A canuck means a canadian. The Vancouver Canucks translated is the vancouver canadians. The current logo an orca comes from orca bay which is a large sports and entertainment company. They own GM place (where the canucks play)
The canucks are the greatest team ever in the NHL and are gonna win the cup this year and ever year to come.

A Canuck is a Canadian, like a Yankee is an American.

Their jersey has an Orca (killer whale) in the shape of the letter 'C', done in the artistic style of the Native tribes of the Pacific Northwest.

What does the Canucks logo represent?
The Canuck logo is an Orca whale in the shape of a ‘C’. The Orca whale (also known as a Killer Whale) represents the abundance of this mammal in our region as well as the unique geographic, art and culture of the Pacific North West.

Canuck is a slang term for "Canadian" in Canadian English and in American English. As for the uniform - if you are referring to their 3rd - It was the first uniform worn by the Canucks. It's a rounded rectangle with a simple hockey stick protruding within as the logo to form a "C" and is surrounded by the team colors of royal blue, green and white.

A Canuck the Canadian equivalent of a redneck. I think the thing on their jerseys is some Inuit-like totem type of critter. It kind of creeps me out a little. *sighs* I wish Taylor Pyatt had stayed in Buffalo instead of getting shipped out there. And yes, the Leafs do indeed suck.

A term for Canadians like "Yankee" to Americans.

Comes from a WWI comic book called "Johnny Canuck" a Canadian soldier in the war.

Also the name of Vancouver's NHL team

A Canuck is a slang name for a Canadian. Like cheese head is a Wisconsin resident and a mud duck is from Minnesota.

It's slang for Canadian. (Not to be confused with Can Suck which is a term that applies to the Leafs and their fans only.)

Canuck is not considered offensive. As most Canadians happily refer to themselves as Canucks.

Much the same way the Americans feel about the term Yankee.

Canuck is a Canadian term. It also means a whale I believe in Native terms.
