I've never heard any reason people like it beyond "it reminds me of my childhood/early 20s" or "the black is intimidating".
The colour scheme is objectively better. I mean, you are telling me that this isn't kino?

Although, I love the millionaires jerseys the most. Not everything has to be about what the city is about. Now if they actually made the first nations jerseys the actual jerseys that would be way cooler than just the orca.

We don't really have the depth for something like that to happen, IMO. At least one of those guys are likely to remain on the 3rd line even in a best case scenario.

I'm guessing your hope is that Joshua and Suter push them down, but who would be the third guy?

Could maybe see something like this, though, I suppose:

DeBrusk - Miller - Boeser
Hoglander - Pettersson - Garland
Joshua - Suter - Heinen
Aman/Sprong - Blueger - Sherwood

Personally, I've never really bought the narrative that Suter is a better 3C than Blueger.
The idea would be to add a top 6 forward

One more player isn't bad. All you'd have to do is get a better top 9 player than Heinen and the 3rd line is now the 4th line. Lekkerimaki?? Haha

Huh, you tagging in for backup after being destroyed by facts and logic? :nono::box::pb:

He's one of the biggest fans I know of the skate and colour scheme but he knows that the colour scheme the Canucks use isn't the one you actually all rave about.

Canucks catching the Pens on a back-to-back. In a perfect world, the Pens and Oilers go to OT on Friday night......and the Pens fly out late, arriving in VanCity in the wee hours of the morning.

When you catch a break with a tired team, you have to bring the hammer down. Might be one of the last times Canuck fans get to see Crosby and Malkin on the ice together though.

Not a fan of the retro new stripes. Should have at least matched the originals they were to mirror.
