For simplicity’s sake, I’ll avoid going into the minute details of some of the minor tweaks these uniforms had (examples - Vs on the forearms of the rink and stick, or the skate jersey trim being changed from orange to red)

Simply put, let’s rank them. There’s the following choices;

1. The original stick in rink uniforms.

I'll be honest, other than the Skate jerseys our Uni's have by and large ranged from the mediocre to the downright terrible

1...Current (with the word mark removed I can easily get behind these)
2...Heritage Stick In Rink
3...The Skate

Canucks should stick with their current uniforms and colour scheme from here on out..Updates on the same theme are fine.

I think the black skate jersey is awesome and #1 but the white version is bad and #4. Makes the black version a perfect 3rd uniform.

People are too bent out of shape over the “corporate” orca bay logo thing and take it out on the jerseys that it made its debut on.

This is an extremely sharp uniform.

Agreed. The colouration also matches the orca logo a lot better than current blue and green. It's up there with the skate as the most complete and clean overall uniform. All the yacking about the corporate logo is just noise. It's not the jersey that I think they should be wearing full time but man it gets way too much flack.

That being said, I think the blue and green colour scheme is more representative of Vancouver, so that should stick. I think you have to go with the best logo matching the current colours, which is the stick in rink. Granted it needs some tweaking to make the whole uniform work better. The 50-year throw back is close but not quite there.

The black/white skate jerseys are a solid uniform but I don't think they suit a modern Vancouver. I love em but I am perfectly happy with them making an annual special event appearance.

The V is certainly unique and holds its place in hockey history just for that. But yeah no.

I will be happy enough if the blue and green orca gets tweaked so there's actually symmetry and a connection between the ensign and the shirt. Green and White full collar, and green trim around the whale. That's all it needs. Just do it and lock it in.

Still waiting for the Canucks to get it right after 50 years lol.

Conscientious objection here. You can't on the one hand include no.s 5 and 6 as two different options (and they're both effectively the 1970s ones with a different logo anyway), yet group all "skate" jerseys into one. The pre-1989 skate jerseys were basically the flying Vs but with the logo on the front (yellow home jersey, V-shapes still everywhere), and quite distinct from the 1989-92 ones, let alone the change to red.

I particularly like the application of the grey/silver on the dark set.
