and how would a freakin lumberjack represent canucks?
not all of us are lumberjacks

How? Lumberjacks are HARD WORKING, "LUNCH BUCKET" type workers. That's the kind of player that MOST Canuck (and CANADIAN) Hockey fans LOVE and Admire! The Matt Cookes, the Trevor Lindens, the Kevin Bieksa's, Lanny McDonalds, Wendel Clarkes, Jerome Iginlas, Steve Yzermans, Joe Sakics etc etc.

Lumberjacks chop down Trees, and FORESTRY is one of B.C.'s BIGGEST industries!!.

Some HOCKEY sticks are Still made out of WOOD, which comes from TREES, some of which are chopped down by LUMBERJACKS!

It's also about HERITAGE, TRADITION, that represents ALL races of British Columbians, NOT just one with a symbolic drawing of a whale.

Canuck is a "slang" term for CANADIAN, just as "YANKEE" is a slang term for an AMERICAN, and which PRO SPORTS team is the most well known world wide?...The New York YANKEES!!!...not to mention the MOST SUCCESSFUL!!!

1. Lumberjacks chop down Trees, and FORESTRY is one of B.C.'s BIGGEST industries!!.

2. Some HOCKEY sticks are Still made out of WOOD, which comes from TREES, some of which are chopped down by LUMBERJACKS!

3.It's also about HERITAGE, TRADITION, that represents ALL races of British Columbians, NOT just one with a symbolic drawing of a whale.

Not to attack you or anything, but:

1. So is hydroelectricity, so maybe we can have those construction builders that make dams, and so is fishery, fishermen sound good?

2. Some are made out of plastic, maybe a plastic factory worker for the new logo, thats about right huh??

3.Lumberjacks are not our heritage, sorry. What does race have to do with orcas or lumberjacks..?

4. Are you hinting that with the Johnny canuck as the logo, we'll be the most sucsessful and known team EVAR?? I wish.


The only reason JC represents the team is because we're named after it, yet you failed to mention that one....

heyy those actually dont luk 2 bad

...but still i prefer orca or vintage

[King of Anarchy]

I’m shocked at how quiet the news has been. I was at least expecting some fake or real leaks to come out by now.

Hopefully we’ll only have to wait another week or two.

I think this would look good on blue or white. Just wishful thinking.  VAN_208copy_1New.JPG (107.19K)

Gee I'm glad you didn't ATTACK me. That being said, it's easy to pick apart and find fault with almost EVERYTHING.

As far as the Heritage is concerned, I was talking about the CANUCKS heritage/history going back to their Pacific Coast and Western Hockey League days when Johnny Canuck was their logo or affiliated with the Vancouver Canucks. Just like the fabled "C" and "H" is a part of the Montreal Canadiens, The Maple Leaf is part of the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Indian Head part of the Chicago Blackhawks HISTORY. So what is so wrong with having something that goes back to the Vancouver Canucks EARLY days/years in Pro Hockey?

My reference to race was in regards to the Haida artwork Orca, which people claim as representing B.C. All I was saying is that HARD WORKING "lunch bucket" type workers, such as LUMBERJACKS, represent ALL races of British Columbians/Vancouverites, which would be what the "Johnny Canuck" logo would represent!

I don't understand why so many people are against that logo. It's actually of a person (whatever his "job description" is) on ice skates holding a hockey stick, and it's called, "Johnny CANUCK". It's the logo the Canucks should have used when they first entered the NHL, and if they would have, it may have still been used to this day, much like a lot of the other ones, such as Boston's, Montreal's, Toronto's, Chicago's, Detroit's, Pittsburgh's, Philadelphia's, etc.

As far as the potential success the Canucks would have if they used the Johnny Canuck logo goes, no one can say how successful they would or would not be, but they damn well sure haven't been successful with any of the OTHER logos they've used, and I don't count LOSING in two Stanley Cup finals a SUCCESS!! If the Canucks greatest claim to fame in 37+ years is LOSING in GAME 7 of the Stanley Cup finals, that is not something to be that PROUD of!

Maybe one reason why the Orca is rather popular with some Canuck fans is because it IS the Team's logo, and they feel that they have to love EVERY single thing about the team, just because it is part of the Canucks. If when they changed the logo to the Orca, they would have selected a friggin' garbage can, then the same people would probably say, "OH MY GOD, it's THE BEST LOGO IN HOCKEY" just because it's the VANCOUVER CANUCKS' "LOGO".

Like I said before, the "Stick up the Rink", "Flying V", "Downhill Skate", and "Orca" logos have had their day, and chance, why not give "Johnny Canuck" his chance? Maybe it'll FINALLY change the team's luck. It couldn't do any worse!!

[kucukachu]

that johnny canuck one totally owns...

[one team one goal]

100% it will be orca in vintage colors. My friend works for printing company and the make the stickers for the Canucks. They have 3 versions of the orca, but he say's it looks like they are going with the one that was leaked.

I don't like it
I like the stick in the rink or the orca
I just don't like how a lumberjack represents a canuck (not that an orca does)

Nothin says Canucks like Johnny Canuck. Just look at that kickass tuque!

I'd like it better with a beaver cap.

[Ukrainian_Canuck]

[Pacificgem]

There isn't one, that they'll commit to.

You do realize Johnny Canuck wasn't a 'real' person. He's a comic strip character. Kind of a political Charlie Brown.

I didn't like the stick/rink much when it was new. Absolutely hated the Flying V, the yellow version in particualr. Didn't mind the Skate once they finally got rid of the yellow version and loved the Orca jerseys immediately. That's a rather long wait for a logo I actually liked. Kind of blows your theory.

That's the first Johnny Canuck concept I can see some potential in.

Never been a fan of the old & dated Johnny Canuck, or the Paul Bunyan Vancouver Giants look.

Paul Bunyan fits the Giants. But he is not Johhny Canuck.

Meanwhile, the old Johnny Canuck drawing in circulation, needed updating.

Now this: looks promising.

And that's coming from someone who disliked the old uninspired look.

I prefer it without the green.

The logo is nice but it would never last. We would have to change our logo again five years from now. Kinda reminds me of those logo's u get to choose from when creating teams on the NHL video games.
