Canada and Nike (and other jersey makers) have done a good job over the last 25 years.

This is not one of those times. Those are an abomination.The entire thing. Even the socks are terrible.

Looks like it's off the Deer Valley Zellers discount rack in 1994.

I mean honestly, was the thought that since we aren't getting NHLers that the jerseys should be second rate too?

It always makes me laugh that they create alternate jerseys for a tournament where the maximum number of games a single team can play is 7 and the majority of teams won't play more than 5.

Since they can't use the Hockey Canada logo I really wish they would just go with the old Canada Cup jerseys.

I miss those classic jersey's from the 2002 Olympics - those were perfect.

These are ok, but I won't buy one
