Shocking Reason Why Canucks Didn't Trade Kane or Blueger

The Vancouver Canucks made a handful of moves at the NHL trade deadline, but two names many expected to be dealt never moved: Evander Kane and Teddy Blueger .  While Vancouver traded players like David Kampf and Lukas Reichel for late-round picks, the veteran forwards surprisingly remained on the roster. The reason, according to general manager Patrik Allvin , was pretty simple and unexpected.  According to The Athletic's Thomas Drance , the Canucks never received a single formal t...

Today In NHL History - Sundin Shootout Winner

On February 21st in 2009, the Vancouver Canucks visited the Toronto Maple Leafs for the first time since former Leaf captain and 13 season skater Mats Sundin signed a one year deal with the Canucks on December 18, 2008 with a pro-rated payout of $5m for the remainder of the 2008-2009 season. The home team honored the Swedish legend with an emotional first period tribute, which clearly resonated

Today In NHL History - McSorley Sticks Brashear

On February 21st in 2000, Marty McSorley of the Boston Bruins swung his stick and struck Vancouver Canucks forward Donald Brashear in the head with three seconds remaining in the third period, rendering him a bloodied, unconscious and convulsing mass. Presumably intended to target the shoulder and spark a rematch to a first period scrap, the vicious miscue came dangerously close to killing

On February 17th in 2009, Vancouver Canucks defenseman Willie Mitchell skated through a pre-game warmup against the Calgary Flames with an 80 inch stick in response to coach Mike Keenan's accusation of illegal lumber.Mitchell, who plays with a league maximum 63 inch stick, invited Iron Mike to borrow his tape measure and take a shot at Rule 10.5.

Mothers of the Sun: Blackhawks vs. Canucks Preview

The Chicago Blackhawks return to the United Center on Friday night following a four-game road trip (five if you count before the Olympic break) and host the Vancouver Canucks. The Canucks sit dead last in the standings with an 18-36-7 record (good enough for a whopping 43 points). As the Canucks deal with the existential crisis of committing to a rebuild, a 1-7-2 record in their last 10 games has slid by, including losses in their last three games.
