I seriously want to cry!!!! I have been waiting all this time for this? Maybe this is a giant prank. This is the worst nightmare any Vancouver Canuck fan could ever of had? Thank goodness my puke pail was near by or else I would've ended up with vomit all over my laptop!

So was Zimmerman's job to make a jersey that most people would hate, forcing them to bring out another jersey in a year or two, and thus another cash grab!

He was hired to find new streams of revenue, wasn't he?!

Almost every mock up on this site looks better than those. What an embarrassment...again!

[Xerxes]

The jerseys are horrible. You know when you go into an apartment building and you smell the other people's cooking on each floor and you go "What are they cookin'?" That, plus crap!

[Beedle]

They're not too bad. Take some getting used to I suppose.

no the jonny canuck is an ugly piece of sh!t
the new jersey is a mixture of the past jerseys
and they cant make everyone happy
but i love them
and you guys will eventually grow to not hate them as well (if you are canucks fans)

[Lager Hog]

I like them.

I wasnt a huge fan of the orca, but I like the two tone of it.

[DiMiT]

I've been a Canuck fans back to the old WHL days and even though I hated the Flying V, the new Jersey tops the list as the worst ever. As a designer, there are many elements to it that are all wrong given the fact you're designing on a new Reebok Jersey whose hems are not like the jerseys of old. If they wanted to place "Vancouver" on the front of the jersey, the type font should have been more stylized instead of using ARIAL (They could have even used the font they're using for canucks.com). The type size is much too big that there is no longer a focal point, which should have been the Orca logo itself. I really don't like the bottom band as its too wide and doesn't flow along the lines of the jersey hemline. The band ends up being too close to the player's number. If they wanted to go with the bottom band, it should have been narrower and even curve along the hems to simulate a "wave". I'm really surprised Francisco Aquilini even okayed this. For as long as I've known Francisco since Templeton High years, I've never known to see him make suspect choices until now. I have to admit, some fan jersey concepts outclass this "professional" act. I'll still buy the jersey because I'm a big fan, but I rather wear my Flying Vee than to this one.

That font is nowhere near Arial. It's blocky and way more stylish than even the website font.

And I can't believe it... they spent a million dollars to monocrome the Orca logo and slap it on the vintage jerseys with a large "Vancouver" above it? Ugh! What a joke! I was at least looking forward to something impressive. Instead we get a real life photoshoped Vintage jersey with a glaring font. It would've looked fine if they'd shrunk the "Vancouver" and had it simply straight atop the logo, instead of in a huge, bold, arching font (worst part of the design, IMO, and detracts from the Orca beneath).

Ugh. Not impressive at all. I'm sure they'll grow on me, but what a letdown.

The list of online users is gone.
I wonder if that's why the website is going faster.

[Apocab]

I somehow don't think these jerseys are going to sell. Honestly what the hell were they thinking when they decided to launch these sweaters?

PROS
Back to vintage colours
Orca logo looks decent with blue and green

CONS
"Vancouver" in large font written across the chest...WTF?
The stripes don't look right on the new form fitting jerseys. Bottom stripes look like a comberbun
Stick and Rink patch looks too cartoony [what was wrong with the old one? Why didn't they use it?]
With the word mark, it looks too cowded with the C, A and the patch.

[nelson95]

hideously lame
