Interestingly enough.

Last night, while browsing at Real Sports, I asked what Junior Jersey was selling the best.

Well, not surprisingly, Canada was selling #1.

But what did surprise me was Finland and Sweden were almost tied for #2.

I figured it would have been USA.
 
Anyone else miss the Vancouver 2010 jerseys?

These are quite possibly my favourite international team Canada jerseys ever. I also love the designs in the maple leafs.

Absolutely loved these. And love the older style Canada ones with Subban celebrating earlier in the thread.

Not a huge fan of these ones but also don't hate them.
 
Its a good jersey, there has always been black somewhere, not like they're throwing in some blue or green.
 
On a diff note: anybody else is slightly annoyed at the fact that TSN marks Canada an the USA in their tables by their hockey federations logos, while the rest of the world by their flags? Because every other nation also has a federation logo... You do one or the other uniformly. Of course, north americans will not recognize other countries logos (and the TCN are too lazy to find them) - but then you just stick to the flags...

I don't like the fact that Team Canada represents Hockey Canada and not necessarily Canada. We shouldn't use that corporate logo and we shouldn't have the colour black in the mix.

Sweden gets so much respect for never changing their look.
 
I really don't like the Czech uniform. The white shoulder part just stretches down too low, making the C and A's awkwardly far down on the jersey.

I really love that Slovakia kept their Olympic uniform. That jersey is great!

I have always loved Czech Republics Logo their coat of arms, it's simple and classic.
 
Here's a perfect picture to illustrate how I'd like to see the jerseys for both Canada and Sweden. As for Canada, this is a classic jersey that I really miss. Although I could never figure out why they used blue pants, I just love these jerseys, they ARE Team Canada. Black is NOT Team Canada.

And in the same picture you can also see how I'd like the Swedish jerseys. A bit of yellow on the shoulders of the blue jerseys, and a bit of blue on the shoulders of the yellow ones. The current ones aren't bad, but they are TOO plain, so a little touch to the shoulders would be perfect.

I'd love for the Canadians to back to the uniform with this logo:

However I would be all for something new with the maple leaf from the 100th anniversary logo:

I would like to see the use of any color other than red and white excluded from future uniforms, but if they insist on black to accent the red and white it should be minimal.

No. Not even a little bit. Of all the problems confronting me in my life, and what's going on in the world - yours - and let's be blunt - this is YOUR problem - takes a back seat.

**** me.... :shakehead

At the very least it's a thread derailment. Go start another thread to crap on Canada with.

And that's an argument against what? Jeez, all of HFboards takes a back seat compared to me having to wash the car the day after tomorrow....

Sensative much and on defensive... I am crapping on TSN

Yes, that has always bothered me. I hate that a corporate or governing logo is on the jersey already, I don't need to see it also replacing our flag. It's our flag for crying out loud, it should trump any incorporated entity.
