Canada Ice Hockey Jerseys Revealed for Milano Cortina 2026 Olympics
Canada has unveiled its new Olympic ice hockey jerseys during the opening game of the 2025–26 Rivalry Series against the United States. The event took place on November 6 in Ohio, showcasing the nation's latest look as excitement builds for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina.
As the NHL season continues and the PWHL prepares to resume on November 21, Canadian fans now have another reason to celebrate: the long-awaited Team Canada Olympic jersey. The yearly Rivalry Series, a highlight of international women’s hockey, provided the perfect setting to debut the design.
Design and Symbolism
The new Olympic set includes three versions: a red jersey, a black jersey with a bold black maple leaf, and a white jersey featuring a red maple leaf. Each incorporates broad multi-tone stripes on the sleeves and along the hemline, giving them a distinctly modern look while preserving the nation’s classic hockey identity.
"The theme behind the design is the 'unbreakable leaf,' inspired by the unbreakable diamond shape reflecting the team's commitment to excellence, mirroring the unassailable nature of a diamond and its ability to withstand immense pressure."
A Nod to Tradition
Over the decades, Team Canada jerseys have symbolized national pride and a relentless pursuit of victory. The 2026 edition pays homage to that heritage, representing both strength and unity through its refined details and enduring symbols.
