Lego Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 Hello, this is my first concept. I tried to make the new johnny canuck logo work.here it is!p.s. the pant strips are supposed to be straight, but the pants look odd if I make them straight on the conceptSecond Try:I tossed the black, double blue, fixed the away helmet and made the logo's smaller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aci Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 #1- Double blue is overused these days#2- The black alt really doesn't need black pants, and the whole idea of a black jersey for a navy team seems pointless in and of itself.#3- The white jersey needs a white helmet, a la the NHL rulebook.

Frenchie Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 I don't think that Johnny Canuck works as a primary logo, it's too cartoony, to stereotyped, novelty to work.And I'm pretty sure the majority of Canucks fans are begging for more green - I appreciate you trying to be different, but different just to for the heck of it can be dangerous, and the Canucks have done that too many times already.The black does seem uncalled for, and reminds me a lot of the Kings'.Keep tweaking and playing with colour combinations... @Frenchie_TO Owner of the Rochester Americans of the MLH Owner of the Toronto Frenchies of the GCFHL6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryoma Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 The first thing that I thought when I saw this was "Ugh, the NHL doesn't need more teams with multiple shades of blue." Maybe it's because green is my favorite color, but why would you take out a distinguishable accent color that is used by only two other NHL teams and replace it with another blue? The Canucks have always been known for their "out there" uniforms, so to speak - this is just incredibly dull and unoriginal. I like the idea of having Johnny Canuck as the crest, and I certainly appreciate the fact that you're not using the "stick in rink" logo that everyone seems to love for some reason, but I think if you want this concept to stand out among others you need to produce something with a bit more originality and individuality. Keep trying.Also, drop the black alt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthStar74 Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 That looks like the LA Kings jersey colors.. at least stick with the current Canucks colors.. a green version of that would be interesting to see....

GMW79 Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 The skate was always my favorite Canucks logo, and it actually looks really cool this way. Vancouver should go with this and Johnny Canuck and the V-Johnny as alts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uniformity Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Can someone please tell me one redeemable quality of that skate logo? Really now. It's unattractive, incredibly dated, has absolutely nothing to do with the team name AND it has lasers flying all over the place.It has never made anyone's list of the best hockey logos. The only list it ever makes is someone's personal best amongst a bunch of crappy Canucks' logos - that most people don't like. It's like choosing a douche over a turd sandwich.Anyone?

andrewharrington Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 You know, even though they always make everyone's lists of ugliest uniforms of all time, I think the 'V' jersey has a ton of potential, one, because it's unique, and two, because it's inherently difficult to come up with an appropriately descriptive logo for a team named 'Canucks.' It's also their second-longest tenured uniform set, behind the navy blue and burgundy orca set.I think ditching the waist stripes in favor of the large V across the front of the sweater would look great. Use the new stick-in-rink logo on the shoulders, you could have something. I think the colors of the original V uniform didn't do it any favors, along with the fact that they tried to incorporate countless other Vs into the uniform as well.

Though your suggestion would, I think, look pretty awesome. As long as they kept the Vs to the sweater and left them off the pants and socks.
