14. Canada

When I saw this photo of Ernie Whitt and Cal Quantrill at an Arizona Coyotes game, I thought (read: was hoping) this was a soccer jersey or something. I do not like these. Also, why is the word “Canada” so small? Have we no pride? — KH
As I’ve said many times since my beat writing days, Canada is my favourite road country. This will always be true. So it pains me to say that these uniforms are weirder than serving milk out of a bag. What’s with the stripes? The small lettering? The overdone cap logo? This makes me want to splash a cup of scalding Tim Horton’s coffee on my face. I’m exaggerating. But not by much. — MC
How do you mess up this uniform? Well, there are tons of ways they did, that’s for sure. But the original sin is the hat. You go to Canada and the maple leaf is everywhere, including the most American of companies, McDonald’s. You go anywhere, you’ll see the maple leaf. It’s simple and iconic. All the work has been done for you. Red hat, white maple leaf. Done. Do that and profit. Hell, you can even mix and match with black thrown in.
A black hat with a red maple leaf? [Insert Phillip J. Fry take my money.gif here]
Yet you have this abomination. I’m not even mad, just disappointed. — CTR
