Looks like the Canucks next year will be wearing the Orca logo again. Aqullini said that they don't want to change so much because too much change could be a bad thing. He also mentioned how he wants to appeal to the younger generation fans right now, the ones who only know the "Orca" as the Canucks.

Aqullini isn't interested in a jersey "Money Grab" and wants continuity. "you can't have a classic uniform if you are always changing".

He also mentioned things about trying to get more HD games for next season and lower the amount of PPV games that they broadcast in the future.

What you guys think? Looks like there won't be Vintage

Yay, I've grown up with the Orca and as much as I like the vintage I like the Orca more.

I guess it's time for the Canucks to have a permanent image in the league...

I like the current logo and colors. crisp, clean and not too complex. I love them.
I don't mind seeing them for another few years.
I used to like the vintage color and logo too but it's too overrated now and it was good because it was used way back then....it doesn't look as nice with the new team to me.

Wow I would love to see less PPV games. But does that necessarily mean SPAC broadcasts more? Oh well wait and see I guess. HD is irrelevant to me seeing has how I don't have a fancy pants HDTV.

I don't really care which they choose. Both the Orca and Vintage look sharp in my opinion. It sounded to me like the logo will stay, but the color scheme will likely adopt the blue-white-green colors of the vintage. Should be interesting!

p.s. For all those who hate the Orca, you should know that most of the league thinks the Canucks have one of the best jersey's in the league ever since its implementation. I personally like it and the idea of stability and continuity.

p.p.s The orca logo is better than 90% of the logo's in the NHL (again in my opinion). It could be worse...we could have a poopy looking logo like Buffalo!

I like the orca (but love the vintage), hopefully they go with the Orca and Vintage colors.

I'm glad they're thinking about classic jerseys and finally building an identity with a logo, like the way every other Canadian team is. Although, I was hoping they would try and build that identity with the vintage logo or some newer one that is better than the Orca, which I'm not a huge fan of. Oh well.

I'm a big fan of the vintage. The orca just seems like a corporate image.

Only somebody who grew up with a monstrosity like the "skate" could possibly think that. ;)
I don't mind the Orca, but I prefer the Vintage. I 100% prefer the blue/green/white over the current colours... it's never sat right with me having (nearly) the same colours as the Avs. I do like the Navy though... I'll give them that.

I can't see the game, but I know what everybody in the building or watching on TV sees because of Shorty, and I know exactly how they all feel because of Tom Larscheid.
