Cootes scores first career AHL goal and Mueller scores a pair in Abbotsford Canucks’ opening weekend
It wasn’t the start to the season the Abbotsford Canucks had hoped for as Vancouver’s AHL affiliate kicked off its season on the road with back-to-back losses to the Calgary Wranglers. Both games ended in 4-2 losses, meaning rookie Head Coach Ryan Papaioannou will have to wait a bit longer for his first AHL…

‘Trying to play a hard game’: Canucks’ Pettersson explains early physical surgence
Over the past two seasons, all the talk surrounding Vancouver Canucks forward Elias Pettersson has been whether or not he can return to the offensive dynamo he once was. And with five points through the first three games of the 2026-27 season, it’s a pretty nice start for the 27-year-old. Along with those points,…

The Stanchies: Canucks rip four third period goals, Meriläinen shuts down Flames in 4-1 win
Last season, the Vancouver Canucks spent months looking for any sort of bright side to a horrible campaign. This year, we’re only three games in, but everything seems so much sunnier. Maybe that’s why, even though Vancouver fell behind 1-0 and only had six shots through the first 30 minutes, you felt they had some…

Why Marco Rossi on the wing could be the right long-term fit for the rebuilding Canucks
The wildly swinging nature of the Vancouver Canucks’ first two games of the 2026-27 season almost necessitated that their lines be thrown in a blender, and that continued into Friday practice ahead of a weekend back-to-back. Head coach Manny Malhotra tried out some new combinations, and one of the more interesting was a move of Marco Rossi from the…
Buium’s extension with Canucks looks even better after Luneau’s extension with Ducks
There are aggressive bets on young players, and then there is handing $43.2 million to a defenceman who has played 14 NHL games. The Anaheim Ducks crossed that line Thursday, signing 22-year-old Tristan Luneau to a six-year extension carrying a $7.2 million average annual value beginning in 2027-28. According to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, it…
“An honour and a privilege”: Buium, Karlsson and O’Connor react to being named to the Canucks leadership group
Ahead of the 2026-27 season, the Vancouver Canucks announced their six-player leadership group. Three of those six were assistant captains last season: Brock Boeser, Filip Hronek, and Elias Pettersson. But there were also three brand-new players sporting an ‘A’ on their sweater this season – none of them being veteran leaders the club added…

The club also announced their opening night roster. Lind, who turns 28 this month, was the Canucks’ 33rd overall selection at…
The Statsies: Elias Pettersson stands out in Canucks’ loss to Oilers
That was a fun game to watch. Canucks need to chill before they force the Oilers to trade for Hellebuyck. — Taj (@taj1944) October 2, 2026 The Vancouver Canucks dropped a 9-7 loss to the Edmonton Oilers, losing in a goal-bonanza fashion. Honestly, there’s not much to be tremendously unhappy about, except that the team…
The Stanchies: Canucks make it entertaining in 9-7 loss to Oilers
Despite losing 9-7 in the home opener Thursday night, it felt like Vancouver emerged from this game in a far happier place than the Edmonton Oilers. Don’t get me wrong, there isn’t a single NHL coach on this planet who is going to enjoy their team giving up 14 goals over the first two games…

The Canucks are a rebuilding team without a rookie on the roster…is this a problem?
The Vancouver Canucks are indisputably in a rebuild right now. They’ve announced the rebuild, they’ve committed to the rebuild, and they’re doing the rebuild. And with said rebuild seeming to have officially begun with the January 2026 trade of Quinn Hughes to the Minnesota Wild, that makes this current 2026-27 campaign the first full season…
Brock Boeser has a chance to become something even bigger than a Canucks star
One question from the Vancouver Canucks’ season-opening press conference in Penticton deserves more attention than it received. Ryan Johnson, Manny Malhotra and the Sedin twins were asked about what role Brock Boeser can play as the team moves through its rebuild. It is a reasonable question, especially considering how quickly Boeser has faded into…
WDYTT: Make a random prediction about the 2026-27 Vancouver Canucks season
Welcome back to WDYTT, the only hockey column on the internet where the content is random, but the acronyms stay consistent. Speaking of random, we’re looking for a little more of that today. One of the problems with a weekly call-and-response column is that asking any question inherently limits the answers. That’s become especially…
The Tape: Breaking down Max Sasson’s strong game line-matched against Connor McDavid
There was no shortage of heroes in the Vancouver Canucks’ season-opening 6-5 win over the Edmonton Oilers. Paul Cotter scored twice, including the overtime winner.

How much can the Canucks afford to win in the 2026-27 season?
The Vancouver Canucks were both the last-place team and the lowest-scoring team in the NHL for the 2025-26 season, and by rather large margins. So, of course, they opened up the 2026-27 season by scoring six goals and beating the Edmonton Oilers. Even those who entered this year with hopes of the Canucks losing every…
‘Is that Rocket Richard?’: Cotter makes good on his opportunities in Canucks debut
“Is that Rocket Richard?” That was the question I heard Drew O’Connor ask (a couple of times) during a brief chat I had with Paul Cotter in the visitors’ locker room on Tuesday night. Cotter, who has a Stanley Cup ring as a member of the Vegas Golden Knights, won’t soon forget his Vancouver Canucks…
