DarthMelvin Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Hmmm none of those so far... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go Faulk Yourself Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 No. Enough with new jerseys. Our franchise has enough already. I don't mind if we go back to older ones with a bit of a different look (See stick in rink) but for gods sake, no new jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush17 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I am open to the idea some of these are nice. Be interesting having a new core with a new jersey. Be a great cash grab for the org and it would be exciting. I would grab a new jersey if we had a new logo. The linden era :D I like our current jerseys but hey if we are changing the identity why not. We should see how the designs look with player names like Horvat, Shinkaruk, Cassels :D I like the ones with the stripes with V the one above and the one on the top left with johnny canuck the guy above mentioned. We need something that screams prestige, confidence, and eliteness. Love that stripe 1 with v and the one on the left the most :D I love the Blue and Green theme it screams greatness.

BCNeil Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 They already have too many styles. Look at other teams...the Flames, the arena is all red.Vancouver is a mismatch of several jerseys all different colours.Maybe if they gave a free one for each season ticket holder seat. It would look better if everyone was in the same colour.But just changing it for the sake of changing it, screams cashgrab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuongovsTuuka Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 No, most of the concept jerseys are hideous. Stay with what we have and use the skate jerseys as thirds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theminister Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I'm not really stuck on changing or staying the same. I really like the stick in rink and would prefer that full time if I had my choice. I think Blue and Green is the way to stay but I'd be interested in seeing a mockup of the stick in rink in the old colours. As much as I like our current colour scheme the Red, Black, Orange and Gold is unique. Too many team's jerseys look similar these days. Too much blue and black. Edit: I found this… not terrible but raw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just changing it for the sake of changing it, screams cashgrab Given the price of season tickets and the fans being unsure. That might be a great way to get members to renew easier next year. Wish I was a season ticket holder but heck I would buy a new Jersey if we kept the blue and green theme with a new design and or logo. I personally like the top left one here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry Goose Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 For a jersey like that, I'd much rather see the rounded Johnny Canuck logo found in this concept: That is a really nice design, especially the circle around the johnny canuck. the mint green though is a little gawdy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush17 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Can someone here call into Scott Rintoul tonight on team 1040 and bring up this idea. Be cool to hear this idea reach the mainstream. I would do it but I have anxiety so I avoid situations like that. :D Just an idea I wanted to throw out :D Will send u lots of hearts if you do!

aqua59 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Please. No new jerseys. Flash won't change a thing. Substance on the ice changes an identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Marchand Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I just want this team to keep a jersey set for more than 10 years. Besides, Gillis didn't introduce these new jerseys, Aquilini did, and it happened while Nonis was still GM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanucklehead10 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I don't mind the logo right now, I just wish they'd enlarge the Orca, make a bit of tweaks here and there, and get rid of the ugly "Vancouver" spewed across the jersey.... almost like how San Jose's jerseys (which look much better now) have changed throughout the past couple years while keeping the shark. LOL @ the people suggesting the Johnny Canuck Logo. Seriously?? I mean sure its a neat analogy with our team being the canucks and having Johnny Canuck on the front, but honestly, leave that type of design for the AHL. The logo looks more fitting for a minor league rather than professional league. In hindsight, would it really be worth it to have the official symbol for the only professional sports franchise in this city, to be a lumberjack with a pair of skates and a stick on the front? A fictional, action character as our logo for 10+ years? Johnny Canuck doesn't even have any relevance to the city of Vancouver other than the name, "Johnny Canuck". If any change; the "V", the skate, or the stick in the rink >>> Johnny Canuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunshygillis Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 A jersey change would be nice. Although the current unis are pleasing to the eye, they're not really all that intimidating. Not saying a jersey dictates whether a team is intimidating nor that players are intimidated by the colour of a jersey but if I would choose a colour scheme that would indicate a team that gets pushed around that would be it. Something darker, like navy or black would be nice. Greens and light blues just don't really cut it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YaK Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 No, a jersey change isn't necessary. That said, if I were to support any change it would be to retire the orca. I'd prefer any of Johnny Canuck, the "V", or the stick in rink logos. Also, I do like "VANCOUVER" written on the jersey, even if I am in the minority.

whcanuck Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I personally like the skate and the stick n' rink the best. Either of those would be awesome. I love the skate because that's what they wore when i started cheering for em back in the early 90s, and I always thought they looked tough/intimidating/sharp in those. Full time stick n' rink would be a great choice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Fig Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I'm all for the original stick-in-rink and striping from 1970 (not the 1973 alterations in striping). But the REAL stick-in-rink, not the cartoonish one they presently use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlurTriX Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I always thought that this would make a good jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
