Poll: Sharks vs Canucks
Saturday · Aug 25 · 2007 | 4:39 AM PDT |  | |
SHARKS | CANUCKS |
Place your vote and then feel free to leave a comment as to how you came to your decision. Tell all your friends to drop in and vote! The more voices heard, the more accurate the results! By the way, just as with the Lightning and Senators, when the Canucks unveil their new logo, it will take effect in the tournament that same day or the next. We're not expecting sweeping changes, just a recoloring of the same logo.

ThiS is kind of turning into A popularity contest.I loVE the Canucks but I think the Sharks should win this. I honestly thought the Sharks would win this but sinCe Vancouver is a mad hockey city the Canucks are winning. Not that it reaLly matters but I want tO see who has the best logo in the faNs' Eyes not wHIch team has the biGgest fanbase. Lets vote for tHe best logo here.
GO CANUCKS GOO!!
YOU SEXY SON OF A GUN.
Are you serious the shark is eating a f***in hockey stick. Thats awesome. What is the Canucks logo supposed to be anyway. It just looks like a poorly drawn shark.
-Keith Harris
I voted San Jose Sharks---
GO SJ SHARKS!!!!
I love the people that don't understand the Canucks logo. It represents the city of Vancouver! Haida art style and Orcas found off the west coast. Makes sense to me!
Although I'm torn because I love the sharks logo as well. These two teams shouldn't be up against each other yet!
KILLER whales eat sharks. There's your winner right down to the food chain.
To whoever called an orca whale more fierce than a shark, i'd like to see you with a great white.
Guess who's going to win.

CANUCKS Longer serving logo going up against a New logo.... No contest The Sharks Design is WICKED but it hasn't even seen a NHL game yet so its not in the RACE YET!

Vancouver's is at least a bit more of a 'symbol' than a picture. SJ's is out-and-out a cartoon.
The idea is not for logos to be as "fierce" or "intimidating" as possible. Professional hockey players are not intimidated by a drawing.
being a nucks fan I'm obviously going to be partial but I would pick the nucks logo over the sharks any day b/c of what the logo represents compared to a cartoon shark. having the name "canuck" can't give you much choice in terms of logos (if you don't know it means canadian or french canadien). but we make a very good choice in a haida design of an orca (orca bay co.). the haida design brings back history of the pacific coast, the natives. that being said, the subtle sj is pretty slick.
I just think the Sharks logo looks cooler.
This is not a contest for your favourite team its for the best logo. sharks get the nod for myself cause the canucks logo has to many ugly colours in it and overall just looks bad. San Jose's new logo isn't the best but better than the Canucks
Both logos are great, but like already said...not fair that Sharks compete with new logo, and Canucks with old... (wait til the 29th).
Canucks logo shows a tie between heritage and modern, with a simple yet bold design. Sharks logo is a great modern design, but I dont see it in the NHL, maybe the AHL or some other affiliates.
Just my opinion.
although i like the color scheme and actual logo of vancouver more, i still voted for the sharks. i dont like the team at all, i just think that they should get my vote because their logo is actually related to their team name. what does an orca have to do with being a native canadian?
yes this might be a popularity contest and yes i am a super big nucks fan but the canucks are better either way canucks means strong superior and a killer whale represent that also orcas are native to vancouver and our logo is heida like vancouver and lastly its not a cartoonish echl logo
sharks are cartoon ya maybe they are strong but there are no sharks native there or at least special thereit a random bad coloured shark that loks like batman just died sry to say sj fans even if i was sj canucks all the way!!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH
GO CANUCKS GO
"what does an orca have to do with being a native canadian?"
Nothing, But city of vancouver or coast of vancouver has a lot to do with the ORCA,
come on people the new sharks logo is way better!! of course the new canucks logo is also sharp, sharks all the way!
You have to be absolutely kidding me!!?? The Canucks logo is one of the ugliest and most horrible logos in sports....period!! I mean seriously, a funky looking Orca breaking through ice??? It looks like something a grade school child drew during free time. I'm not saying the new Sharks logo is the best in the league or anything, but it's FAR superior to the Canucks peice of crap logo. If it was so great to begin with, why are they changing it??? Hmmmm. Anyway, we all know the real reason the Canucks are leading this pole is because all you Canadians are coming out of the wood work to support your Canadian teams....even if the logo is awful. Let the truth be told...

Hi anonymous person! Isn't that line about the Canadians "coming out of the woodwork" getting a little tired? The Maple Leafs and Flames were eliminated in the first round so I don't think you're on to anything solid there.
I just wanted to mention that since I've been seeing comments like yours an awful lot lately. Thanks for reading everybody!
The Canucks logo suits Vancouver well and it is clever, but it just isn't a very good logo. The sharks logo is better.
Now that i've seen the new canucks jerseys, i'd even pick the new york islanders fishermen's jersey of this.
When I 1st saw it, i hated it. A let down. but after what i saw the colours and logos represent, well, i guess it wont take as lond as I thought to get used to it
The Sharks logo is a weak image, the tail dissapears. It kind of looks like a rocket with a shark head. Really one of the weaker logo's in the league.
I do like the Canucks logo. It is a clear, clear logo. Very distintive at a distance. The Orca is so west caost and in the Haidi style that is instantly recognizable as being from that area. The C like A for the Avalanch stands out well.
VOTE FOR SHARKS !!!
THE LOGO IS THE BEST !!
