Longtime Bulies have no doubt noticed our affinity for adorable Canucks’ fan art, highlighted by our continuing collaboration with cute-Canuck connoisseur Chloe Ezra on our Pass it to Comics series. So when we find a new source of Canuck-related adorableness, we are thoroughly thrilled.
Tumblr user eeames has combined squares, Canucks, and cuteness in a magical way.
These minimalist depictions of the Canucks get so much right, but there are some clear highlights. Notice, Ryan Kesler is the only one with a nose, which is entirely appropriate. She nails David Booth’s constantly present backwards hat and crooked grin. Sleepy-eyed Edler is pretty much perfect. And Mason Raymond’s starry-eyes and rosy cheeks make me laugh every time.
My only complaint is that there aren’t more of these beauties. I would love to have an entire team set of square-faced Canucks. There’s a lot of potential for using these for illustrations of line combinations and defence pairings.

March 1, 2012Oh my goodness. Something about the Hamhuis one makes it look exactly like him. The 5 o’clock shadow? I LOVE these. People are so wickedly creative!
Nee
March 1, 2012I’m guessing you mean Higgins? Hamhuis is #2. (giggles like a 5 year old)
Ginger
March 4, 2012Oh my. Of course I do. That’s just embarrassing. HIGGINS!

March 1, 2012I like that Daniels eyes are spaced closer together than Henriks. That makes me laugh every time I look.

March 2, 2012He might just be. In any case he looks awfully worried about something, body cast or no.

March 2, 2012Wow… even the Canucks without super-obvious features like Burrows and Higgins are somehow nailed perfectly. The only one that I wouldn’t have a guess at is Lapierre, to be honest (hair should probably be darker). Everyone else really stands out in spite of the huge differences you would expect between a square-faced sprite and a real-life face — it’s remarkable! Incredible job!
