They should find a way to send Silovs to the A to play some games.

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...

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.

I’d be fine swapping him with Patera to be honest. He should be playing games, you’re right.

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

@Jyrki21 Is this the right colour scheme? Because I seem to remember you saying how these colours aren't even correct.

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:

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.

Oh......

VanJack · 2024-10-23T17:45:44-0400

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.

Bgav · 2024-10-23T18:29:24-0400

Those Canucks practice Skate jerseys look amazing :phew:

Mr. Canucklehead · 2024-10-23T18:43:45-0400

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.

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.

WetcoastOrca · 2024-10-23T18:53:34-0400

I’m not sure why some are putting Sherwood on the fourth line. I’d like to see him on the third line as he’s been one of our most effective all round forwards. Hits anything that moves and has been great at getting possession of the puck in the O zone. He seems like a guy ready to play a bigger role.

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.

Easy enough to send him down to Abbotsford on Friday to play the game then bring him back up on Saturday.

Nuckles · 2024-10-23T19:13:09-0400

Pettersson to NYI soon :sarcasm:

Would need to call up Patera. Must have 2 healthy goalies on the roster at all times.

Time to put $500 on Pettersson any time scorer on Saturday

Those two have never seemed to get along.

Patera would need to clear waivers on the way down right? Not familiar with the Abby goalies waiver situation. Do both guys need to clear waivers (Patera & Tolopilo?) If one doesn't, that's the guy to call up to sit for a game or two. Otherwise, probably not worth it to get Silovs in an AHL game or two.

Chase Grays logo on a black skate jersey would be absolute fire
