The Canucks have just wrapped up their first full week of preseason hockey and they’re already busy – selling papers, attending galas, starring in various iconic movies, and looking seductively at chicken nuggets.
- If there is a lanky Swedish goaltender shaped hole in your heart, Jacob Markstrom is here to fill it. Donning a paperboy cap, Markstrom sold newspapers on Raise-A-Reader day with Sven Baertschi. The whole thing was pretty cute.

- When he’s not selling papers and catching pucks, Markstrom can be found confusing Buzzfeed readers:

- The Canucks got dressed up to attend the Reveal Gala in support of the Canucks Autism Network. Vrbata wore a rare smile and Chris Tanev got a haircut! Finally!

- Somehow this nugget (for lack of a better word) escaped my notice. I really hope this is true. I hope that Jake Virtanen loves nuggets as much as Eddie Lack loves tacos. I hope he plays with Jared McCann so that the Canucks can have a McNugget line. I’m all in with this potential nugget obsession and I hope Jake is too.
Oh I definitely think he’s my fave player now @Jake_Virtanen pic.twitter.com/YeNAt7p95t
