Last night C&B posted the new Canucks jersey photos and about 90% of poll respondents voted positively—it broke down as “Not Bad” (48%) or they “Love it” (42%) with “Hate it” taking just 9% thus far. A small sampling, but that’s some pretty positive feedback all things considered, given the frightful history of Canucks jersey unveilings.
But Joseph Ruttle at The Province‘s Canucks Nation is wondering about copyright infringement when he looks at the shoulder logo and compares it to Vachon bakery.
Oh my. Can’t really argue with the inspiration for Johnny Canuck looking at that. Although for the record, I’d never even heard of Vachon before today, and yet now I’ll probably be thinking of the May West every time I look at this new logo. So maybe this’ll work out pretty well for the bakery either way.

Nope. Never even seen them! I’m pretty out-of-touch on my baked products, huh?
