The Vancouver Canucks are a professional ice hockeyteam based in Vancouver,British Columbia, Canada. They are members of the Northwest Division of theWestern Conference of the National Hockey League (NHL). The Canucks play their home games at Rogers Arena, formerly known as General Motors Place, which has a capacity of 18,860. Mike Gillis is the team's president and general manager, Alain Vigneault is the coach and they are captained by centre Henrik Sedin.The Canucks joined the league in 1970 as an expansion team along with the Buffalo Sabres. In its NHL history, the team has advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals three times, losing to the New York Islanders in 1982, the New York Rangers in 1994 and the Boston Bruinsin 2011. They won the Campbell Bowlas Western Conference playoff champions in 2011 and have won the Presidents' Trophy in back-to-back seasons as the team with the league's best regular season record in the 2010-11and 2011-2012seasons. They won three division titles as a member of the Smythe Division from 1974 to 1993, and six titles as a member of the Northwest Division from 2003 to 2012.The Canucks have retired three players' jerseys in their history - Stan Smyl (12),Trevor Linden(16), and Markus Naslund (19), all of whom served as team captains and held the all-time team point-scoring lead at the end of their respective careers.Contents[hide] 1 Hockey background in Vancouver2 Team history2.1 1967-1970: NHL application2.2 1970-82: Early years2.3 1982 Stanley Cup run2.4 1982-94: Decline and resurgence2.5 1994 Stanley Cup run2.6 1994-2001: 25th Anniversary, new arena, and a new beginning2.7 2001-05: "West Coast Express" years2.8 2005-10: Post-lockout2.9 2010-2011: 40th anniversary season2.9.1 2011 Stanley Cup run2.10 2011-12: Consecutive Presidents' Trophies2.11 2012-13: Lockout and shortened season3 Team information3.1 Ownership3.2 Logos and jerseys3.3 Media3.4 Mascot3.5 Home arenas4 Minor league affiliates4.1 Top affiliates4.2 Secondary affiliates5 Season-by-season record6 Players6.1 Current roster6.2 Retired numbers6.2.1 Numbers taken out of circulation6.3 Hall of Famers6.4 Broadcasters6.5 Ring of Honour inductees6.6 Team captains6.7 Draft picks6.8 Franchise scoring leaders7 Head coaches8 Awards and trophies8.1 NHL8.2 All-Star8.3 Franchise9 Franchise individual records10 Notes11 References12 Further reading13 External links[edit]Hockey background in VancouverVancouver became home to a professional ice hockey team for the first time in 1911 when Patrick brothers Frank and Lesterestablished the Vancouver Millionaires, one of three teams in the new Pacific Coast Hockey Association.[3]To accommodate the Millionaires, the Patrick brothers directed the building of the Denman Arena, which was known at the time as the world's largest artificial ice rink (it burned down in 1936).[4]The Millionaires played for the Stanley Cup five times, winning over the Ottawa Senators in 1915 on home ice.[5]It marked the first time the Stanley Cup was won to a west coast team in the trophy's history.[5]After the Millionaires disbanded following the 1925-26 season, Vancouver was home to only minor league teams for many years. Most notably, the present-day Canucks' minor league predecessor (also known as the Vancouver Canucks), played from 1945 to 1970 in thePacific Coast Hockey League and Western Hockey League.[edit]Team history[edit]1967-1970: NHL applicationWith the intention of attracting an NHL franchise, Vancouver began the construction of a new modern arena, the Pacific Coliseum, in 1967.[6]The WHL's Canucks were playing in a small indoor arena at the time, the Vancouver Forum, situated on the same Pacific National Exhibition grounds as the Coliseum. Meanwhile, a Vancouver group led by WHL Canucks owner and former Vancouver mayorFred Humemade a bid to be one of the six teams due to join the league in 1967, but the NHL rejected their application.[7]Bid leaderCyril McLeancalled the denial a "cooked-up deal", referring to several biases that factored against them. Speculation long abounded afterwards that the bid was hindered by Toronto Maple Leafs president Stafford Smythe; after a failed Vancouver-based business deal, he was quoted as saying that the city would not get a NHL franchise in his lifetime. Additionally, along with the Montreal Canadiens, Smythe purportedly did not wish to split Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) hockey revenues three ways rather than two.[8]There were reports at the time, however, that the group had made a very weak proposal in expectation that Vancouver was a lock for one of the new franchises.