dustyb58 Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Just wondered what it might look like to take that ugly V jersey and put the new colors... Also notice the old Canucks logo on the back, I thought that was a nice touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbman21 Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 I did one about a year and 1/2 ago for the first ever 'Evolution Challenge'.Let me did back a ways and I'll post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Falcon Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 That's much better than their old colors. The ice skate logo in red and yellow always made me think that some skater lost control and plowed into a hot dog stand at full speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VitaminD Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Meh. They don't do anything for me.Since the old "V" was more or less the logo, it went all the way almost to the waist on the front. And part of what made it so memorable were the Hallowe'en colors. So loud, so offensive to the eye... but yet you can't turn away. Basic red/white/blue doesn't qork quite as effectively. And in Canada, those colors in those shades belong to the Canadiens; the Canucks use a darker red and navy blue, as well as silver.Also, by coloring in the shoulders on your design, the "V" doesn't stand out as much toward the top of the jerseys. Looking at these from the front, the design reminds me more of a fighter plane coming at me than just a "V". "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayzcat Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 Great concepts. Skate & V . . . I would buy any one of these in a second. I understand the team has/will have new ownership. Perhaps they'll look to change that terrible whale logo (based on the corporate parent and definitely trying to leverage the success of the sharks). Nice job to all who created these.Jayzcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's hilarious.Secondly, the V did not come down to the waist:I colored the shoulders the same way they were, it's blue where they were black on the old jersey.

Stampman Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 Sorry--but that V jersey was one of the most hideous things I have ever seen--why bring it back?I still appreciate the effort and all, but I don't get why people like that design...

jayzcat Posted July 9, 2005 Share Posted July 9, 2005 There's just something about that jersey that I think is outstanding . . . wish I had bought one at the time but I was only a kid. I would love to see it come back in the new colors . . . unfortunately like most concepts on this sites . . . they're better than what the team uses and probably will never change.

It'd be nice to see it for one of those "One Night Stand" things, but other than that, HELL NO, don't bring that back. They would get laughed out of the arena like they were in the late 70s/early 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbman21 Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Here is my afforementioned Canucks updated retro from about a year ago.I originally did it in MS paint and for this reposting I upgraded it to a vector version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmered Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Robbman, if that jersey existed tomorrow I would buy one.I think their dark blue is darker, and light blue is lighter, but that's really nice.(I wouldn't get a Bertuzzi though, I'd get a Naslund.) Oh, and I've got a site.Footy Jumpers Dot Com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
