Is it any wonder Ryan Kesler just signed a long-term deal with the Vancouver Canucks worth 30 Million dollars over 6 years? Ok well, yes it is a lot of money for this Selke runner up, but what Canuck fan wants to see him play for another team?

The Hockey Code

When I tell people I live and breathe hockey, one of the most common answers I get is: "You like hockey? Really!? It's so barbaric! They fight all the time!"

In a way, it is true. Grown men on skates in post-whistle scrums hacking, pushing, shoving, punching, trash-talking, fighting. What most people don't...

Prey No Longer

The Vancouver Canucks accomplished something rarely seen at GM Place Thursday night: A win over the San Jose Sharks.

On a night made for anyone with 'Ryan' in their name, the Canuck power play came out swinging, and was the difference in a 3-2 win. Alexander Edler and Ryan Kesler each had a goal and an assist on the power play. Ryan...

A scan of www.hockeydatabase.com indicates that 40 former Victoria Salmon Kings are still active players, with 27 in North American leagues and 13 overseas in Europe. Two defensemen, Shaun Heshka (San Antonio Rampage) and Travis Ramsey (Manitoba Moose) are patrolling AHL bluelines. Twelve exSalmon Kings are with other ECHL clubs. Olivier Labelle...

The Dangers of being a Backup Goaltender

We all of heard our fair share of injuries, incidents and stories with backup goaltenders while sitting on the bench. Whether it is Senator's goaltender Pascal LeClaire being hit in the face with the puck and missing a month with a broken jaw. It could also be where in some NHL arenas, the backup goalie is completely excluded from his team due...

Superstar Sedins

Who would have thought?

The humble, identical twins from Ornskoldsvik, Sweden have become superstars in the the NHL and it's about time.

They won't be replacing Ovechkin and Crosby as the faces of the NHL anytime soon, but their names should be up there with the greats in this league. They have been dominating the league with linemates...

A look at Henrik’s milestone filled season

Icon 1 Comments
This weekend was a big weekend for the Canucks, their fans, the record books and King Henrik himself. Henrik's play has been phenomenal this season. Even when "slumping" on the road he managed to pull things together on the tail end of the trip and end up at a point per game pace. His assault on the record books this year has been...

The Forgotten Swede

As Henrik Sedin approaches the single season record for most points in a season by a Vancouver Canucks center, I think it's time we took a look back—way back—at the player who currently holds that record.

If you don't know who it is off the top of your head, I can assure you you're not alone, but why not try taking a guess?

There was a bit of excitement over the weekend as I over a story that I also tweeted about regarding Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun's article suggesting that Canucks first round draft pick Jordan Schroeder may be leaving his NCAA team, the Minnesota Golden Gophers, and joining the Moose.

This would follow rumors from ...

Could the Canucks Part With Raymond?

Gillis needs to do the right thing. The right thing is to analyze Raymond's performance for the rest of the season and make the decision to trade Raymond at off season.

People need to understand that Raymond could demand a lot of money as a RFA and the Canucks cant simply throw money at another player when the Twins, Luongo, Kesler should be...

Could we see Grabner dealt on Wednesday?

Icon 7 Comments
Vancouver Canucks fans marveled Michael Grabner's performance in the short nine game stint he had with the team.

Grabner picked up two goals and three assists and showed us that he had NHL speed, shot, and defensive conscience to play amongst the elite. But like for the most of his hockey career, consistency remains a problem.

He had a...
