After a busy week, it’s the perfect time to have a Monday, and on Mondays, we mailbag. So why try and make a joke about my managing editor when we can keep it short and get right into the mailbag! Thoughts on Larsson vs Hamonic. What is the relative value of each? How likely is…
There are a ton of options for the Vancouver Canucks to pursue in the later rounds of the 2021 NHL Entry Draft that will take place on Saturday, July 24th. We explored seven names a few days ago and decided to dive back into the film room to find six more prospects who are expected…
In this Back To/The Future series, Chris Faber and Stephan Roget are making a collaborative effort to learn from the mistakes of the Vancouver Canucks’ recent past and offer solutions to salvage their immediate future — you know, just like Marty McFly did that one time. Each weekly Roget Reverse/Future Faber two-parter will start out with a…
The Vancouver Canucks have done a pretty good job of turning their late-round picks into value pieces and in one week at the 2021 NHL Entry Draft, they will hope to continue that trend. Prospects like Aidan McDonough, Dmitri Zlodeyev and Viktor Persson were all selected in the sixth or seventh round and show some…
Quite the title. Talk about pressure, eh? The Canucks’ top prospect is coming to Vancouver this fall and most who cover or follow the sport of hockey will say that it is too far out of the realm of possibility to believe that a KHL bottom-six player can jump into a first-line winger role for…
I’m back with another article from an interview with a Canucks prospect. It’s a shocker, I know. On this Wednesday’s episode of the Canucks Conversation podcast, we are joined by Canucks 2020 fifth-round pick and defenceman at the University of Michigan, Jacob Truscott. We talked about a variety of different topics from Cinnamon Toast Crunch,…
After an impressive sophomore season, Canucks prospect Aidan McDonough has cranked up his offseason workout plan and is looking to be atop with the NCAA scoring leaders during the 2021-22 season. The big winger joined David Quadrelli and I on this past weekend’s episode 176 of the Canucks Conversation podcast. McDonough told us how happy…
It’s Monday and you all know what that means. It’s time for another edition of the CanucksArmy Monday Mailbag! Our managing editor David Quadrelli is too busy to fulfill his duties on this week’s mailbag as Italy was partaking in the Euro Cup finals against England. He is currently celebrating the win with a bathtub…
Once the Canucks lock up Quinn Hughes, what’s next? There is room to grow for the defence core that is currently anchored by Tyler Myers (signed through the 2023-24 season) and Nate Schmidt (signed through the 2024-25 season). Jack Rathbone is a promising young defenceman who will more than likely get a run as a…

I’ve graduated from texting my hot takes to Sekeres & Price to writing them here at CanucksArmy and of course, I always want to talk about prospects. The Canucks’ prospect pool has drastically changed over the past two seasons with graduating players and others rising and falling in the eyes of us who follow them…
To say that the past year has been a whirlwind for the Vancouver Canucks’ AHL franchise would be a massive understatement. The Utica Comets went through some of the worst COVID-19 outbreaks in the AHL, they iced a split-squad with the addition of players from the St. Louis Blues organization, and now, the AHL organization…
