The smaller amount of green being bordered by blue just turns it into a muddy mess. Combining that with the different stripe proportions and it becomes almost undetectable at a distance, which makes it look like a Maple Leafs jersey. The jerseys as a whole suck but at least with the new socks all the proportions are consistent. What Vancouver needs to is model a set after Utica's green jerseys. Get rid of the white yoke and hems while slapping the "Johnny Canuck V" on the front and you got yourself the start to a nice identity they can stick to.

It definitely went from a dark tealish grey to just a flat grey... I was told that the teal was still there, but again, look carefully. Under no lighting does it look even remotely teal. I find that the teal clashes badly with the other accent colors. Teal, red, gold, and black screams mid-90s, see the Birmingham Barracudas. What they went with is a moderate shade of graphite accentuated with some black and accents consisting of bright colors. The designers might have had to readjust the shades 100 times to get it just right, which they did. As a result, it just looks beautiful. They made the right call, color wise.

There is something about Utica's green uniforms that would really work as the Canucks' primary look. The Canucks could be Canada's green team. The white yokes can represent the snow on the North Shore mountains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowld Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Don't think it was ever teal. Maybe a greener shade of gray than what they ended up with. I for one love the charcoal gray they ended up with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, you'd have to do a side-by-side comparison between what we saw 6 months ago from their website (an extremely dark teal-grey) and what we have today (a graphite color). You won't find teal in the color they eventually chose. You will get hints of brighter colors (as someone just noted) when the light hits it at the right angle.

Gothamite Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 I've learned that you can't trust photographs. Colors can appear very different under different lighting conditions and in different media. I'll believe that they changed the color when ColorWerx tells me they did. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If their designer used the wrong color profile when creating that graphic, the colors would not display properly. And such an error would be perfectly in keeping with the team's pattern to date.

So many angry butthurt Facebook comments declaring that it was "ruining hockey!!" despite lasting for little more than a couple weeks and having no impact on the on-ice product whatsoever because it was the offseason.

Morgan33 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 A subtle shade of green like in the graphic NYYNYR just posted would have done wonders for their identity. Don't get me wrong, what they have now turned out great but some added colour would have improved things and green is underused. Reminds me of the situation the Ducks were in back in 2006 when they chickened out on their proposed scheme with the forest and copper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 There's never been a team that used grey as their primary color before. I think LA can use an upgraded logo to help set them apart even more from Vegas, who also use mainly a black shield. The Kings home plate shield is generic. It's not ugly. It's just that I think it needs a little something more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