[citation needed]Less than a year later, the Oakland Sealswere in financial difficulty and having trouble drawing fans. An apparent deal was in place to move the team to Vancouver, but the NHL did not want to see one of their franchises from the expansion of 1967 move so quickly and killed the deal. In exchange for avoiding a lawsuit, the NHL promised Vancouver would get a team in the next expansion. Another group, headed by Minnesota entrepreneur Tom Scallen,[citation needed] made a new presentation, and was awarded an expansion franchise for the price of $6 million dollars (three times the cost in 1967).[9]The new ownership group purchased the WHL Canucks, and joined the league along with the Buffalo Sabres for the 1970-71 season.[edit]1970-82: Early yearsTo fill the Canucks' roster for their inaugural season, the league held an Expansion Draft in the preceding summer. A draft lottery was held on June 9, 1970, determining who between the Canucks and Sabres would get the first selection in the Expansion Draft, as well as the 1970 NHL Amateur Draft; the Sabres won both spins. With his first selection in the Expansion Draft, Canucks general manager Bud Poilechose defenceman Gary Doak.[10]Among the other players chosen by Vancouver were centre Orland Kurtenbach, who was named the Canucks' first captain,[11]as well as defenceman Pat Quinn, who later became the team's general manager and coach in the 1990s. Two days later, on June 11, 1970, the Canucks made defenceman Dale Tallontheir first-ever Amateur Draft selection. Tallon played three seasons with the club before being traded away to the Chicago Black Hawks. By comparison, the Sabres chose centerGilbert Perrault with the first overall selection they won from the lottery; Perrault went on to become a nine-time All-Star and member of the Hockey Hall of Fame.[12]With the Canucks' roster set, the team played its inaugural game against the Los Angeles Kings on October 9, 1970. They lost the contest 3-1; defenceman Barry Wilkinsscored the Canucks' lone goal in the game and first in franchise history, a backhander against goaltender Denis DeJordy.[13]Two days later, the squad recorded the first win in franchise history, a 5-3 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs.[14]The Canucks struggled in their early years, failing to make the playoffs in their first four seasons.[15]Placed in the competitive East Division, Poile assembled a core of players during this period led by Kurtenbach that included defencemen Tallon and Jocelyn Guevremont, as well as wingers Andre Boudrias and Dennis Ververgaert. Boudrias emerged as the team's leading point-scorer in four of their first five seasons.[16]Prior to the 1974-75 season, Scallen and his ownership group from Minnesota sold the team to local media mogul Frank Griffiths for $9 million.[17]Also in the summer of 1974, the Canucks were re-aligned within the league and placed in the new Smythe Division. They responded with their first winning record (38 wins, 32 losses and 10 ties), finishing first in the division with 86 points.[16]Making their debut in the Stanley Cup playoffs, the Canucks lost the opening series of the 1975 post-season in five games to the Montreal Canadiens. Head coach and general manager Phil Maloney (the third GM in team history after Poile and Hal Laycoe) recalled the importance of a successful season for the Canucks in that year specifically, as the rival league World Hockey Association had established another major professional team in the city - the Vancouver Blazers. Competing for the same hockey market, the Canucks emerged over the Blazers as the latter relocated to Calgary, Alberta, the following season.[18]The Canucks posted a second consecutive winning record and made the playoffs in 1975-76, but lost to the New York Islanders in a two-game preliminary series.[15]The Canucks missed the playoffs in the two seasons thereafter.[15]Meanwhile, Kurtenbach had since retired and assumed a coaching position with Vancouver. His departure as a player marked the beginning of a seven-year period in which the Canucks had four different captains - Boudrias, Chris Oddleifson, Don Lever and Kevin McCarthy. Following their post-season loss to the Islanders in 1976, Vancouver did not have another winning season for sixteen years, though they made the playoffs nine times in that span.[16]Following the 1976-77 season, Maloney was replaced as general manager by Jake Milford, who acquired such players as Stan Smyl, Thomas Gradinand Richard Brodeur - a core that would lead the team throughout the 1980s.[19][edit]1982 Stanley Cup runFurther information: 1981-82 Vancouver Canucks season and 1982 Stanley Cup FinalsThe Canucks made their first significant playoff impact in the post-season of 1982. In their previous five playoff appearances, the team had failed to win a single series. Though the Canucks finished three games under a .500 win percentage in the 1981-82 regular season, they began gaining momentum by finishing the campaign on a nine-game unbeaten streak.