As Canada gets ready to mark 150 years of Confederation, Hockey Canada gets a new look, one that celebrates not only the game, but the Canadians who have helped make it part of the national identity.
Show your support for our country and our game with the new Team Canada jersey.
BUY IT ONLINETo commemorate the 100th anniversary of Hockey Canada, all of Canada’s national teams wore the jersey in international competition during the 2014-15 season, celebrating Hockey Canada’s heritage and history. The jersey was worn during undefeated runs to gold at the 2015 IIHF World Championship and 2015 IIHF World Junior Championship, and the black version of the jersey was worn only once, by Canada Black during the 2014 World Under-17 Hockey Challenge.

Sidney Crosby was already a household name in Canada, but sealed his spot in Canadian hockey lore with the overtime winner in the Olympic gold medal game in Vancouver. Marie-Philip Poulin was the youngest player on Canada’s Women’s Olympic Team roster in Vancouver, but scored the only goals in Canada’s 2-0 gold medal game win over the U.S.
All of Canada’s national teams have worn the jersey since it debuted at the 2008 IIHF World Championship in Quebec City, Que., and Halifax, N.S., making it one of the longest-running Team Canada jerseys.

Mario Lemieux captained Canada to its first Olympic gold medal in 50 years, and his play on Paul Kariya’s goal in the 2002 final – allowing Chris Pronger’s pass to go through his legs – remains one of the most iconic in Canadian Olympic history. Geraldine Heaney capped her amazing Team Canada career with Olympic gold in 2002, and was the third woman inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2013.

Canada’s National Women’s Team wore the jersey at the inaugural IIHF World Women’s Championship when the tournament debuted in 1990. It was ‘Pink Power’ in Ottawa; spurred on by the unique Team Canada jerseys, fans at the Ottawa Civic Centre were decked out in pink, and even the Zamboni driver got into the act. It worked – Canada won the first women’s world title.
1990 IIHF World Women’s Championship
National Women’s Team
Angela James’s 11 goals in 1990 remain the most ever by a Canadian at a single world championship, and she was one of the first two women inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2010.

Wayne Gretzky is, quite simply, The Great One, representing Canada at four Canada Cups, leading the tournament in scoring three times and winning MVP honours in 1987, when he had 21 points in nine games. Bobby Orr showed why he is considered the greatest defenceman of all time, recording nine points in seven games and taking home the MVP award in 1976.
The Program of Excellence was created in the lead up to the 1982 IIHF World Junior Championship, and it paid immediate dividends. Canada beat the perennial favourite Soviet Union for the first time – a 7-0 thrashing – en route to its first-ever gold medal. When Canada clinched gold in Rochester, Minn., there was no recording of ‘O Canada,’ so the players sang the anthem themselves, beginning a tradition that continues today.

National Men’s Team
Terry O’Malley ranks fourth in all-time games played for Canada at the Olympics (19), wearing red and white in 1964, 1968 and 1980, and was inducted into the IIHF Hall of Fame in 1998.

The Edmonton Mercurys wore the jersey in Oslo, Norway, when they became the sixth and final club team to win in an Olympic gold medal for Canada. Needing only a tie in their round robin finale against the U.S. to clinch the gold medal, Canada got just that; a 3-3 draw gave the Canadians gold, while the Americans were left with silver.

The Winnipeg Hockey Club wore the jersey when they made it four-for-four in Olympic gold medals for Canada in Lake Placid, N.Y.; a tie with the host United States on the final day of the double round robin format was enough to give Canada gold and leave the Americans with the silver medal.
1948 Olympic Winter Games
Men’s Olympic Team (Winnipeg Hockey Club)
Vic Lundquist not only won Olympic gold, he won an IIHF World Championship gold medal in 1935, and coached Sweden at the 1936 Olympic Winter Games. Walter Monson was inducted into the British Ice Hockey Hall of Fame in 1955.
The University of Toronto Grads wore the jersey when they claimed Canada’s third consecutive Olympic hockey gold medal in St. Moritz, Switzerland, not allowing a single goal in three games and reaching double digits in all three.

1928 Olympic Winter Games
Men’s Olympic Team (University of Toronto)

1924 Olympic Winter Games
Men’s Olympic Team (Toronto Granites)
