Milestone watch: Boeser has a chance to become a top-5 goal scorer in Canucks history next season
The draft has come and gone, the frenzied portion of free agency is (for the most part) over, and we’ve reached that point of the off-season when National Hockey League general managers will try to get in a little downtime over what’s left of their summers. While the Vancouver Canucks may entertain trade offers on…
5 teams who could be interested in Canucks’ Jake DeBrusk post-free agency
As the first wave of free agency has come and gone, the free agent market has quickly thinned. However, several clubs are still searching for scoring help. Enter Jake DeBrusk. Based on the list of remaining UFAs – Anthony Mantha, Patrick Kane, Patrik Laine, Vladimir Tarasenko, Michael Bunting, and Eeli Tolvanen – the trade…

Milestone watch: Despite recent struggles, Pettersson poised to move into top 6 in Canucks all-time scoring next season
The draft has come and gone, the frenzied portion of free agency is (for the most part) over, and we’ve reached that point of the offseason when National Hockey League general managers will try to get in a little downtime over what’s left of their summers. While the Vancouver Canucks may entertain trade offers for…
What did the other rebuilding teams around the NHL do this offseason?
The rebuild is officially on for the Vancouver Canucks, and as a result, the moves they make will be viewed from a different perspective.

New Canucks defenceman Jamie Oleksiak says he’s ready for the rebuild
For new Vancouver Canucks defenceman Jamie Oleksiak, making the move from Seattle to Vancouver as a free agent presents both new opportunities and a familiar feel. He knows the two cities – despite being separated by an international border – have plenty in common. And the situation he’s gone through after five years with the…
Offseason roster churn leaves Canucks no choice but to develop new penalty killing forwards
The Vancouver Canucks don’t play a game until early October, so this isn’t a problem quite yet. But given the way their roster is currently constructed, the hockey club seems to be lacking capable, competent penalty killing forwards. Four of the top eight busiest penalty killing forwards on last year’s roster no longer play for…
Canucks news and rumours: Wolanin signs in Colorado, Penguins a fit for Elias Pettersson?
It’s officially the NHL offseason. The dust has settled on free agency, but we still absolutely have some interesting storylines to follow. There are the offer sheets, particularly Philadelphia’s mega-offer sheet to Anaheim Ducks centre Leo Carlsson and whether or not the Ducks will match it this week, or take the draft picks and lose…
A look at the Canucks’ unprecedented cap space heading into 2026-27
Be sure to check out PuckPedia.com for all your NHL salary cap needs! The wild and woolly 2026 NHL offseason is nowhere near done yet. But it does seem to have reached a bit of a lull as the league awaits the results and consequences of the Leo Carlsson offer sheet, and that makes for…
JPat’s Monday Mailbag: Is there a prospect that could shock at Canucks training camp?
It feels like the Vancouver Canucks have done the bulk of their heavy offseason lifting. And, as expected, it really wasn’t all that heavy. Oh, there may be a signing or two still to come and it’s always possible trade winds will blow. But as the roster building slows down for the remainder of summer,…
The arrival of offer sheets is a double-pronged warning for the Canucks to lock up their key RFAs
Just when we thought this offseason couldn’t get any zanier… The Philadelphia Flyers shocked the entire NHL, but especially the Anaheim Ducks, when they made a five-year, $90 million offer sheet to 21-year-old centre Leo Carlsson. The offer sheet, whether it stays with the Flyers or is matched by the Ducks, will give Carlsson…
Why the Canucks’ bizarre right-shot centre drought might be ending: Wagner’s Weekly
Here’s an odd thing: the Vancouver Canucks have gone two full seasons without a right-shot centre in their lineup, with one very brief exception. Last season, all of the Canucks’ centres were sinister in the classic sense: they all shot left-handed. Elias Pettersson, Filip Chytil, Marco Rossi, Teddy Blueger, Max Sasson, Aatu Räty, and…
What the Vancouver Canucks are getting in Adam Novotný
It’s not often that a player falls far enough in the 2026 NHL Draft for a selection to immediately feel like a home run. Yet when Adam Novotný was still available at 24th overall, that was the sentiment among those familiar with his game. Whether it ultimately becomes one of the steals of the…
Who were the last Canucks to wear Gallagher, Oleksiak, Schenn, and Cotter’s new jersey numbers?
The Vancouver Canucks unveiled the jersey numbers for four of their new players on Saturday afternoon. Naturally, we thought it most appropriate to ask, who were the last Canucks to wear their numbers? Brendan Gallagher – Number 7 Although technically not a free agent signing, Brendan Gallagher had to pick a new number when the…
Teddy Blueger calls final season with Canucks ‘a learning experience’ and speaks about culture
On Friday, former Vancouver Canucks centre Teddy Blueger met with Toronto media after signing a two-year contract worth $2.5 million annually with the Maple Leafs in NHL free agency earlier this week. Blueger spent the past three seasons with the Canucks after signing a one-year deal with the club ahead of the 2023-24 season, and…

Welcome back to NHL Notebook — the series here at CanucksArmy where we deliver you news and notes from around the National Hockey League — oftentimes through a Vancouver Canucks-tinted lens!

With the dust settled on NHL free agency, do the Canucks still need to move more players this offseason?
We’re still a long way off from the start of the 2026-27 season – more than three months, as of this writing – but the majority of the happenings in the 2026 offseason have already happened. The 2026 NHL Entry Draft is in the books. The first few days, and first couple hundred signings, of…
‘I lost my game a bit’: Canucks goalie prospect Aleksei Medvedev reflects on difficult season
Aleksei Medvedev is still only 18 years old, but he’s grown significantly as an athlete since being drafted by the Vancouver Canucks last year. And he’s found real positive life lessons in a season with the London Knights that pushed him to his limits. Talking to CanucksArmy on the opening day of development camp in…
Grading each of the Canucks’ free agent signings and trades
It was a busier July 1st than most expected it would be for the Vancouver Canucks. As expected, they made their depth signings, added some veteran leadership, but the real savvy move and what ultimately has everyone looking favourably on Ryan Johnson’s work on July 1st, 2026 is the Marcus Pettersson trade, and the…
Where each ex-Canuck signed in NHL free agency
With July 1st now come and gone, the first two days of frenzy of NHL free agency have wrapped up. The Vancouver Canucks elected to pass on making any big splashes with UFA’s or trades, but they made a handful of moves to position themselves in the midst of their current rebuild. Vancouver played…
Breaking down the Canucks’ prospect pool post-2026 NHL Draft
The Vancouver Canucks made nine selections last week in the 2026 NHL Draft. Seven of those picks were used to bolster their forward group, adding one defenceman and goaltender as well. Coming into this year’s draft, the biggest need in the Canucks prospect pool was the centre position. Though they used their first-round pick…
Ryan Johnson’s first moves as Canucks GM a refreshing shift in asset management
Let’s just come right out and say it. The Vancouver Canucks have not always been well-managed over the past decade or so. And if there’s been a particular weakness of the last two managerial regimes, led by the Jims Benning and Rutherford, it’s been asset management. The Canucks faithful are all too familiar with…
Caleb Malhotra reflects on wild week of NHL Draft and attending first Canucks development camp
The past eight days may have been the busiest of young Caleb Malhotra’s life. Since being selected third overall by the Vancouver Canucks in last Friday’s National Hockey League draft, Malhotra has flown cross-continent, gone whitewater rafting, spent time helping out at a food bank, heard presentations from members of the Canucks front office, and…
