VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - If you drive across the Lions Gate Bridge, you may notice the big concrete felines are a little less colourful these days. Their Vancouver Canucks jerseys have disappeared.

The regal cats at the south end of the bridge had been decked out in Canucks green, blue, and white for awhile. But David Zerr with Mainroad -- the company which maintains the bridge -- says they noticed the shirts were missing on Tuesday.

He tells us they have cameras nearby to help work the counter-flow lane. "Unfortunately, the cameras do not record what they observe. The workers that we have on the bridge do look at the cameras but we didn't see anything."

Zerr says the cats were first fitted with jerseys during the Olympics by an anonymous person. He's hoping whoever took the cats' Canucks gear will return it.

An odd Canucks find on the DTES

You can find lots of things for sale on the streets of the Downtown Eastside -- including Stanley Cup banners!

Ian Moore thought he was buying a big roll of vinyl fabric from a guy in Pigeon Park. It turns out, it was a massive Canucks banner that should have been hanging outside Rogers Arena!

Moore tells the Province newspaper he's returning it to the Canucks, even though he's a Toronto Maple Leafs fan.
Brutal, absolutely brutal

Wait, I don't recall, but did we get a penalty for this?
Because this was no way clipping. Hammer hit him right in the waist. It is clear as day.
He flipped the puck into the bench so it was going to be blown anyways.

Just woke up with a smile on my face knowing we only need to win 3 more games!

I still remember when I was at game 7 when Burrows scored the overtime and everybody screamed and someone yelling the Canucks have slayed the dragon.

I remember game 5 when no one knew where the puck was at the game and we won

Now I can't wait for the best memory when we win the cup and finish the season with the best memory yet!


Go Canucks Go!

Anyone else surprised WPG has only sold 1900 season tickets? I thought there would be a line up out the door. Thought half of them would be sold by now.

I'm surprised for sure. I mean I was thinking the 5 year minimum + one of the highest average per ticket would scare some people off but I didn't expect only 1900 that's for sure.

I think the 1,900 was only for people who had moose season tickets and therefore they sold 1,900 in the presale which is 13% of the available tickets and IMO pretty good for 4 hours

5 years is not a very long time and besides if there are expected sellouts why not invest now....I am sure a lot of people are kicking themselves for not buying season tickets when they had a chance

I am pretty sure that you are right on this


on a side note they said that they will not release the team name until they sell 13,000 season tickets so im pretty sure they will get this total or atleast close to it

For now, only Manitoba Moose season ticket holders have access to season tickets.

Some Jets fans have reportedly offered large sum of cash to access Winnipeg season tickets from Moose season ticket holders, if they choose not to exercise that option.

Nice! I thought they weren't on sale till tomorrow afternoon..

How much was it with taxes? Did you get them from ticket master? were they random seats or did you get to pick lower/upperbowl?

Thanks!

Use Presale Password "BELIEVE" if you want to buy now. I just took a peak and it's assigned seating. Upperbowl is available as well.
