Cosmic Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 So what makes the USA shield or the Canadian maple leaf not a corporate logo? I mean, I can buy hats and shirts and sweats with the shield or the maple leaf on it. Or is it because it's just that, a "symbol" and not a "logo"?The maple leaf and the shield are national symbols. The USA with the flag-y S and the red and black maple leaf with the hockey player are symbols specifically for the hockey governing bodies. The IOC doesn't want the governing bodies' logos on the jerseys. Whether you agree or not, it's pretty straightforward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illini1 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 It's the same reason why national soccer teams can't wear their crests in the Summer Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Really diggin' these jerseys since it sets the Slovenes apart from the multitude of red, white & blue teams in this tournament. The Seahwakesque colour scheme seems to have paid off as well, as Team Slovenija advances to the quarter-finals. Take note, Colorado Avalanche.

Wilt Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 It's quite ridiculous when you consider that the teams qualify via IIHF/FIFA tournaments but when arriving at the Games they have to switch their crests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Scorcho Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Every team is red white and blue. It's really boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Every team is red white and blue. It's really boring.Sweden, Latvia, Slovenia, Finland, Canada, Switzerland, Austria are not red white and blue. Sure, five of the 12 teams in the tournament wear some variation of red white and blue, but it's not "every team". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Giant Pacific Octopus Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 We never got to see Switzerland's white jerseys in action. They wore the reds only for all four games in the tournament. The Catch of the Day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreamSoda Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Every team is red white and blue. It's really boring.Yes, Sweden with their Blue and Gold look and Finland with Blue, light blue and white. Most teams will have have one either blue or red in them....We never got to see Switzerland's white jerseys in action. They wore the reds only for all four games in the tournament.And that's too bad, it was easily their better jersey. The red version was too plain.

CreamSoda Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 ugh!!!I really hate how the entire right side of the Czech jersey is white. Its not an easy to distinguish between the USA sweater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vman Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 We never got to see Switzerland's white jerseys in action. They wore the reds only for all four games in the tournament.The women's team wore the whites on several occasions, so just google those pics if you really want to see them in action.

Sport Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 I found those Czech Republic flag jerseys difficult to watch. There was far too much white and when they were attacking net on the right side of the screen it really showed. It was distracting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadSt_Bully Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 This might not be the right thread, but I finally got my USA Hockey sweater from Vancouver customized by Exclusive Pro Sports this past week. I requested my state (Commonwealth, technically) and its order of admission to the Union for the name and number, a principle I picked up from people who get US Soccer kits customized.I'm very thrilled with how it turned out!This is not the 2010 Vancouver USA sweater...They had the U S A on that sweater and not the logo.I'm aware of this, but I prefer the federation logo on the Vancouver template than the block arched "USA" which was hastily slapped on when the uniform guidelines were changed.

Sodboy13 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 That Sweden-Finland game is going to be gorgeous to look at. I'm still not a fan of Nike's template, but both of those teams did some good work within its crappy constraints.
