Canucks making a change to the Rogers Arena ice surface

Posted on

With summer slowly creeping to a close, the Vancouver Canucks ice has been reinstalled at Rogers Arena.

Though it has only been months since the Canucks’ final playoff outing, things will get ramped up again soon with training camp set to begin on September 19. With fans’ anticipation increasing by the day, the organization chose to drop a video on X to build the excitement even further.

There is a big change in this year’s ice design, that being directly at centre ice. The organization has decided to increase the size of the Canucks logo, which will now cover the entire centre ice circle. It’s a unique design and one that plenty of fans seem to like.

Though some in the comments made it clear they would have preferred the skate logo, it seems the vast majority are happy with this latest instalment.

Fans hoping to see this new design during game action will get their first opportunity to do so on September 24, which will see the Canucks take on the Seattle Kraken in their first preseason outing of the 2024-25 campaign. Many more eyeballs will notice it weeks later, as the Canucks will play in their home opener on October 9 versus the Calgary Flames.

Anticipation for the 2024-25 season is much higher for Canucks fans than it had been in recent years. After missing the playoffs for three straight seasons, the Canucks were arguably the biggest surprise of the NHL in 2023-24, winning the Pacific Division with a 50-23-9 record. Thanks to some big free-agent additions, they are expected to be every bit as competitive this coming season.
