A B.C. artist was behind the design of the Diwali-themed Canucks jerseys that were featured at Friday night’s game in Vancouver.
The Canucks organization celebrated the five-day festival of lights as the team hosted the Nashville Predators at Rogers Arena.
Canucks players took the ice wearing the custom jerseys for warm ups, which featured their names in both Hindi and Punjabi.
The woman behind the design, was B.C.-based artist, Jag Nagra.
"Just being a part of this is unreal right now,” said Nagra in an interview with CTV News Vancouver.
“The outpouring of support has been unreal, since the Canucks released this two days ago, my phone has been blowing up.”
Nagra says she had previously done work for the Canucks, and when they approached her about a Diwali celebration, it was a no-brainer.
