Canada introduced its new Olympic ice hockey uniforms during the opening game of the 2025–26 Rivalry Series against the United States. The debut took place on 6 November in Ohio, offering fans a preview of what Team Canada will wear at the Milano Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games.
The collection includes three versions: a red jersey, a black jersey featuring a bold black maple leaf, and a white jersey emblazoned with a red maple leaf. Each model displays thick multi-tone stripes across the sleeves and lower hem.
