Oshie's St. Louis Blues sweater has been the second-best selling jersey in the NHL, behind only Canadian superstar and gold medalist Sidney Crosby.

The second-place status applies to the time pereiod from the start of the Olympic men's hockey tournament on February 12 through March 2.

But he wasn't unpopular before. Oshie ranks 18th overall in jersey sales since the start of the season.
