All the above information of past hockey olympics (team Canada) results, shouldn't be on this discussion page. All it has done, is take up Discussion space. It should have its own page, what do you other editors think? GoodDay 00:19, 22 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Moved. Anchoress 19:27, 12 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a little confused by THIS article on CBC, mentioning an Andy Murray as the head coach? There's an Andy Murray (ice hockey) who is a coach, but his article doesn't mention Team Canada, and this page doesn't mention him?? Anchoress 19:27, 12 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Check the article now, someone has added his Team Canada accomplishments. GoodDay 18:19, 14 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Do we really have to show the NHL teams each player is with? It seems to make the IIHF teams appear 'lesser'. Example: Shane Doan wasn't invited to the Team Canada camp as -Shane Doan of the Phoenix Coyotes-, he was invited as 'Shane Doan'. I mean, non-NHLers are invited too. GoodDay 21:42, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's useful, encyclopedic information. And it isn't just NHL teams, it's affiliation - see: * 23 Cory Murphy - IFK Helsinki. Anchoress 21:44, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, but I've moved 'C' & 'A's (captains & alternate captains), so they don't appear as captains & alternates for the NHL & Elite teams. GoodDay 22:01, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I realize your original comment was after the original Torino Games, but I'm sure team makeups haven't changed much since then. While it was true that at the 2010 Vancouver Games there were players from non-NHL teams, most of those players played for other professional league teams (KHL, DEL, Swedish Elite, etc.)--Robertjm (talk) 19:41, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why are the teams listed their current teams, though, rather than who they played with at the time? 209.47.202.162 (talk) 14:52, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is it really necessary to have rosters from 2004 and 2005. Maybe a roster from the last Olympics and World Championship. Putting the '04 and '05 rosters seems like overkill. Thanks for addressing my concern. Thew ent dan 01:18, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It lists Sidney Crosby as part of the 2005 World Championships roster. Hockey Canada hasn't sent over a junior player since Eric Lindros, and this was months before Crosby was drafted. ~~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.245.92.47 (talk) 05:13, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Crosby was listed as an alternate but did not play according to here. Flibirigit (talk) 16:43, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That's the National Mens team, not the World Championships team. The National team plays in minor tournaments across Europe through the year. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.245.92.47 (talk) 04:04, 17 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The 2010 roster is not sortable by date of birth. When you click on birthdate, it currently sorts by the day and not by the year. I'm not exactly sure how to fix this. Nuttster99 (talk) 15:36, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We need either a list or category of "hockey clubs" that have represented Canada. That is to say, all the "hockey clubs" who were given opportunity to compete in international competitions on behalf of Canda. A pseudo-list exists at the Allan Cup article for the senior champions of Canada, and this article lists "hockey clubs" from 1930 to 1963. However no specific mention is made of when "hockey clubs" started or stopped representing Canada in place of individuals selected to form a team. Does anyone have these exact dates. Flibirigit (talk) 03:52, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I found my own answer. Flibirigit (talk) 04:31, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Excerpt from Hockey Canada

Canada's National Men's Team was founded in 1963 by Father David Bauer, who shared a deep commitment to developing the Canadian character through international hockey. National Team players in the United States, Canada and throughout the world are united by their respect for the maple leaf.

Until the early 1960s, Canada's international representation was by Senior Amateur Club teams. The last senior team to win a World Championship was the (B.C.) Trail Smoke Eaters in 1961. Shortly thereafter, Bauer proposed to the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association a plan to develop a Canadian national hockey team. The proposal was accepted and the "Nats" were born, playing out of the University of British Columbia. The best finish by Bauer's team was a bronze at the Grenoble Winter Olympic Games in 1968.

The team was a full-time program from 1963-68 and 1983-2000, giving Canada a presence at major international events and also served as a development program for players moving on to sign NHL, minor league and international contracts, as well as giving players the opportunity to travel the world and represent their country. A number of NHL teams gained from this program, as graduates such as Eric Lindros, Sean Burke, Adrian Aucoin, Chris Therien, Joé Juneau, James Patrick and Fred Brathwaite went on to illustrious NHL careers.

Who coached Team Canada in 1988? Or did Canada skip the Tournament, due to the 1988 Winter Olympics. GoodDay (talk) 20:07, 29 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Probably the same coach as the Olympics but I have nothing to back that up. Back then Team Canada was always coached by a full time coach because we had a national team that played together year round as opposed to now where stars go and play. -Djsasso (talk) 19:14, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Who coached them where in 1988? There were no World Championships that year. Nor were there in 1984 or 1980--not in Olympic years. It was in 1992 that they started having both in the same year (they also did in 1972 and 1976). 213.210.157.14 (talk) 13:31, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Changing it to the 2010 logo from the official logo is a big change. Remember that the 2010 logo is only for the 2010 olympics and nothing else. Every single Canadian team (excluding the spanglier cup) will use the official logo. Including the IIHF world Championship after the Olympics. So there is no reason to change it.--Everyone Dies In the End (talk) 22:47, 26 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As I see it, the official logo of the Canadian mens team is CURRENTLY the 2010 logo and not the Hockey Canada corporate logo. I think temporarily changing it to that while it is the official main logo of the team wouldn't be out of line.--Львівське (talk) 06:26, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I would disagree. It is the logo Hockey Canada has been forced to use for these games because of IOC regulations, but is equivalent to an alternate or third jersey logo in my view. All other national teams continue to use the logo currently in the infobox. Resolute 06:29, 10 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agreed with Resolute and Everyone, this page isn't just about the olympic team. Its about the national team. -DJSasso (talk) 16:17, 13 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the logo? its now empty. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.227.127.250 (talk) 04:00, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Every other national team has its crest at the top, Canada's has mysteriously disappeared and no explanation.

The bottom of the infobox indicates the national teams record is "839-410-123". Can we get a reference for this please? -Run34 (talk) 05:01, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Should there not be a biggest defeat also for canada? The other teams have a biggest defeat, surely there must have been a few times when they lost "big"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.55.112.117 (talk) 20:42, 25 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

No, there shouldn't, Canada's never really had a "Big," Defeat, and If they have, it's not worth putting here —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.46.79.44 (talk) 20:44, 28 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• 11-1 for the Soviets is a pretty big loss.

See discussion at Talk:Steve_Yzerman#Olympic_jersey_retirement. — MrDolomite • Talk 16:32, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to see references in this section they should not be too hard to find. I really find it difficult to believe Patrick Roy had his jersey retired. He did not have that exceptional an international career.

I can say with near certainty that Patrick Roy's number has not been retired by Team Canada. After all, the guy DECLINED to play for the team on multiple occasions. For the same reason, I would say that retiring Lemieux's number is somewhat dubious.88.103.9.230 (talk) 14:53, 22 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The jerseys that Wikipedia is displaying right now are from the 2014 Winter Olympics. Those jerseys will never be worn again by Team Canada. I suggest we use the 100th anniversary jerseys that any Canadian team will be using right now. ^[1]

This article & the other national ice hockey team articles are quite confusing, as far as the Infobox is concerned. Right now, we've got the 2018 Winter Olympics team in the infobox. In May, it'll be the 2018 World Ice Hockey Championships team. In the summer of 2020, it'll be the 2020 World Cup of Hockey team. GoodDay (talk) 00:31, 22 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
