In honour of the #Canucks hiring Jack Johnson as a scout, my favourite Jack Johnson memory, from his first career game in the NHL.

Spoke with DeBrusk about exactly this and he was very morose.

"Yeah but we still lost."
The #Canucks might want to keep DeBrusk, Pettersson, and Karlsson together.

#Canucks Kierszenstat of the Game:
With his 24th multi-point game, Filip Hronek has tied
Wayne Maki for the 74th most multi-point games in franchise history.

Unreal save by Swayman on DeBrusk. Looked like a sure goal. #Canucks

Tom Willander got kicked in the unmentionables. 😬 #Canucks

The #Goldeneyes finally get their first win on the road and it comes against the top team in the PWHL. Fantastic comeback effort.

Izzy Daniel has been all around the net tonight, and she gets rewarded with a tap-in on a great pass from Jenn Gardiner to give the #Goldeneyes the 4-3 lead.

Great work by Daniel to keep her stick free in front.

Dandy of a game between the Goldeneyes and Fleet on TSN right now. Tied 3-3 with 12 minutes remaining in the third period.

Lankinen would've had that. #Canucks

Time to bring in Kevin "Julie 'The Cat' Gaffney" Lankinen. #Canucks

Karlsson has a knack for finding space in front of the net and spinning off a check to get his stick free.

Next step for his career is learning how to play bigger minutes against tougher competition; he has the potential to play a complementary role on a top-six line. #Canucks

DeBrusk DeFlection with DeSkate in DeCrease without interfering with DeGoalie.

Have to love that goal for Jake DeBrusk. Does what he's supposed to do: gets to the backdoor, outbattles his check, deflects the puck in to bump a long slump. #Canucks

#Canucks Kierszenstat of the Game:
Sherwood has 17 goals in his first 40 games. He joins DeBrusk, Boeser, Miller, Pettersson, Horvat, Kuzmenko and Daniel Sedin as the only Vancouver skaters with at least 17 goals through their first 40 games of a season over the last decade.

Kiefer Sherwood rules. 17 goals halfway through the season. What a boss.

And he could rule for your team for the low, low price of a first-round pick and a top prospect! #Canucks

Goodness gracious, that was a dime by Brock Boeser. What a pass. Max Sasson just couldn't get the shot off quickly enough across his body. #Canucks
January 3, 2026 at 3:51 AM
Kevin Lankinen is the greatest shootout goaltender of all time. #Canucks
December 30, 2025 at 5:56 AM
Some fantastic cross-ice passing on the breakout from the #Canucks young D, Buium and Willander, leading to a vintage Pettersson release to tie the game 2-2.
December 30, 2025 at 4:23 AM
Congratulations to Marco Rossi for his first goal as a Canuck. The Loui Eriksson Special. #Canucks

On the phone with my girlfriend: Yes, I used the lean and lank horse like you suggested. Yep, went into a drifting bank, and we totally got upsot.

*looks around nervously*

What? No, I’m alone, when I said “we,” I meant me and the horse.
December 26, 2025 at 3:55 AM
Me, on the phone: Oh no, your sleigh got upsot?

*nods knowingly*

Was the horse lean and lank?
