ACQUILINI: Hey, Dave, we've got about $1,000,000 to design some new jerseys.
NONIS: Great! Just deposit it into my account, and I'll send it to the designers.
ACQUILINI: Ok sounds good, make sure you do it right away!
NONIS: Oh don't worry, I'll do it ASAP!

I think it should have the word "STONED" across the top instead.
You see how disappointed Bieska was one the ice?

Hay Nelson, Why do you have a south african name, and the year they won the RWC, yet have a Kiwi as a pic?

How did the fans who were at the unveiling react?

[Ihatetomatoes]

I'm embarrassed to be a Canuck fan. A serious lack of taste coming from the front office. Weak sauce

I think the Canucks organization did their best to bring as many positive aspects from the team’s history into this new design. They took the ‘something for everybody’ approach and I’m really surprised at how many people are complaining about the new look.

The new sweater has an old-school word mark that serves as a nod to the Millionaires, who brought Lord Stanley’s Cup home to Vancouver. It features the vintage colors, arguably the most-loved color scheme the team has ever had. The Stick-n-Rink logo is on the shoulder and the Orca is on the chest. The v-neck is even kind of reminiscent of the Flying V. The only thing that isn’t somehow included on the new jersey is the downward falling skate, which is incredibly ugly and a bad omen in my opinion.

The Canucks will be wearing this jersey when they finally bring the Stanley Cup home to Vancouver. How much whining are we gonna hear from you cry-babies then?

WHO CARES how the jersey looks!

Bringing home a cup, that's all that matters.

[vannuxforlife]

yeah thats what i want to know...
the stream died until Naslund's speech...

i imagine there was a lot of cheering just for the players though
i doubt anyone reacted much

These are the CANUCKS jersey's so get use to them dont be negative...

there not ugly there nice ..

You are so ....aaarrggh...

Dont be negative. Next we will be accused of not being on the bandwagon. I'll hate it whether you like it or not.

They wasted money and time. I am very open minded but c'mon they tried to satisfy everyone at once and instead dissapointed more people.Typical BC! Very PC! Looks like the Canucks were into recycling too.

Like I said before, personally I don't mind them....but I had no idea everybody would detest them...lol. I have to agree with everyone though, there is just way too much going on at once. The VANCOUVER is way too enlarged, and I believe the mock-ups look better. I also thought we should have got rid of the horizontal stripe, because the vertical looks cooler. I definitely think the mock-ups made on this forum...each and every one of them is better than the new jersey. Hell, Pfizer's hybrid logo is f*cking dope. At the moment, I would rather the team wear Salmon Kings jerseys than the new ones....LOLOLOLOLOLOL.

Salmon King's rock

I like them, and I'm not sure why 95% of this forum doesn't agree with me.

[Hordichuk]

Pros and cons of the new jersey. First the cons:

CONS:

The orca is still there.
They're almost as badly put together as the last incarnation.
They're not the Flying Vs.

PROS:

Jan Bulis won't be in them.
They don't have effing maroon anymore.
They match the Dan Cloutier jersey I have.

[Sonic_Youth]

I think the question we all need to ask ourselves is "How will we feel when Markus Naslund raises the Cup to the air this June wearing one of these jerseys?"

The answer? Bloody fantastic.

[FinnHawk]

not awful, but they coulda been MUCH MUCH better... I'm kinda dissapointed...

[canucks freak254]

Once again our jersey is the ugliest in the league (except for the NYI)

It has Vancouver written above the logo and I hate that. They should have just kept the logo.

[Topshelfer]

Should of went with this logo


These take some time to get used to

Because nowhere is it law that we have to agree with you, and are thus free to express our own opinions on the subject, contrary or otherwise.

Question: Where did the figure of 1 Million dollars spent come from? was this just something someone said and everyone took it for truth of is there some concrete evidence that that was the cost.. because that seems to be the main complaint from everyone "we spent a million dollars WWWWWWAAAAHHHH"
