He does OUTSTANDING work and his ability to do sports-related artwork is absolutely incredible. I still have the Vancouver Sun article regarding the logo.

My problem with the uni and logo they have now is that it's confused--it doesn't know whether it's new or old, vintage or modern. That's not a problem in and of itself, but -- as many people have already pointed out -- the whale and the wordmark somehow just aren't really that effective.<BR/><BR/>My twoMaltexohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09330799867354734811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1981590198587306470.post-91185969444589946162008-07-24T19:05:00.000-04:002008-07-24T19:05:00.000-04:00I'm a fan of the new logo, but there isn't really ...I'm a fan of the new logo, but there isn't really anything wrong with their logo they have now. Yes it is getting old and it may be time for a change I'll give you that. But to comment on mitchellirons.com comments about the "whale having nothing to do with the Canucks" is so off it's not even funny. The killer whale is very Canadian. West coast Canadian yes.

This was the exact logo that was created in the mid-90's. I wish I had the artist's name!

It appeared in the Vancouver Sun and was designed by a local artist around the same time the whale logo became the team's primary design. The Canucks organization liked it so much that they purchased it from the artist to possibly use down the road as an alternate logo.
