The Canucks and all of the NHL are on a three-week break thanks to NHL players finally returning to Olympic competition. With this pause to the NHL season, Canucks fans are also now in for a world of difference as they sit down to take in best on best Olympic hockey. The Olympics should be a nice and welcome reprieve for invested Canucks fans, exhausted by cheering for their team … Read More
List of Active Vancouver Canucks Podcasts for the 2025/26 NHL Season
This season marks the third iteration of this article. Three seasons ago, I set out to create an article/ list that would feature a guide to all currently active Canucks podcasts that are out there. This was not a revolutionary idea; a quick Google search may make it seem like many such lists exist already. But it’s the timeliness and the lack of updating of many lists that frustrated me … Read More
We Snuck Branding for Our Old Podcast Into Rogers Arena. It Stayed for Nearly a Decade… Now It’s Gone.
I’ll be the first to admit that the title to this article is wordy. But this is a unique kind of bizarre and somewhat amusing story that is hard to condense into a title that makes any kind of sense. Please bear with me. After three attempts, Trent (co-creator, co-writer on this very website) finally picked up his phone midway through the Canucks vs. Bruins game on January 3, 2026. … Read More
Perpetually Grieving the Loss of Quinn Hughes the Canuck
Last Christmas, my brother-in-law gifted a Canucks Jersey to his girlfriend; it was, of course, a Quinn Hughes jersey. As the box was opened, I watched as someone who I had never seen excited about hockey become visibly excited to receive a hockey jersey. For many reasons, Quinn so easily opened the door for those kinds of moments, moments that transcended the normal reach of the Canucks. Of the many … Read More
Complaining… Literally Just Complaining About the Canucks
I’m a new Dad as of the beginning of October, so I am still getting used to the new schedule that a baby imposes on ones life. While there are many things that I can now no longer do on the regular, I can, in theory, still do one thing that I enjoy, which is write about the Canucks… in theory. However, as I mentioned, new Dad, getting used to … Read More
Elias Pettersson, He’s Back!… Almost
The anticipation around how Elias Pettersson would perform this season couldn’t have been higher headed into October. After such a disappointing 2024-25 campaign where EP40’s production feel so far behind his prior seasons, this year would be do or die for Pettersson and the Canucks. The thought of another year of a Pettersson regression with six more years still to go on his contract was bone chilling. Thankfully so far … Read More
Returning from a Truly Unplugged Canuck-less Summer
The eve of a new hockey season is always an exciting time, regardless of last year’s standing after 82 games. All 32 teams start the season with identical records. It’s hard not to have some sense of optimism going into a new season just for that reason alone, and it’s that optimism that often draws people back in even after a particularly challenging prior seasons. Cards on the table, full … Read More
Canucks After Free Agency, Why Do I Feel Hopeful?
After the dust settled on NHL Free Agency, the Canucks retained not only Brock Boeser, but also extended Thatcher Demko and Conor Garland. They may have lost Noah Juulsen, Pius Suter and, most recently, Dakota Joshua, but they have retained key pieces that give this team its identity for the better. With big components of this Canucks team staying the same, and the fact that this season ended so poorly … Read More
Home Stretch: Outlining Vancouver’s Performance After 60 Games Played
One minute you’re studying line deployment for the Young Stars Weekend in Penticton and then you look up from your phone and it’s March. On the verge of a wild card spot and a still too be determined post season birth, the Canucks are now 75% through this NHL season. Throughout the year I made a point of checking this teams pulse every 20 games to get a sense of … Read More
It’s a Bummer to Be a Canucks Fan Right Now
I don’t believe there is a sane Canucks fan alive that would say that their excitement for this team is higher than it was this time last year, or even at the start of the season. Back in October, the Canucks were entering what looked to be their second consecutive season of being serious contenders, after coming off of what was their first meaningful playoff effort since the 2012-13 season. … Read More
