CS85 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 While I hate the Canucks, no hockey fan can deny that these alts are a thing of beauty. It's going to make their primaries look really weak.

uniformity Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 The primary logo sucks not the primary jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Think of it like this. The regular blue alts outsell the regular jerseys by a country mile. If these sell as good as the Canucks think they will, and given that this is probably the last year for the Canucks' VANCOUVER jerseys, I think we can see something like these alternates become the primaries, opening the door for a Johnny Canuck alternate somewhere down the line.Although I'm with Don Taylor, a blue/green/silver flying V jersey would be .

The_Admiral Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 So presumably, the Canucks got special dispensation from the NHL to eschew player names (likely) at home? Sure would stink if they had to go back and shoehorn them in.I hope this jersey design is adapted for permanent use, but I hate the stick-in-rink. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charger77 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 I'd prefer the modernize Stick in Rink logo to be on that jersey but I understand the need for the throwback. PotD May 11th, 2011looooooogodud: June 7th 2010 - July 5th 2012 Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Generic Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 I must be blind, I didn't realize the back had no name plate! I love it even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 the lack of a nameplate on the back just means that the twins need to wear HELLO MY NAME IS stickers on front so Vigneault can tell which is which. Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan33 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 a blue/green/silver flying V jerseyMake it happen, NHL.I did this concept a long time ago.This would make a killer alternate. Nobody has a jersey primarily in that shade of green and say what you want about the flying V jerseys, at the least the Canucks had the balls to forego merchandise sales to come up with something completly unique. The new colours suit this design well. Braden's version gets the nod cause theres no front numbers (when is that pointless fad going to die?)

Fans were going to buy things with their team's logo on it anyway, they certainly didn't market to what the fans wanted like they do today.

Corvus Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 They're nice, but I still think I'm the only person in the world who doesn't like the stick in rink logo.Hardly, there's a lot of people who dislike it, even in Vancouver. I'm not one of them, but the sentiment is certainly out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 The Predators facebook page is saying that a "major announcement" will be made tonight at their 2010 "Skate of the Union" event.The comments on the update prove just how few Preds fans have any clue about what is supposed to happen. Only a handful of the fan base seems to know. There's a lot of thinking that Weber will be announced as captain tonight or something along those lines, but I'm going to say there's about a very good chance that this is it.The event is from 4-8:00 CT.

Frylock Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Bam! Love emThe big, bold numbers on back and sleeves: +1The one-year-wonder white V on the sleeves: +1The bizarro, yet historically accurate (even back to the WHL days) C and A: +1The stupid, historically inaccurate neck collar and overall EDGE template: -3I'm not going to even mention the anniversary patch, which shouldn't even be there... The sum is a wash, IMO. Too bad, Canucks. So close, yet not quite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
