As the team remade the jersey for their 50th anniversary season, fans and players alike were — for lack of a better word — big fans of the jersey.

Captain Bo Horvat was once quoted as saying “I think we look big and evil and scary in black,” when discussing the jerseys.

Some fans even love the black flying skate jersey so much that they can’t wait to get it back as a full Canucks regular jersey.

While most of the fans are not in that The extreme level of passion for the jersey, the bottom line remains, the flying skate is a fan favorite, and seems to be a consensus favorite among fans.

For what it’s worth, the flying skate is this writer’s favorite jersey.

But is there correct answer?

The short answer is: No, there isn’t.

But does that stop us from reaching out to fashion experts to get their say on it?

Not.

Giovanni Amenta is an image consultant, stylist, and international speaker on the psychology of fashion, so of course, we had to get his say on the never-ending debate.

First of all, here’s what he had to say about the flying skate jersey.

“It’s a classic and the logo design is my favourite. On the jersey itself, the red and yellow colors they use are like ketchup and mustard. They are also a color version used to represent deals or bargains, which is why they are used in the McDonald’s logo, for example.”

We then asked him to break the stick in the arena jersey, which is the second most popular jersey from our poll.

According to Amenta, this is the pinnacle of the Canucks shirt from an aesthetic point of view.

“This is the most flattering design based on the V-neck which gives the appearance of a longer neck; logo placement makes the chest look bigger and stronger; patches on the sleeves make the sleeves look bigger; the bottom line position will make the waist look smaller based on the focal point being above and below the waist. It’s also very modern and the colors work well together.”
