Canucks: Sedins ‘excited’ to race head-to-head up Grouse Grind for charity on Sunday
How do you tell the Sedins apart? Well, next Sunday, it will be easy. Only one of them will win the Sedin vs. Sedin race for charity up the Grouse Grind.

The Zeev Buium extension was the first in what has to be a series of moral victories for the Canucks’ rebuild
The Vancouver Canucks are at the very opening stages of their self-declared rebuild. Really, the rebuild process didn’t start in earnest until December 2025, the point at which Quinn Hughes was traded to the Minnesota Wild for a heavily future-based package of assets. It’s only been about nine months since then. The 2026-27 season will…
3 Canucks who stood out in preseason opener vs. Kraken
The Vancouver Canucks’ first preseason game looked a lot like what you would expect from one. Passes were rushed. Breakouts were disjointed.

Canucks’ Schenn feels ‘fortunate’ to play mentorship role on pairing with Buium

Schenn served as the protector, handling all the defensive responsibilities…
