In my opinion, a "Canuck" logo should be something unmistakably Canadian. Sure, you can point out that it has connection with the native art, but it's not really 'Canadian' culture. The stick and rink is great. Johnny Canuck is good but a little cartoonish. The skate logo, as flashy as it was, was still 'Canadian'.Maybe I’m in the minority but I love our logo. The orca breaking through the ice like the Orcas in our region break through the water just looks awesome and speaks to the beauty of the area. The connection with native art also ties to the area and C for Canucks tries to link it with the team name. just looks great.
I can give two ****s about the word mark. take it out leave it on, don’t care.
What I don’t like about our logo is how there’s no connection to what A Canuck is. That’s no fault of the logo, that’s the fault of whoever designed the team name with no attachment to anything recognizable in reality, and you’d have the same problem with any logo you try and design for that name. The name is also the reason our jersey keeps changing. You don’t have that problem if you’re the Sharks or the Jets because your name relates to something tangible.
Don’t get me wrong, I also love our team name for many reasons. Just makes it damn hard to market the team to new fans.
Question. Did they make the Orca bigger with the extra space now hat Vancouvers gone, or did they leave it the same size to make the transition to jersey ads seem more gradual?
Orcas you can find in literally every ocean and most seas. There's nothing Canadian about them.
They should just go back to the stick in rink and 'stick' with it permanently, perhaps changing other details on the jersey over time but keeping the logo the same.
