I personally think the fact that the Canucks' home uniforms were gold while all other teams' home uniforms were white
I liked the Sake logo but on the white jersey, not yellow.

Correct, the Seattle Metropolitans in 1917. That is a very little known fact, even in the city of Seattle.

Being the "different" kind of guy that I am, I loved the "V" and I am not ashamed of it. Then again, I liked disco too, and boy do I miss 70's clothes.

The V jersey's where the idea of a psycho from San Fran. who said it would inspire the team on to victory, thus the "V" :hypno: guess he got that one wrong.
My feelings on the yellow (or is it gold) jerseys :no: add in puke emoticon.
White was good and the roads where o.k.

right uniform, just not enough personel.

Bold assumption, if they had stuck with the V uniform, they woulda won in 94 and done better since.

I used to have a late 80's yellow Canucks home jersey. That was back in 1990, when I was 7, so it was a lot smaller than the jerseys I wear now. Don't have it anymore, unfortunately. My brother had the road black version at that time.

Right. I remember during the days when the Canucks had the orange, yellow, and black uniforms, a fan sitting in the front row of the Pacific Coliseum would wave the German flag whenever the Canucks scored a goal. The colours of the old Canuck uniform matched that of the German flag.