[20]Meanwhile, Smyl emerged as the club's leader, replacing McCarthy as captain after the latter was sidelined with an injury late in the season (he would retain that position for a team-record eight years).[21][22]Continuing their success in the playoffs, the Canucks made the Stanley Cup Finals with a combined 11-2 record in series against the Calgary Flames, Los Angeles Kings, and Chicago Black Hawks.[15]Despite having a losing regular season record, Vancouver had home ice advantage in the first series, having finished second in the Smythe Division to the Edmonton Oilers. The Canucks also had home ice advantage during the second round series against the Kings, who upset the Oilers in the first round.During the Conference Finals against the Black Hawks, Vancouver interim coach Roger Neilson, frustrated with what he felt was the poor officiating in the game, placed a white towel on the end of a hockey stick and held it up in a gesture mocking surrender (waving thewhite flag). The players on the Canucks' bench followed suit. At the next game, the team's fans cheered their team on by waving white towels above their heads. The habit stuck, becoming an original Canuck fan tradition now seen across the league and in other sports, known as Towel Power. The Canucks proceeded to win the series, making it to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time in their history.[23]Further information: Towel PowerEntering the Finals against the New York Islanders, the Canucks were the first team from Western Canada to play for the Stanley Cup in 56 years, when the Victoria Cougars reached the 1926 Stanley Cup Finals. It also marked the first ever coast-to-coast Stanley Cup Finals.[24]Competing against the Islanders - the Stanley Cup champions of the previous two years who had finished with 41 points more than Vancouver in the regular season standings - Vancouver took the first game to overtime. In the final minute of the extra period, Canucks defenceman and fan favourite Harold Snepsts gave the puck away with an errant pass from behind his net, leading to a Mike Bossygoal.[25]The Canucks were unable to complete their Cinderellarun and were swept, losing their next three games by 6-4, 3-0 and 3-1 scores. The 1982 playoffs proved to be the last year in which Vancouver won a playoff series until 1992.[15][edit]1982-94: Decline and resurgenceAfter their improbable Stanley Cup run, the Canucks slipped back into mediocrity for the rest of the 1980s, making the playoffs only four times for the rest of the decade.[15]Notable players that joined the Canucks' core following the 1982 playoffs included offensively-skilled forwards Patrik Sundstrom and Tony Tanti. Beginning in 1983-84, the Canucks' scoring title was held by either Sundstrom or Tanti for four of the next five seasons. For most of the second half of the 1980s, the Canucks competed with the Los Angeles Kings for the final playoff spot in the Smythe Division. The years in which they qualified, the team was eliminated by the Edmonton Oilers (in 1985-86) or the Calgary Flames (in 1982-83, 1983-84 and Flames championship season of 1989, which was decided in Game 7), both division rivals.[15]Following Milford's tenure as general manager from 1977 to 1982, the position was held by Harry Neale for three years, then Jack Gordonfor two. The latter was responsible for trading away power forwardCam Neely to the Boston Bruins in 1986.[26]In addition to Neely, the Canucks gave up their 1987 first round draft pick, with which the Bruins chose Glen Wesley, and in return acquired centreBarry Pederson. While Pederson collected back-to-back 70-point seasons with the Canucks in his first two seasons after the trade, he was traded away to the Pittsburgh Penguins in 1989 as his performance quickly declined.[27]Neely went on to have a Hall of Fame career with the Bruins, recording three 50-goal seasons,[28]and Wesley had a solid 20 year career.[29]After the installation of former Canucks defenceman Pat Quinn as general manager in the summer of 1987,[30]the team underwent an immediate rebuilding process, trading away core veterans for younger prospects and players. Among the more key transactions was a deal with the New Jersey Devils, in which Sundstrom was traded away in exchange for winger Greg Adamsand goaltender Kirk McLean. In addition to Quinn's trades, the team improved through the draft route with two selections, in particular. With the second overall selection in the 1988 NHL Entry Draft, the Canucks chose winger Trevor Linden from the Western Hockey League. The following year, the team made a controversial selection by choosing Russian winger Pavel Bure113th overall. Bure was believed by most teams to be ineligible for selection that year. Consequently, his draft by the Canucks took a year to be verified by the league as team management went about procuring documents to prove his eligibility.