It's my favorite Jersey of all time and I wasn't even around when they were original. But I must say they definitely are intimidating...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?I've never heard any reason people like it beyond "it reminds me of my childhood/early 20s" or "the black is intimidating".
I’d be fine swapping him with Patera to be honest. He should be playing games, you’re right.They should find a way to send Silovs to the A to play some games.
The idea would be to add a top 6 forwardWe 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.

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??

Huh, you tagging in for backup after being destroyed by facts and logic?
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.

Similar to that redone rink logo jersey with the 2 thick green stripes, not vibing with the thick neon yellow and red stripes.I agree that the best skate jersey is the true vintage colour set (red or orange), which was last worn in their 50th anniversary season, I think. The current black skate alternates are a "modernized" take on it. It's still nice (to me, suck it, @Vector), but not as good as the classics.
Yes, I much prefer the older skate jersey with the thin red stripe as compared to the fat red and fat yellow. Same with the yellow vs black background on the skate. Maybe it's just nostalgia talking though.Similar to that redone rink logo jersey with the 2 thick green stripes, not vibing with the thick neon yellow and red stripes.
Have noticed that the trend is to go thicker on the stripes, like with NJ's red and LA Kings with their chevy logo ones this season.
