Towel of the Month - April 2012


The inaugural "Towel of the Month" post features a towel from the 2001-02 playoffs. That year, the Canucks took on the Detroit Red Wings in the Western Conference Quarter-Final. The Canucks would win the first two games of the series in Detroit, but the Wings would take over after that, winning the next four games in a row and taking the series 4 games to 2, three of those wins coming in Vancouver.

This playoff towel design was used on towels in 2001 as well as 2002, and possibly others. In the top right is the logo for CKNW AM 980 radio, who was the radio broadcaster for all Canucks games before Team 1040 came to be. The top right is The Province newspaper logo for sports. The lower left is Coca-Cola, the lower middle features Save-On-Foods, and the lower right features Napa Auto Parts.

You can check out this towel on our 2002 Playoff Towels page.
