Sometimes the best-laid plans don’t work out and that seems to have happened for the Canucks this morning. The organization had acquired goaltender Mike McKenna from the Ottawa Senators that saw Anders Nilsson go the other way. The plan was to have McKenna back up Jacob Markstrom in the game against Ottawa, last night against…
The Canucks squeaked out a win over the Senators in OT last night as Elias Pettersson netted his first hat-trick, as I’m sure you’ve heard. It’s been a big 24 hours for the young Swede, as the rookie was also named to his first All-Star game today. EP and the Canucks travelled to Montreal today…
We return after the holidays for everyone’s favourite Canucks prospect report. The World Juniors will reach their climatic end this weekend after a Wednesday that saw some great action and upsets.

On Wednesday morning, Elias Pettersson was named to the Pacific Division roster for the 2019 NHL All-Star Game. On Wednesday evening, he responded with his first ever hattrick–including an overtime winner–and perhaps the best performance yet of his young career.

I will still include a link to…
The Rundown The Vancouver Canucks played their first game of 2019 just like a majority of the first half of their season, on the road. Their opponent tonight was the worst team in the NHL, the Ottawa Senators, who the Canucks made a trade with earlier in the afternoon. After the Canucks were shut out…

What is Tyler Madden's upside? — Stephan Roget (@StephanRoget) December 30, 2018 The Canucks have drafted a few late bloomers out of the USHL who have gone on to impress in their draft+1 seasons and I see them all as having similar upside, albeit for different reasons. When asked this question in the past about…
THE INTRO Happy New Year, Canucks fans! New year, new you… or some other crap like that. The Canucks were awful to end the calendar year against the Devils and they might as well have lost 8-0 to shake things up. Tonight, they take on the Ottawa Senators who are (checks standings) tied for the…
