Whatever positive things I could say about that pair or jerseys I never have like the skating man crest. On the other hand, if they used the crest on that 3rd, almost anything they did with it would be forgivable to me. Ideally bring back the 1936 Olympics (or similar one) and also make a red version of it.

I know, except traditional power house Canadian teams have worn primarily red & white for eons now. Here's youtube highlights of tonight's Canada-Finland, the unis give me an expansion year Ottawa Senators vibe. @2001mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except...you know...the jerseys that everyone just said were "the best ever" featured black and had a black alternate I'll respect any opinion that you can defend.

No black necessary. Also Australia wears yellow/green, but their flag is navy, red, and white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much hate as these got, I think these are miles ahead of what they just released. Get rid of the black yoke and this becomes a classic look.

A google search shows there are reasons for all these oddities. Canada however, does not seem to have an excuse to use black ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you are hell bent on having a 3rd color, you could silver or gray. The black is simply too much ! The red one looks like a Devils jersey.

If we live in a world where Toronto and Tampa Bay can coexist, we can have the New Jersey Devils and Team Canada looking similar...and having Carolina and Team Canada look similar is not an improvement.
