Carol Schram: Vancouver Canucks: A New Logo for the New Regime? and Andrew Alberts Update In his radio appearance on Tuesday, Trevor Linden suggested that the Vancouver Canucks' new era could be accompanied by a new primary logo, Johnny Canuck.

changing the logo rarely is a good move. See the fishsticks logo for the Isles...tradition means something, a goofy face on a logo ruins it.

I still prefer the skate logo for the canucks. I liked the V more than the whale, at least it was different. The black, red and yellow colour scheme was also cool and stood apart from the rest of the league. I don't really like their current colours.

Love the classic, stick-in-rink logo.

Orca logo is the worst.

I would stick with the "stick" as the main uniform, and come up with something around the Johnny Canuck logo as a third uniform. Perhaps...

I dont think changing the logo will mean squat when it comes to performance. How many teams, no matter how terrible they were, kept their logos/uniforms? Seems silly to change it up just because the team was bad.

Is this really a question?

Stick in rink. And the green, blue and white are abso-effing-lutely perfect for Vancouver.

That Orca C is an abomination.

Johnny Canuck is for a different team. Maybe fun as a 3rd jersey, but that's it.

I'd go with the black, yellow, red Canucks skate logo. Way cooler than the boring stick in rink logo....and it reminds me of the Pavel Bure era.

Gotta agree. Go with the original and stick with it. Stop changing up every decade. Add different third jerseys if you need to create more revenue.

How about a guy diving through the air ala' Bobby Orr?

Except we'd all know it was one of the Sedins diving..

They shouldn't change the logo because the team was bad. They should change the logo BECAUSE THE LOGO IS BAD.

Looks like today will be full of other people coming in here to tell us how soft our team is and we will be a bottom 5 team. I'll find other things to do from now on.

I love the idea of Johnny Canuck, but hard to see a JC logo on the front of the primary jersey.

Put Johnny Canuck in an franking space suit and on the front of the Utica Comets jersey.

I thought I had seen a Johnny Canuck logo with him climbing through the V going forward not to the side. Have to be very careful the Johnny Canuck logo doesn't look like the logo from Vachon cakes.

It is too bad for Alberts, it is hard enough to have your career end because nobody wants to sign you, but to go out with a head injury, and still feeling the effects is tough. Do the Canucks still pay his medical bills until he is recovered or there is a settlement?

He provided very little evidence to support his statement that a new logo will not impact a teams performance. Frankly, if this team changes their logo and doesn't win the Stanley Cup, I will be very surprised.

A couple of my favourite concepts...




Call me crazy but I like the old flying V jerseys. They were unique. Put a new colour twist on them and voila! Marketing gold.

I'm surprised that there is zero mention of the skate or the millionaires jerseys. I'd put them both above anything else.

It would be awesome if they rocked the Millionaires Jersey, that ones a beaut.

Haven't the Canucks been ridiculed for their ugly jersey's long enough? Do we really need a new one to laugh at?

I can only hope the nucks switch to the (modernized) stick-in-rink logo full time.

The revised stick-in-rink is simple, easy to identify and has historically significance for Vancouver. It's the obvious choice.

I also hope they bring back the 1994 away jerseys as the new 3rd jersey this year and somehow honor Gino (and the rest of the '94 gang).

The full body Johnny Canuck makes for a junior logo and the other is too Vachon

Does anyone have a list of the all-time Nucks' W/L/T by jersey style??

Bring back the orange and black jerseys as a third/alternate...so ugly, yet awesome.

The Canucks should go with something like this before the Leafs grab the idea.

Why would that matter? The stick in rink worn in the 70s during first decade is probably the worst record
