This week, the Canucks added many new faces to their roster, sent their prospects on scavenger hunts and down rapids, and welcomed back everyone’s favourite fragile Finn.
- Let’s start with a goodbye to Ryan Miller, who was a good guy and a good goalie. Here is his son Bodhi singing O Canada as a goodbye to his hometown:
- Speaking of adorable kids – new Canuck Sam Gagner’s child is too adorable:
- Gagner’s biggest fan in Columbus was heartbroken to see his favourite player sign with Vancouver.
Luckily, the Canucks and Sam want to do everything they can to cheer Judah up
- Patrick Wiercioch grew up a Canucks fan, which means this amazing photo exists:
- Alexander Burmistrov has scored some nice goals and stuff, but his best moment was this penalty he took that he totally thought was legal, until he saw the replay.

- At Prospect Camp, Elias Pettersson and Jonathan Dahlen are busy being best buddies.
- Pettersson is also very fun on Twitter:
He did a Q and A on the Canucks account, taking questions about his slight frame, pineapple pizza, and more:
- Brock Boeser is finally getting over last week’s reminder of his embarrassing first pitch.
But 2-year-old Connor refuses to let Boeser go a week without being humiliated.
- The prospects got to go whitewater rafting, which is both scary and fun. What matters most is that all of them made it back onto the boat safely after jumping into the river for a “rescue mission” game.

- The kids also took part in a photo scavenger hunt around Whistler Village. Basically they had to bother tourists a lot – it’s a fun time!

- Matt Brassard was given an excuse to do his best Salt Bae impersonation during the prospect cooking class. Great work, Matt.
- Finally, Sami Salo stopped by to say hi to the young Canucks and to teach them a thing or two about being great. Salo and Olli Juolevi got to hang out and be Finnish together. I hope Juolevi is everything Salo was (without the injuries).
