Old school
As expected, the Canucks celebrated their past when they unveiled their 3rd jersey yesterday at a news conference. It features the stick-in-rink logo we love and a Johnny Canuck on a V shoulder patch. Just think of every logo the team had before the skate one and throw it all in one jersey. (But seriously, it looks better on Willie and Mattias than how it looked on the leaked photo.)
If you missed it, here are some photos and the following is a short video on the concept.
The team will wear this jersey for the first time tomorrow night against the Leafs.
Personally I don’t like the third jersey… its so plain and not original its not even worth wearing. It is basically the same jersey.. basically a money grab attempt in my opinion…
I think something in green like the brampton battalion jersey would be nice. Swap the blue and the green would do it. my thoughts http://jib-sports-culture.blogspot.com/2008/11/canucks-third-jersey.html

A predominantly green jersey would’ve looked cool. I agree with your post that a third jersey typically should be more different than the regular jersey, but I’m not sure Canucks fans are ready for yet another “look”. That and I subscribe to the conspiracy theory that the stick-in-rink will be the team’s regular jersey sometime in the future.
