Stuff, and things.
I gotta say.. this is one heck of a good Photoshop job. If the *actual* new jerseys look anything like this, we will have one sharp-dressed team.
*Update* - more info on new Canucks Jerseys can be found in my most recent post.
As most Canuck fans know, there was almost a very rare event early in the 3rd period of the Canucks’ Game 5 tilt vs Dallas. The Stars’ Louie Eriksson attempted to pass the puck to Mike Modano at the point during a delayed penalty call against the Canucks. What resulted was a bad pass which went past Modano, banked off the boards and slid all the way down the ice, just *grazing* the post, almost resulting in a Canuck goal. Amazing stuff.
Henrik thought it was going in. Did you?
I uploaded the clip to Youtube. Take a look:
According to a USA Today blog post, the Canucks are expected to introduce new uniforms (blue, green and white) on Aug 1. Apparently this has been common knowledge for some time now, but I just read this today. Further research found this from the Vancouver Sun (Feb 24/2007)
“Right now we’re ordering next year’s inventory blindly,” says the owner of a sporting goods outlet in North Vancouver. “All we’ve been told is that the colours of the uniforms will be blue, green and white, but we don’t know what the crest is going to look like. The current killer whale [or orca] jersey, as we understand it, will be kept in reserve and occasionally be used as a ‘classic’ uniform.”
