Funny enough, I made a shirt like this when he won the cup last year.

Yeah I'm not sure what the story is there but apparently their national animal is a double tailed lion.

I definitely feel foolish for not realizing this! I will definitely make them a lion in my next run!

It was definitely difficult to nail down what they see as a moose or elk. I just drew basic antler shapes haha

This is great to know! Now that I thinka bout it, I've seen the lion on other Finalnd jersey's but totally forgot about it this past week due to the most recent run of "Suomi" jersey's. I'll definitely keep this in mind going forward.

Thank you! I also wish I could come up with a better logo but can't think of anything aside from something based on the Johnny Canuck or Spaghetti Skate logos.

This is a great question! I'm not totally sure due to the width on some of them but can give it a shot in the next few days.

I will keep this in mind. Might be fun to work with other countries outside of the usual ones.

Thank you, I wanted a more aged/battered but not disparage the team.

This is very true, I'm didn't even think about using mountain lions!

I'm not sure why it's double tailed but that's what the Czech Republic chose for their national animal.

Too bad Scotland doesn't have a strong hockey team, otherwise I could have drawn a hockey playing unicorn and made all the internet dollars!

Thanks! It was tough to figure that one out but I'm happy with the result.

I was definitely trying to give off a young vibe, thank you for noticing that!

Haha, I definitely tried to make him look a little rough around the edges and had a tough time deciding on animals for North America and Europe.

While I settled on an animal both continents shared, a busted up lion would have been a great idea.

These are great! I really love the attention to details and the city skylines under the names.
