I'd be willing to bet a large sum of money that the new logo is exactly that. The jerseys will be in the same style as the Fin's Friends one, including the "Vancouver" wordmark. I'm 99.9% sure of this, quote me on it.

Then the jerseys should be like the ones on page 82

Yup, the only difference being that the wordmark on the home jersey will be "Vancouver," just like the away. Also, the logo on the away jersey will not have white ice, the ice will be a royal blue, just like in the Fin's Friends graphic. In addition, the shoulder patch will be a more modernized stick-in-rink logo. I guarantee it.

I hope that this isn't the jersey. I can't stand the whale logo anymore. If they spent a Million Dollars on changing colors of the jersey then the wiz kids in the front office could of paid me half that and my 2 year old daugther could of made something better with her crayons.

I just hope we have horizontal stripes on our jerseys. I hate the vertical ones.

This is what the above logo would look like on the site:

That actually looks pretty good.

Where did this "One Million Dollars on the new logo" come from anyway? To my knowledge it came from Dave Pratt. The same Dave Pratt who said the Canucks kept trying to trademark new/different logos and they kept coming back denied b/c they were already used. Nonis said that was NOT true, and Pratt said his source was wrong then. Could he have gotten the one million dollars idea from the same source???

If it really was a million dollars, you gotta realize that that whole sum was not given to the person who "designed" the jersey. That number probably came from any money spent changing anything to do with the old logo as well as the design itself. They will probably have a big ad campaign after the new sweaters are unveiled....you think thats free???

they had to re trademark everything. thats why it cost so much

[m2kmike]

If they say it cost 1,000,000 for the redesign they are referring to designs of materials. So paint, jersey fabrics, trade marking fees, etc. are not going to be in that fee. They wouldn't need to get a new trademark for a change in logo colors. Do you think I would be able to use the canucks logo if I changed it to red, yellow, and black?

What may be involved is that their would be design cost in developing promotional materials, and stuff gm place with the new color scheme.

This is the second thing I don't like about what might be our new jerseys... (The first is not using green in the logo) The new modernized vintage logo. People liked the vintage logo as is. This won't sell anymore jerseys this way, and could get some people to hold off. Why go to the trouble of making a jersey look more retroish, only to make the vintage logo look more modern.

It looks OK with the bruins shoulder log because it's a logo that hasn't been in use for a long time.

Why would they modernize the vintage logo. The new one looks bad.

you're right, it really doesn't make much sense. Unless they really didn't want to be retro -
in which case the rest of the jersey doesn't make sense.

I'm wondering also, while the graphics look very underwhelming, how these will look on the ice.
I'm still hoping these aren't the jerseys, but if they are, i sure hope they look better on the players
than they do in that stupid cartoon.
