illini1 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 White helmets have been standard for the USA for a while.Personally, I prefer it to this:I know they have worn white helmets for quite a while. I was just making the point that they do this because the shade of navy isn't consistent between manufacturers, so they decided to wear navy. This link from USA Hockey was on Uniwatch on Friday.https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jMFcLwmGyemy1JArhmMC9Q-GEVWlbG6hduBD1lgCTZs/edit?pli=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simpsonsimard Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I've seen the golden stars on the Russian jersey, but could somebody explain to me why the golden crowns are on Canada replicas but not on the authentic jerseys??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vman Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I've seen the golden stars on the Russian jersey, but could somebody explain to me why the golden crowns are on Canada replicas but not on the authentic jerseys???First off, they're maple leaves, not crowns on the Canadian jerseys. On the authentics they appear on the inside chest of the jersey. Since the replica's are stitched and not screened or heat pressed like the authentics, they couldn't place them at the same spot, so they were placed on the lower front corner instead.

BigBubba Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 This is kind of related to the thread. I just ordered this t-shirt.After a good shootout in a round-robin game? Not trying to be a dick, but unless you guys win gold, that shirt will be no good to wear in two weeks. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.

DEAD! Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 After watching the Canada-Finland game, I would much rather get the white Finnish jersey than the any of the Canadian ones. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I REALLY would have no reason to wear, being a Blackhawks fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJAnfield Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 This is kind of related to the thread. I just ordered this t-shirt.That's a bit much for a preliminary round win. I loved every moment of it, and it was a great moment as a USA fan, but not shirt worthy. Not a bad idea for every player on the squad. As a sharks fan I'd buy a joe shirt.

Not trying to be a dick, but unless you guys win gold, that shirt will be no good to wear in two weeks.Even if the US wins, having a shirt like this is pretty pointless, unless you're an Oshie fan. But in a shootout, and when games don't mean all that much. I'm sorry, what he accomplished was okay, but what Jeff Carter did was more impressive (an in game hat trick with other players on the ice). I'm a US citizen and what he did was something to talk about, but not even shirt worthy. First of all, the olympics do shootouts incorrectly. Why in the heck is one player allowed to take multiple shots, when you have other players on the ice. I don't have a problem with the shootout, but the olympics version is the dumbest thing I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could understand if he had an awesome tournament and scored a hat trick in the gold medal game, but let's be honest with ourselves. He did this in an exhibition game. When everyone advances, it's a preseason game. He did this in a shootout when the game didn't really matter. Big whoopie. And this coming from a US citizen. Few are going to remember, because it didn't matter.I agree with your point, though if he had a hat trick in a victorious gold-medal game, this shirt would still be relevant because it doesn't directly reference the shoutout (i.e. It could represent his while body of work) Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature.

BrianLion Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 yeah let's get realistic here. While Oshie basically single-handedly won the shootout for Team USA. It was a round robin game between two pretty evenly-matched teams. Some people are acting like he just took out the Soviet Red Army to win a Gold Medal.

ColeJ Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 white helmets on team usa works, in my opinion. i'm pretty sure its an american tradition that the "good guys" wear white hats in old westerns. and what's more american than an old western movie?