[31]As the decade turned, a shift in the Canucks' leadership occurred as Stan Smyl resigned his captaincy prior to the 1990-91 seasondue to a reduced on-ice role with the team. In his place, the Canucks implemented a rotating captaincy of Linden, Dan Quinn and Doug Lidster; of the three Linden retained the captaincy thereafter, becoming the youngest permanent captain in team history at 21 years old. At the end of the season, Smyl retired as the team's all-time leader in games played, goals, assists and points.[32]Led by Linden and in large part to Quinn's dealings, the Canucks rose to prominence in the early 1990s. This increased success came roughly around the time the Oilers and Flames began to sink in the standings. As a result, Vancouver won their first division title in 17 years with 42 wins, 26 losses and 12 ties during the 1991-92 season. During the campaign, the Canucks honoured Smyl, who had remained the team as an assistant coach, by making him the first player in team history to have his jersey (number 12) retired.[32]In the 1992 playoffs, the Canucks won their first series since 1982 before being eliminated by the Oilers in the second round.[15]Quinn and Bure became the first Canucks recipients of major NHL awards in the off-season, being awarded the Jack Adams Award as the best coach (Quinn assumed a dual coaching and general managerial role starting that year) and the top rookie in the league, respectively.[33]The following year, the Canucks repeated as regular season division champions, while Bure emerged as arguably the team's first superstar with his first of back-to-back 60-goal seasons, totals which remain the highest recorded in Canucks history.[34][edit]1994 Stanley Cup runFurther information: 1993-94 Vancouver Canucks season and 1994 Stanley Cup FinalsIn 1994, the Canucks made their second trip to the Stanley Cup Finals, entering the playoffs as the seventh seed in the renamedWestern Conference. Despite underachieving in the regular season (their points total decreased by 16 from the previous year),[16]the Canucks played well in the playoffs and embarked on another unexpected run.Opening the playoffs with a close first-round series against the Calgary Flames, Vancouver rallied from a three-games-to-one deficit to win the series in seven contests. Games 5 through 7 were all won in overtime with goals from Geoff Courtnall, Trevor Linden and Pavel Bure.[35]The deciding seventh game featured two of the most recognizable and celebrated plays in Canucks history. With the game tied 3-3 in the first overtime, goaltender Kirk McLean made what became known thereafter as "The Save", sliding across the crease feet-first and stacking his pads on the goal line to stop Robert Reichel on a one-timer pass from Theoren Fleury. The following period, Pavel Bure received a breakaway pass from defenceman Jeff Brownbefore deking Calgary goaltender Mike Vernonto score and win the series. Fifteen years later, Bure's goal and McLean's save were ranked first and second in a Vancouver Sun article listing the "40 most memorable moments in team history."[36]Following their victory over the Flames, the Canucks then went on to defeat both the Dallas Stars and Toronto Maple Leafs (both in five games) en route to the franchise's second Stanley Cup Finals appearance.[15]Forward Greg Adams sent the Canucks into the Finals with a double-overtime goal against Maple Leafs goaltender Felix Potvinin Game 5.[36]Staging the second coast-to-coast Finals in league history, the Canucks were matched against the Presidents' Trophy-winning New York Rangers. Vancouver achieved victory in Game 1 by a score of 3-2 in overtime, largely due to a 52-save performance by goaltender McLean.[37]After losing Games 2, 3 and 4, the Canucks won the next two to force a seventh game at Madison Square Garden on June 14, 1994.[15]Despite a two-goal effort (one on a shorthanded breakaway) from Linden (who was playing with cracked ribs),[38]Vancouver lost the game by a 3-2 score. The Canucks' efforts to tie the game included a post hit by forward Nathan LaFayette with just over a minute remaining in regulation.[39]The loss was followed by a riot in Downtown Vancouver, which resulted in property damage, injuries, and arrests.[40]Two days after the riots, the team held a rally at BC Placeattended by 45,000 fans, who congratulated the team for their effort.