What Fraser Minten’s new deal with Bruins tells us about Liam Öhgren’s next Canucks contract
When one contract negotiation ends, there’s little time for the front office to celebrate. It’s time to work on the next deal. In the Vancouver Canucks’ case, the next man up is Liam Öhgren.

The Canucks’ three-year mulligan: A bet on keeping Quinn Hughes happy

The Canucks’ abundance of cap space should mean frequent and varied call-ups from Abbotsford in 2026-27
In less than two weeks time, the Vancouver Canucks will begin their truncated training camp and preseason for the 2026-27 campaign.
