ColeJ Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 ok... so, the canucks are owned by orca bay, right? and that's why they changed logos to an orca design... well, i was thinking... if they were to sell the canucks, would they want to keep wearing the orca? the uniforms are fairly popular, but the logo would be a little awkward feeling to some people.so, i tried to change the logo.... just a little bit, though. i wanted to keep the same feel to it, only without the whale. no need to completely change the team's identity.i also tried to take the name "canucks" a little more literally, so i made it feel more canadian... a maple leaf, a brighter red, and a red alternate sweater.i also switched the blues up a little, because i'm not a huge fan of navy blue.so, ANY comments are always more than welcome on my concepts.

OnWis97 Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 I like the primary jerseys--Love the leaf on the logo.I am not fond of the Red jersey. I would also remove the cracks from the "C".I suppose the Leafs would try to block this logo.Overall I think it is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrdevil Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 I'd much rather have the darker blue as the primary color on the home dark jersey, and the logo.Didn't orca bay sell the team?? Anyway, I like this alot, just like I said I rather have the darker blue be the main color and th elight be a secondary trim color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waffles Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Are the gradients there to simulate depth or are they part of the uniform?Cuz I think I'd like 'em more without the gradient. But the design itself is very solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the design itself is very solid. those aren't gradients at all. it's supposed to simulate shiny silver, like the canucks jerseys currently use...i think it looks better to show it as "shiny" silver, as opposed to flat grey... because some teams (edmonton and phili) really use flat grey, instead of silver.........i wonder if the voting would be any different if i'd explained this before?

Phil Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 I said other because I actually like the current logo. Who cares whether it's related to the owning company? The logo combines the native artistry of the region and the native wildlife of the region into a logo that is very much Vancouver, if not Canucks. And although the logo may not be the best representation of 'Canucks', anything else would just perpetuate some stereotype and the white lumberjacks would cry foul on PC grounds and then where would we be? I'm kidding of course, but the point is, it does a good job of representing Vancouver. Just like the Rangers' statue of liberty logo does nothing to represent the name "Rangers", or countless other examples.That said, I think you have a good idea here, and if you changed the C to a V, I'd totally support that logo as an alternate, but with the Maple Leafs prominently featuring a maple leaf in their primary (go figure), I like the way Vancouver is right now.

See Red Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 I think it'd be difficult to disgrace the team beyond how Bertuzzi and the all-out cheap play of others on the team have done so already -- but regardless, I voted the one right before other. I think they're great regardless. Great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STL FANATIC Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 I think these are really nice. I wouldn't mind some more white in the non white jerseys though. I also think the logo looks kinda funny on the red jersey. Maybe put the rink C on that one for the crest? I also was thinking a V would be cool instead of a C, and apparently SyPhi had the same thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zer0dotcom Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 I had to take a second look at these, check out the details...I really like this design. The logo really changes the whole team idenity to a nationalistic theme (it is Canucks, right?)The red uniforms work really well in that undertone.I like the powderish blue uniform, making the navy a highlight stripe works well. very nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCScout76 Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 ColeDMDI'm liking them! What great work - I even like the red alt. jersey. Fantasic work - the Leaf in the "C" is very well done. You do good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
