31 days, 31 questions: What will the Canucks’ Hometown Remix jersey look like?
Welcome to a new series here at CanucksArmy, where over the month of August, we’ll ask a new question each day about the Vancouver Canucks. We’re calling it “31 days, 31 questions”. Today, on August 13, we’re trying to figure out what the Canucks Hometown Remix jersey will be. All 32 NHL teams will be partnering…
John Shorthouse ‘couldn’t be happier’ after signing new 4-year deal to keep calling Canucks games
Change happens all the time in pro sports. New champions, new players, new storylines to follow, and yes, even new play-by-play broadcasters. There have been plenty of new players and stories to follow surrounding the Vancouver Canucks over the last 28 years, but one thing that hasn’t changed in that time is play-by-play man John…
Tributes pour in for Vancouver sports broadcasting icon John McKeachie after passing at 82
Tributes are pouring in after news broke Wednesday that well-known Vancouver sports broadcaster John McKeachie has passed away at 82. McKeachie served as a sports anchor on television with BCTV from 1973 to 1999, and built a 40-year broadcasting career, which included stops on both Vancouver Canucks and Vancouver Whitecaps broadcasts. McKeachie also hosted CBC…
A quick start key to boosting Drew O’Connor’s trade stock in 2026-27
The cold, hard reality for Drew O’Connor is that the only thing that really, truly matters next season is boosting his trade value. The likeable, low-maintenance winger is firmly entrenched in a middle six role on the Vancouver Canucks, for now. But with the team rebuilding and needing to harvest as many assets as…
Canucks: What’s next for Adam Novotny after signing his entry-level contract?
If you’re a regular reader of CanucksArmy, or if you’re just somebody who is familiar with our semiannual ranking of the top 20 Vancouver Canucks prospects, then a lot of what you’re about to read might be information you already know. But with Adam Novotny signing a three-year entry-level contract with the Canucks on Tuesday afternoon,…

A note about the future of CanucksArmy
Hi everyone, my name is David Quadrelli, and I’m the Managing Editor of CanucksArmy and the Editor-in-Chief of The Nation Network. Our network features a number of shows across North America, along with multiple team sites in various Canadian NHL markets (and a Raptors and Blue Jays site whose staff I’m equally proud of!). The…
Health is the biggest goal and expectation for Thatcher Demko in 2026-27
The Vancouver Canucks have a Vezina-calibre goaltender on the roster. There aren’t many of these elite netminders in the league these days, and for the worst team in the NHL in 2025-26, that could prove to be quite the game-breaking element for them. Someone who could steal games and earn points in the standings simply…
Canucks sign first-round pick Adam Novotný to three-year entry-level contract
The Vancouver Canucks have announced they have agreed to terms with Adam Novotný on a three-year entry-level contract. Selected 24th overall in the first round of the 2026 draft, Novotný becomes the first of the draft picks to sign an entry-level deal with the club. Novotný was recently named the third-best prospect in the organization…
Where might the Canucks be if they had swapped Elias Pettersson for Martin Necas back in 2024?
There’s no better time than the dog days of summer to play a little game of What If… Uatu likely know by now that it’s one of our favourite things to do on this site. For today’s hypothetical alternative history, we’re not going too terribly far into the past. Only a couple of years, back…
31 days, 31 questions: Who is the Canucks’ third line centre?
Welcome to a new series here at CanucksArmy, where over the month of August, we’ll ask a new question each day about the Vancouver Canucks. We’re calling it “31 days, 31 questions”. Today, on August 11th, a look at the best fit for the third line centre role. Manny Malhotra has many decisions to…
Trade Tree: Brian Burke’s madness of moves that brought the Sedins to the Canucks
Considering CanucksArmy has been around since April of 2009, I figured there would have been at least one article on the aftermath of the Sedin trade. But couldn’t find anything. I searched “Sedin” in our back end and looked through 231 articles that took me all the way back to 2009, but this story was…
Get to know Ryan Stewart and Adam Sergerie, the Canucks’ two new hockey operations hires
The Vancouver Canucks announced two hires to their Hockey Operations department late Monday afternoon. Ryan Stewart has been hired as the team’s Director of Hockey Strategy and Player Evaluation, while Adam Sergerie has been hired as a Pro Scout. “Ryan brings a championship pedigree and a wealth of hockey knowledge to this brand new position,”…
Fully healthy, how high can Marco Rossi fly as a top 6 centre for the Canucks?
Through the first two full seasons of his NHL career, Vancouver Canucks centre Marco Rossi has shown great durability. In those seasons, Rossi appeared in all 82 games for the Minnesota Wild. In 2025-26, however, Rossi faced three separate lower-body injury setbacks. First, it was a brief one-game absence in late October with the…
Should the Canucks still have any interest in the Hurricanes’ Alexander Nikishin?
Of all the specific situations going on around the NHL right now in the midst of the dog days of summer, one of the most interesting has to be what’s going on with Alexander Nikishin and the Carolina Hurricanes. It’s probably not fair to call this a contract holdout yet, what with Training Camp still…
31 Days, 31 Questions: Is Filip Hronek ready to be Canucks captain?
Welcome to a new series here at CanucksArmy, where over the month of August, we’ll ask a new question each day about the Vancouver Canucks. We’re calling it “31 days, 31 questions.” Today, on August 10th, we will explore whether Filip Hronek is ready to become the Canucks’ next captain. The Canucks spent most of…
JPat’s Monday Mailbag: Is the Canucks training camp roster essentially set?
We have officially entered the realm of parsing snippets of video of Vancouver Canucks players taking to the ice for summer workouts. Over the past week, Elias Pettersson was seen skating in Los Angeles, while scenes of Thatcher Demko hitting the ice in Vancouver also surfaced. It won’t be long now until the entire…
Being a Canucks fan keeps getting more expensive: Wagner’s Weekly
I may be dating myself here, but when I was growing up in the Fraser Valley, getting to watch the Vancouver Canucks on TV was a relative rarity. In the mid-1990s, less than half of the Canucks’ schedule was broadcast on TV, with games split between BCTV, CHEK, CBC, and TSN. If you wanted…

Paul Cotter details free agency period and why he signed with Canucks
When July 1 comes around, everyone thinks players can sign with whomever they want and can simply wait until they find their “dream” destination. However, it’s not all that simple. In an interview with The Hockey News, new Vancouver Canucks forward Paul Cotter explained that the free agency process isn’t as glamorous as some make…
Scoring more even strength goals is a necessity for Jake DeBrusk in 2026-27
Jake DeBrusk’s 2025-26 season wasn’t ugly, but it wasn’t a Picasso either. On first glance, DeBrusk’s stat line last year doesn’t look all that out of place from any of his other eight NHL seasons. He cracked the 40-point threshold again, potted 23 goals and finished fourth in team scoring. Compared to a lot…
A sampling of the kinds of players who may be available on waivers this preseason for the Vancouver Canucks
Greetings, fellow watchers of the waiver wire. A week or so ago, we discussed the idea that the NHL’s perpetually rising cap ceiling might have a few unintended consequences, beyond the salary escalation we’re already experiencing in full force. One of those unintended consequences was a higher quality of player becoming available via waivers…

Today, on August 8th, a look into whether the Canucks should explore extending Liam Öhgren long-term after Ville Koivunen’s extension in Pittsburgh. Earlier…
