Brock Boeser returned to action in grand style netting a hat trick in the opening game of Da Beauty League. Yes, it's a summer tourney, but it was still good to see that he seems fully recovered from his injuries.
I went to the Canucks Development Camp practice at Rogers Arena and I was absolutely blown away by Quinn Hughes. Great skating, edges, and puck-handling. Now the question is: where will he be playing in October?
The Vancouver Canucks signed 3 free agent forwards on July 1: Jay Beagle (Capitals), Antoine Roussel (Stars), and Tim Schaller (Bruins). What do you think of these signings?
The Canucks have extended qualifying offers to RFAs Troy Stecher, Jake, Virtanen, and Sven Baertschi. What do you think each player will get in terms of contract length and money?
With the 7th overall pick, the Vancouver Canucks select defenceman Quinn Hughes. I'm so excited...I certainly didn't think Hughes would still be available at 7!
I predict who will take home the hardware in tonight's NHL Awards ceremony from Las Vegas. As well, I took a quick look at where all the nominees were drafted in light of this Friday's NHL Entry Draft.
Olli Juolevi will be having minor back surgery; expected recovery time is 6-8 weeks. I'm not sure how Canucks fans are already labeling him a bust. How about we see what he does on the ice first?
Congrats to Alex Ovechkin and the Washington Capitals for winning the Stanley Cup. And I recall how hard it was to witness in person the opposing team hoisting the Cup in Rogers Arena back in 2011.
Legendary Canucks PA announcer John Ashbridge passed away on Tuesday night at the age of 71. We pray for the repose of his soul and for his entire family.
The Canucks have signed goaltender Michael DiPietro to a three year entry-level contract. With the signing, the team has now signed 5 of their 8 draft picks from the 2017 NHL Entry draft.
Jonathan Dahlen was named MVP of Hockey Allsvenskan (the second-best pro league in Sweden) just one week after Elias Pettersson won his. Hmmm...Swedish forwards winning MVP titles...sounds familiar.
