The Team Canada website states: “We all know that Team Canada is a force of nature. So it’s only fitting that the design is inspired by northern storms, which are fast-moving cold fronts that originate from the north and send strong winds south, causing temperatures to drop rapidly. The graphic lines on the maple leaf ridge give dimension to the design, but are also representative of how snow and arctic winds are depicted on weather maps.

Fans will see a Team Canada team wearing one of the new jerseys for the first time when the women take to the ice for their home opener against Switzerland on Feb. 3, 2022, the day before the opening ceremonies. Winter Games.

Team Canada’s women’s hockey team will be looking for redemption at Beijing 2022 after losing the gold medal to Team USA in a shootout at Pyeongchang 2018. The men’s team, which played without no NHL player on the roster, came home with a bronze medal. The Paralympic team also fought – and lost to – the Americans in the 2018 gold medal.

The Beijing Olympics take place from February 4 to 20. The Paralympic Games are scheduled for March 4-13.
