Yes, it's huge. It's bigger than baseball and football combined in the US. It's all over their TV commercials, sports commentary, and billboards. Canada is very serious when it comes to hockey.
George Sisler played before jerseys had numbers or names
I can understanding with shipping around the holidays how they could send out a wrong jersey, but this is ridiculous, they sent me the wrong jersey twice. I received a Pittsburg Polamalo Jersey with ironed on names, logo and numbers. The jersey I ordered should have the names, logo, and numbers sewn on and embroidered. By the way you have to pay the return shipping even when they screw up.
white with blue names, numbers and team name/symbol
The names and numbers came into force in the Euro 1988.
In fact many of the same sports as in the U.S. We do share the same hockey league. And lacross league. Baesball and Basketball are not as big in Canada though. Canada has it's own football league (the CFL).
When everybody came over to Canada (immigrated) They got some of the names of places from where they came from. In England there is a place called Jersey so in the new colonies they named the place "The New Jersey" later changed to simply New Jersey. -Hope this helped -Peter
