NHL  > Vancouver Canucks  > I don't want Vancouver to win the Stanley Cup because of their uniform
May 28, 2011, 06:51 AM
The three current uniforms that the Canucks have been using are ugly and look very unprofessional. They look like college hockey uniforms. If they win the Cup with those uniforms, there's no going back. The original uniform with the stick, the uniform with the C and the Shark head, and the uniform with just Vancouver on it, all ugly!! Their black and orange uniform from the 80s-90s was the best. The black circle with the orange outerlining, and the orange Canucks lettering shaped like a skate, that was the best! I would want them to win if they were going to use that uniform in the finals, but I don't think they will! Boston has a classic uniform, so they should win the Cup!!

The best Vancouver Canucks uniform ever

Could there be a more air-headed comment than to base win expectation on a team's uniform? The Canucks will win this series (probably in 5 games) because they are the fastest, most talented club in the NHL. As far as uniforms go, take a look at them again. The native logo is not only super-appropriate to the geography, but combined with the blue for the
Pacific Ocean makes them arguably the most descriptive of their city and perhaps the BEST uniforms in the league. Go orca uniforms!!!

I am routing for Canucks because their uniforms are pretty close copy to what the Hartford WHALERS used to wear.

You've got to be kidding. That yellow, orange and black uni was the ugliest one ever created for a professional sports team in North America. I'm not big on the whale design, but at least the blue and green colour scheme is very attractive.

As a Canucks fan who is learning to embrace our hated status I'm curious if other teams dislike Boston.
Not looking to start anything and I'm not asking about the Bruins compared to the Canucks.
I keep reading posts from Boston fans that seem to indicate that every other team thinks that Boston is a team of honour.
Is this true?
