Good grief. The Vancouver Canucks got embarrassed on national television, losing 5-0 to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Simply put, the gulf in quality between these two teams was on evident display, a completely lacklustre and lifeless display from the Canucks in this shutout loss.
The news has come out that Detroit has some interest in Canucks forward Kiefer Sherwood. It wouldn’t be the first time that Steve Yzerman has called the Canucks this season.
Vancouver Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko landed on injured reserve Sunday for the second time this season. Demko sustained a lower-body injury during Vancouver's 5-0 setback to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday.
Not the best update for one of the Vancouver Canucks‘ more valuable assets. On Sunday, General Manager Patrik Allvin announced that goaltender Thatcher Demko has been placed on injured reserve.
More discouraging news has hit the Vancouver Canucks, as they shared this afternoon that Thatcher Demko has been placed on injured reserve, his second such designation this season.
NHL head coaches have to hire good assistants. They have to set an overarching philosophy, juggle lineup configurations, and do the kind of “man management” that is impossible to track statistically.
If the season continues to go south, the Vancouver Canucks will be adding some serious talent to their prospect pool in a few months. With some luck, maybe even the likes of Ivar Stenberg or Gavin McKenna, who are set to be the first/second-overall picks in the 2026 Draft.
The Vancouver Canucks announced a trio of roster moves early Sunday morning. General Manager Patrik Allvin announced that defenceman Elias Pettersson has been assigned to AHL Abbotsford.
Well, isn’t this a familiar sight? During Saturday night’s game between the Vancouver Canucks and Toronto Maple Leafs, Canucks goaltender Thatcher Demko was noticeably absent when the second period began.
This feels like a familiar refrain. More bad news dropped for the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday night as they lost their sixth-consecutive game against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Here we go again. When speaking to the media following the team’s 5-0 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs, Vancouver Canucks head coach Adam Foote revealed that Thatcher Demko had been removed from the game after the first period due to a lower-body injury.
Starting Lineup First Period Tentative play to start for both teams, followed by a Canucks’ power play brought on by a Too Many Men bench minor from Toronto.
Brought in this past offseason as a quick-fix option for the Vancouver Canucks‘ top-six forward group, Evander Kane hasn’t really worked out in his hometown.
Every season has a player who quietly confounds the easy takes. Not bad enough to dismiss. Not good enough to celebrate. Just… there. For the Vancouver Canucks this season, that player might be Jake DeBrusk.

It appears that a former Vancouver Canucks target is being made available for trade. According to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman, the Carolina Hurricanes
Despite being bitter Pacific Division rivals, the Vancouver Canucks and Edmonton Oilers haven’t been all that shy about connecting on trades over the years.
When you hear “trade,” you usually think NHL-level moves that include big names, big contracts, and playoff implications. But sometimes, a trade in junior hockey can do just as much for a player’s growth.
The Vancouver Canucks head into Detroit to face the Red Wings on Thursday carrying a problem that’s becoming uncomfortably familiar. The team shows up — eventually — but their full game rarely does.
It certainly would make sense that Edmonton would look at an Edmonton-born winger with a history of solid production who is locked in long-term at a reasonable rate.
The winds of change are blowing for the Vancouver Canucks. With star defenseman Quinn Hughes already out the door, there’s no question that more moves are on the way as Vancouver looks to better position itself for the future.
