DrJockitch Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I like the matte black. This feels like chasing a trend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RupertKBD Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I'm with DeNiro....they look a lot better than those Gold and Silver buckets that the Knights and Kings wear.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wai_lai416 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 chrome is actually crap.. they should have gone with matte instead.. like the matte black they use with the skate jersey.. it looks clean and slick.. matte blue woulda been nice over those shiny plastic ones they use now or this chrome color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goalie29 Posted January 23 Author Share Posted January 23 I wonder if we will see these on the road with their white jerseys? Kind of like what San Jose has done, only shiny? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nostalgia aside, a plate of spaghetti on Halloween is not a good look. Nope. They're the best jerseys we've ever had. Ask the players what they think. Keep in mind the new material and design elements that are much different than previous black skate jerseys. We also have HD tv these days, so they pop now compared to the olden days.

Orange and yellow is a gross color combo. There's a reason why no one uses it other than at Halloween. The current Royal Blue is gorgeous.

BCNeil Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Nope. Don't like them for Vegas or LA. Don't like these either. Are the Flames getting red ones? The Oilers bright orange? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they're certainly part of Canucks history and not going anywhere, but I can agree to disagree with you. I think they look badass, and growing up watching Butcher, Gino, Bure, Linden, Ronning, Maclean, etc., they sure make me feel like the rough and tumble high-scoring Canucks hockey style is back in town, and the new design looks better than ever. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strawbone Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Buncha cranky old curmudgeons around here. I think they're fun as an alternate helmet. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6of1_halfdozenofother Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Just now, Cold said: Oooh! Now that’s pretty phenomenal one up manship! I wonder what Vegas would do in response? Probably put spinning roulette wheel holograms on their lids, or one-armed bandit screen holograms - with the wheels still spinning until someone scores. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provost Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 I will wait and see what they look like in game action in 4k, but it is really meh to me. I don’t hate them, but don’t think they are better than the regular helmets. When I saw the flat black helmets in 4k they immediately got my love. That whole uni looks really good and makes the blue ones seem boring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it seems, since the new rendition of the skate with the matte helmet... The old orca has been left in the dust! Maybe bringing a little pop to overall look, might help level up the orca jersey? Regardless, the blue lids are way less loud in comparison to the Kings and Knights.... Maybe not even tacky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyone Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 should have a LED light installed on the top that is linked to the goal light... score a goal and the whole teams helmets go off flashing red. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mando27 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 The Black matte helmets look better, but maybe these metallic blue ones will blind the opposition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
