What do you think of the Luongos Olympic mask?

[Rerun]

Its a copy of his Canuck one (which I don't like .... a lumber jack?) except done in red.

[Coach]

I know its got the same logo as his old Canucks one, But I think its pretty awesome


I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit

[Blaster86]

Needs a "C" on the mask.


What?

[Regulator75]

Luuuuuuuuu is a fan of bears? Does he also live on Davie street?

[sec304]

I perosnally hate the mask, but it's because I hate it when Canadians are depicted as lumber jacks, red/black plaid, etc... especially on a world wide stage such as the Olympics

You're right, instead of a badass beast of a lumberjack it should have a guy in a suit and along the chin should say "look, we're just like everyone else"

[mykalberta]

I dont like it, but I kind of wished someone would have done a montage to the 72 series with just a white mask and red maple leaf.

I think it's fine. It's Johnny Canuck which applies to both Canada and Vancouver.

[Canada 02]

covers his ugly mug, so works for me

[jayswin]

I like it!

No, if it was to really depict Canada it would have the igloos we live in with a beaver holding a tub of maple suryp and have "aboot" scrawled across the front... idiot, I mean it should have something patriotic, something to be proud of

[subdude]

Better than this version of Johnny Canuck:

[getbak]

The lumberjack has a pretty big rack.

well im sure no American's complain about the eagles on the masks of the American goaltender's, whats the difference?

[Engine09]

Disgusting.

I'd rather see the entire mask spray painted white to get rid of any filthy Vancouver Canucks markings.

[bossy22]

He's a lumberjack and he's okay, He sleeps all night and he works all day. I cut down trees, I wear high heels, Suspendies and a bra. I wish I'd been a girlie, Just like my dear pappa.

[Vulcan]

No logger calls himself a lumberjack, the term is gay and is only used by outsiders. Canadians should know better.

[Locke]

I guess its too tough to draw a greasy guido.

Personally, I find it pretty meh. I dont like it, but I dont hate it either.

[Flacker]

Not a fan of the gold 1. A little presumptuous.

Johnny Canuck, who I would assume the mask depicts has been irreparably linked to the Vancouver Canucks. No sir, I don't like it!

[Madman]

It should have had a mint camaro on it.

[chalms04]

The lumberjack has a pretty big rack.
that's just his chest protector

[Smell My Finger]

meh

[Fry]

as long as he stops the puck he could have the rising sun on it for all I care.

[burning_acid1]

Not too bad, but the C on the nucks' mask is just cheesy.

[Puppet Guy]

the mask works better as a Team Canada mask than a 'Nucks one, I think. Red and white checks stand out better than two-tone blue. It's got character, instead of the stereotypical, bland "flags everywhere" ones which tend to come up for international games.

[pepper24]

As long as Luongo plays better against the US than the Slovaks and gets us gold I could care less!

[bzoo02]

I heard he wanted a self portrait on his mask but the IOC banned any use of Oil/Grease based paints.

[Hack&Lube]

I think the lumberjack is cheesy. The vintage one is pretty cool.

The problem is the Canucks shoulder patches (3rd logo) is based on this silly Johnny Canuck cartoon:

It's too bad this fan made one was never used as the Johnny Canuck character was actually a WWII pilot I think (and not a cliche lumberjack)

Then again, I'm all for the Canucks having stupid ugly things on their jerseys and masks so maybe that's a good thing.
