On Oct. 9, 1970, the Vancouver Canucks skated onto the ice for their inaugural National Hockey League game. They wore white sweaters with a striking blue-and-green crest on the chest.
The crest depicted a rounded-corner rectangle resembling a hockey rink as seen from overhead. A hockey stick set inside the rink revealed a stylized letter C for Canucks. The tricolour palette was inspired by the natural wonders of British Columbia with green for the forests, blue for the ocean and white for snowcapped mountains.
