State of the Franchise: The Vancouver Canucks. Is This The Season They Finally Break Through?



The Vancouver Canucks have been one of the more chaotic NHL teams over the past few seasons, with multiple head coaches and a new front office. Is this the year that they finally break through? Trevor Beggs of @LockedOnCanucks joins to discuss the state of the franchise. We start with where the Canucks are headed and why it’s been a frustrating time in Vancouver, and how important getting off of the Oliver Ekman-Larsson contract was. Then the big question of what Elias Pettersson’s next contract looks like. We recap the Canucks draft and why Tom Willander feels like a perfect fit for the Canucks in the future, a recap of Vancouver’s offseason, and revisit the failed Tyler Myers for Kevin Labanc trade. Finally, why Thatcher Demko is the Canucks most important player this season and if the Canucks can make it back to the playoffs.

  1. I stand by that the Canucks should act like they're having trouble signing Elias Pettersson, be vocal about the difficulties, and then trade the defenseman who shares a name with him without being clear that they're talking about the defenseman and get roughly the center's value.

  2. The Canucks and Sharks should be right where they belong this coming season. At the bottom of the Pacific.

  3. You should do a pre-draft profile on Ivan Demidov, Konsta Helenius, Michael Brandsegg, Cole Eiserman, and of course Macklin Celebrini. The only player on this list that doesn’t stand out to me is Brandsegg, mainly because he was just shy of being in the 2023 draft with a 2005 B-day. I’m really liking Demidov, Celebrini, Eiserman is interesting cause he’s still 16, and will still be 17 come draft day. Helenius also put up 11 points in 33 games in Liigia as a 16 yo.

  4. which second pair defensemen to acquire would fit Vancouver well? Hanifin? Pesce? any other? can trade extra winger(s) for?
