Excellent shift by the Castle Fun Park Line, with multiple puck retrievals to extend the shift in the offensive zone...
...completely undone by a lazy tripping penalty by Evander Kane. #Canucks

Quinn Hughes with 19:42 in ice time in the second half of back-to-backs.
That's not his total ice time for the entire game. That's his ice time after two periods. #Canucks

Francesco Aquilini needs to start a pretend tree-planting company to sign Kiefer Sherwood to an endorsement deal to keep his cap hit down. #Canucks

Excellent determination by Linus Karlsson to put that one in, and a nifty finish between his legs to boot. #Canucks are on the board, down 2-1.

A special #Canucks Kierszenstat for @passittobulis.bsky.social:
With his assist, Filip Hronek breaks his tie with Jan Bulis and moves into 51st all-time in points among players from Czechia.

Referees are absolutely botching this game. Quinn Hughes blatantly hooked on a potential breakaway in the dying seconds of the period, no call.
Embarrassing after they already screwed up turning what should have been a #Canucks power play into a 4-on-4.

Drew O'Connor with some quick hands in front of the net to finish off that rebound, then gets dumped to the ice by Dante Fabbro, leading to a massive dogpile behind the net.
Weirdest goal celebration ever. #Canucks

That is a dirty, dirty hit by Mathieu Olivier on Elias Pettersson (D). Right through the numbers, bounced Pettersson's head off the stanchion. Rightfully gets a five-minute major and a game misconduct. #Canucks

That was a nasty finish by Jake DeBrusk off a great pass by Drew O'Connor. Great work by Aatu Räty to gain the zone and hold up the puck too. #Canucks

I read Rick Westhead’s new book on toxic culture inside junior hockey. I urge you to read it too.

Rick Westhead's new book, We Breed Lions, has an important message for hockey
We Breed Lions is grim and essential reading. It details the reality of the worst of hockey's broken culture, while offering a path forward.

Heading into the 2025-26 season, the one thing that the #Canucks didn't have to worry about was their defence.
So, why have they been so terrible defensively?

I still have such a soft spot for the Flying V jersey. If the #Canucks ever switch to the skate as their full-time home/away jerseys, I would love to see the V return as the third jersey for special occasions.

Here's a lower angle shot where Brodeur doesn't look so tiny!
With the low def and washed out colours of TV in that era the #Canucks Flying V jersey really pops.
