The Miller-Pettersson saga has mostly been told through reporters, front-office statements and vague quotes from the two players involved. This time it's coming from someone who played on the same team with both players. He Wasn't The Problem, Says Zadorov Nikita Zadorov, who played alongside Miller and Pettersson in Vancouver during the 2023-24 season before signing with Boston that summer, didn't hedge when the topic came up on the Cam & Strick Podcast this week.

Fans will always be curious about what might’ve been going on behind the scenes during one of the more tumultuous periods in the Vancouver Canucks’ recent history. On the Cam & Strick Podcast earlier this week, former Canucks defenceman Nikita Zadorov was asked about the chaos of the 2024-25 season, when a locker room rift between star…
VANCOUVER — Three training camps, three coaches. The Vancouver Canucks’ upheaval over the last two years is reflected by the staggering volume of changes among staff and players. But the greatest change of all was the dramatic veer last winter into a rebuild after a team that started the National Hockey League season with plans to return to the Stanley Cup playoffs instead plummeted to the bottom of the standings and finished last overall for the first time in franchise history. Rookie head co...
When the losses inevitably start piling up for the rebuilding Vancouver Canucks, it might not be so simple for Zeev Buium to smile through it. Yet he won’t have to worry about his paycheck or where he’ll call home for the next eight years, after the 20-year-old signed an eight-year deal with an average annual value of $9.38 million through to the end of the 2034-35 season, when he’ll be 29. Days after signing the deal, getting pen to paper before eight-year contracts become a thing of the past...

There’s something kind of interesting about Brock Boeser talking about Bo Horvat right now. On the surface, the two things don’t have much to do with each other. Boeser is…
It is the eve of NHL training camp, and player-instigated change is in the air. A couple of star players (Quinn Hughes, Brady Tkachuk) who requested to be traded away from the teams that drafted them and crowned them captain are about to begin their first full seasons in new uniforms but on old contracts. Two more stars — Red Wings captain Dylan Larkin and Jets MVP Connor Hellebuyck — have publicly requested trades despite each owing five more seasons to the clubs that re-signed them. Despite ...
As training camp nears, there's no indication the Winnipeg Jets are any closer to trading superstar goaltender Connor Hellebuyck. Meanwhile, winger Jake DeBrusk clarified his comments from last season about playing for the rebuilding Vancouver Canucks.
Zeev Buium says the Vancouver Canucks’ passionate fan base, emerging young core, and new leadership group all played significant roles in his decision to commit eight more years to the Canucks. Speaking on NHL Network after signing a long-term contract with Vancouver, Buium said the organization’s confidence in him was matched by how quickly…

Elias Pettersson is ready for a new chapter in Vancouver. The Canucks veteran forward spoke to the media on Monday as training camps unofficially opened, and it became obvious very quickly that Pettersson isn't worried about the recent trade rumors, and is ready to move on, and focus in on getting himself into the best form possible. Pettersson cites a strong relationship with Canucks' general manager Ryan Johnson as a big help so far. “No, it means a lot. I mean, RJ is someone I’ve known for ...
Filip Hronek is set to be one of the oldest players on the Vancouver Canucks this season, but the 28-year-old veteran defenseman isn’t jumping ship on the rebuilding team. While he has shown frustration in the past with the Canucks’ direction and the struggles that come with playing for a losing team, the rebuilding phase the organization is in may be a different kind of challenge. After all, it would be the team’s choice to move him, considering his current contract runs through the end of th...
The Vancouver Canucks are looking to turn the page to their next era. This offseason, they hired a new general manager in Ryan Johnson, a new head coach in Manny Malhotra, and new team presidents in franchise legends Henrik and Daniel Sedin. While the organization as a whole wants to look forward, at least one player on the team is hoping to wind the clock back a few years. Speaking to the media ahead of the 42nd annual Jake Milford Golf Invitational, Canucks center Elias Pettersson spoke abou...
