Baggins, your an idiot & that is not OK

You're the idiot if you think the Orca isn't going to stay. Not only did Zimmerman say it was going to, Nonis did too, plus, i'm sure those leaks are legit.

I didn't say it wouldn't stay. I do think that it should be tossed. It sucks

I think ownership might be reconsidering its decision to keep it though, although they will anyway. I don't know how else you let the media report that they will release it on Aug 1st, then have Mitchell go on the radio and say Aug 2nd, then turn around & say we aren't doing either, infact we don't know when we will release it. Sounds to me like they already know they screwed up & they're hoping the that all of the hype will blow over. Whatever is going on, this whole situation is very Bush League.

Baggins is the last person you should be calling an idiot. Actually, you shouldn't be calling anybody an idiot, since you're a prime example of one.

I know a guy who had a vintage color orca on a vintage jersey, all he did was go to The Hockey Shop, they did it for him, he did work there though.

That's awesome! Do you know if The Hockey Shop does jerseys with custom logos for anybody? I don't think this was your guy though, he said that he makes them himself and sells them to others.

[Capt.Awesome]

The canucks pod cast symbol is the new color, that is there little hint.

Roozter are you a Canucks fan? I've yet to hear anything positive come out of your mouth, why don't you go cheer for the Oil? We don't need fans like you!!!

ok & what is this based on? If you stick up for someone like baggins, then you're the idiot. But i'm sure he can stick up for himself with yet another lame reason why the orca is so great

I have nothing positive to say about having free willy on the jerseys. As far as the team goes I've been supporting them through every jersey style, losing & winning season since the late 70's. I just think its about time they woke up on stopped bastardizing our jerseys. You are the ones who attack anyone who doesn't like the Orca.

Why because you don't like hearing how much that whale sucks, you can't except how much people hate it?

[Roozter]

And for the record I havn't seen anything that you've posted that was even the slightest bit intelligent whether I agreed with it or not.

I'm sorry, what?

I'd appreciate if you actually read my posts. I don't attack anybody who doesn't like the Orca. I attack you because you're an idiot. I respect the opinions of others, not everbody is going to like the same things that I do. But you're just plain ignorant. If you actually had an argument rather than just saying the Orca sux LOLz then I would actually show you some respect. Besides, you're the one who said that anybody that likes the Orca is a bandwagon fan. I'll show you some respect as soon as you respect the fact that people like the Orca and it's not just a corporate logo.

Really? The only person I've heard say that the Orca sucks is you. Okay so let's count how many people that is... Oh! It's one! So who are these "people" you speak of?

Lol! Yeah, I can't "except" how much people hate it.

Yup thats it. Thread over. The ipod is part of it to thats the 1 million dollars spent right there, so they could use that symbol because there is no way u can spen 1 mil to change colours on a uni.

you could if you were switching to vintage colors, the seattle seahawks also have a native design logo featuring a blue/green color scheme. Perhaps the canucks logo/unis greatly resemble seahawks with color change... that could possibly cause a degree of resistance solved by some hefty monetary agreement, just a thought.

The Seahawks colours used to be much the same as the Canucks' vintage colours. Then in 2002 the Seahawks changed their colours to a dark blue, a silvery blue, and neon "XBox" green.

Even if the colours were the same, there would be no legal problems. One logo is a bird, for a football team. The other is a whale, for a hockey team. I don't think Joe Schlebotnik would wander into GM Place wondering where Hasselbeck and Alexander are, and why the grass is all white.

haha, good call, just throwing it out there because we are so close to seattle in proximity and both logo's are native in design. but your explanation makes alot more sense.

I'm all for the vintage shift in design, being a seahawks fan as well, all of my clothes are slowly becoming green and blue anyways. IMO, ocean blue and forest green screams westcoast, also, from what I've seen so far the orca seems easier on the eyes, and much more stylized if shifted to a two tone vintage scheme.

I know some folks here may disagree with the whale, and I'm a big fan of simplified vintage "stick in rink" also, but what are we gonna do here - shoot fin for wearing a crappy jersey and toss the orca design? think of the kids here people... fin is here to stay. I don't see alot of toddlers hanging around "stick in rink" man.

edit: and for everyone thinking johnny canuck right now, a life size johnny would be about as creepy as that burger king dude, not cool. (not to mention he'd be carrying an axe...)
