Hints Given Regarding New Vancouver Look

from the Vancouver Sun,

In case you’ve been hiding under a puck, tomorrow’s the day the Vancouver Canucks’ newest jersey will be unveiled….
There have been rumours aplenty about tomorrow’s debut, and blogs and message boards have been abuzz—will the new sweater be ugly, will it be bold, will it be the magic that finally brings home the Cup?
The truth has been locked up tighter than Roberto Luongo’s curls, though Orca Bay’s top dog, Chris Zimmerman, has teasingly suggested that the current whale logo could be a primary factor in the new design.
Oh, and that the vintage hockey stick logo, and perhaps even the old Johnny Canuck logo that Luongo wears on his goalie mask, might also be incorporated, maybe as shoulder patches.

read on and a history of the Cauncks jersey…

The Vancouver Sun has it wrong.  The Canucks wore the following uniforms:
1) The stick-in-rink, 1970-78
2) The butt-ass ugly flying V, 1978-c. 1985
3) The downward skate with the flying Vs on the shouulder patches, home uni in yellow, c. 1985-90
4) The downward skate, 1990-c.97
5) Free Willy, c. 1997-2007.

The Sun missed the downward skate with the flying V shoulder patches in yellow, a uniform even worse than the flying V of the late 70s/early 80s.
