Three dramatic 1v1 roster battles to watch for in Canucks Training Camp 2022

Pearson, Podkolzin and Höglander are the only players left in the opening night top-nine. Høgland struggled to maintain his spot in Bruce Boudreau's lineup as a second-year player. Travis Dermott is going to compete with Jack Rathbone for a spot on the team. The Canucks want to keep both Rathbones and Dermot on their roster. Quinn Hughes and Oliver Ekman-Larsson are going on left-wing. The experiment involving Quinn and OEL on right-side is not a success yet. It's more likely that Hughes will stay on that side.

Drance: Why the Canucks’ no-risk dice roll on Vitali Kravtsov makes sense

The key to betting isn't so much to make great picks, although that helps. The key is to manage your risk. The Vancouver Canucks have done just that in acquiring winger Vitali Kravtsov from the New York Rangers. The deal, formally announced by both clubs on Saturday, features a price tag as close to "free" as anything you'll find on the NHL trade…

Canucks Game Day: Oliver Ekman-Larsson set to be a scratch vs. Tampa

Thursday, 4 p.m. , Amalie Arena. TV: Sportsnet. Radio: AM 650. TAMPA - It's a pretty bold statement about the strength of your division when 25 wins in 39 games has you just in third place. The Tampa Bay Lightning remain one of the league's powerhouses, but in the 2022-23 season they're trailing the odds-on favourite for the Stanley Cup and a…

2022-23 NHL Preview: Vancouver Canucks

The Vancouver Canucks enter the 2022-23 season with high expectations. For one, this will be Bruce Boudreau's first full season with the club. Vancouver was on pace for 106 points after he took over in December. The team still fell short of a postseason berth but its resurgence restored hope in what has been a dysfunctional franchise. The NHL…

3 positive takeaways from the Canucks’ 7-2 loss to the Edmonton Oilers

It's only fitting that after playing one of their worst preseason game against Seattle, the Canucks would follow it up by playing one of their best. Sure, the final score was a 7-2 drubbing by Dylan Holloway and the Oilers. But a much more shorthanded Canucks lineup tightened up in the places they needed to, keeping the score close until the final…

What happens if Nils Höglander forces his way into the top-nine? 6 scenarios coming out of Canucks Training Camp

When we polled our CanucksArmy readers a week back about which Canucks needed to have the biggest showings at Training Camp 2022, one name dominated the responses. Nils Höglander. One week into Training Camp, and on the cusp of preseason action, Höglander is still dominating, but this time he's doing it on the ice. 'He looks like the best player on…

Is regression from J.T. Miller in the cards? Will Elias Pettersson have a breakout season? How many points will Quinn Hughes score? Hockey is a difficult sport to predict.

The Canucks’ extension of J.T. Miller is a big bet on Bruce Boudreau (and Jim Benning)

When the full line-changing of the Vancouver Canucks' guard occurred back in early December 2021, several assumptions were made that seemed fair at the time. It was assumed that the sacking of the bulk of the front office and coaching staff was an indication that eight years of rebuilding had been a failure. It was assumed that the current core of…

Yes, Bruce. There it almost was. Seven-straight wins at any point in any National Hockey League season is a significant accomplishment.

The Pacific Division is probably the weakest it's been in quite some time.