[41][edit]1994-2001: 25th Anniversary, new arena, and a new beginningWith a young core that included Linden, Bure and McLean still in their twenties after the 1994 playoffs, the Canucks appeared poised to remain contenders in the league.[39]However, the team failed to record a winning season in the six years following their Stanley Cup Finals appearance.[16]Prior to the lockout-shortened 1994-95 season, Quinn stepped down as head coach to focus on his managerial duties and was replaced by Rick Ley;[42]Vancouver finished with a .500 record that year.[16]Their elimination from the 1995 Stanley Cup playoffs in Game 4 of the second round marked the Canucks' last game played at the Pacific Coliseum,[15][43]as the team moved into the newGeneral Motors Place (since renamed Rogers Arena), a new $160 million arena situated in Downtown Vancouver, the following season.The Canucks made another significant move in the off-season by acquiring high-scoring Russian forward Alexander Mogilny from theBuffalo Sabres, reuniting Bure with his former CSKA Moscowand national team linemate.[44]While Mogilny became the second player in team history to record 50 goals and 100 points in a season,[34][45]chiefly playing with center Cliff Ronning, the expected chemistry between Mogilny and Bure never materialized, with the latter suffering a season-ending knee injury early in the campaign.[46]Vancouver finished 1995-96 two games below .500 and were defeated in the first round of the playoffs by the Colorado Avalanche.[15][16]The season also marked the arrival of another future Canucks superstar, as Markus Naslund was acquired from the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for Alek Stojanov. The deal is regarded as one of the most lopsided trades in NHL history as Stojanov soon became a minor-leaguer, while Naslund became the team's all-time leading goal- and point-scorer years later.[47][48][49]In the 1996 off-season. Ley was replaced by Tom Renney, who lasted for less than two seasons.[50]Despite strong performances from Mogilny and team-leading point-scorer Martin Gelinas in Bure and Linden's absence (both of whom were injured for long periods of time during the season),[16]the Canucks missed the playoffs for the first of four consecutive seasons that year.[15]Making another high-profile acquisition on July 27, 1997, the Canucks signed free agent Mark Messier to a three-year deal.[51][52]They had come close to signing Wayne Gretzky the previous summer, but were reportedly spurned away when they refused to continue negotiations and gave Gretzky an ultimatum to sign.[53]Heading into the 1997-98 season, Linden resigned his captaincy for Messier, who had developed a strong reputation as a leader, having captained the Rangers over the Canucks in 1994 (he also captained the Oilers to a Stanley Cup in 1990). Linden later recalled regretting the decision, feeling that Messier generated hostility and tension in the dressing room.[54]The Canucks began the campaign overseas in a two-game series against the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim in Tokyo, Japan. It marked the first time in league history that a regular season game was held outside of North America - an effort from the league to attract attention to the sport in anticipation of the 1998 Winter Olympics, which were held in Nagano.[55]As the team's performance continued to worsen, starting the 1997-98 season with three wins in the first sixteen games, Quinn was fired as general manager after ten years with the team.[53]Soon thereafter, Renney was fired and replaced as coach by Mike Keenan, reuniting him with Messier, another central figure from the Rangers' 1994 team. Keenan's hiring reportedly exacerbated tensions between groups of Canucks players and his negative relationship with Linden was given ample media attention.[56][57]Two months into his tenure with the team, his role was expanded and he was made de facto general manager. With control of player personnel, Keenan overhauled the roster, making 10 trades within two months, most notably dealing Linden to the New York Islanders.[58]Although the trade was unpopular with fans, the Canucks received winger Todd Bertuzziin return, who would later become an integral part of the team's return to success in the next decade. Defenceman Bryan McCabe was also part of the deal, who would eventually be involved in a key transaction in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft. After the Canucks finished the 1997-98 season last in the Western Conference,[59]former NHL vice president Brian Burkewas named general manager in the summer.[60]Suffering their worst season since 1977-78 the subsequent year,[16]Keenan was fired midway through and replaced with Marc Crawford(who had won the Stanley Cup with the Colorado Avalanche in 1996).[58]Meanwhile, Pavel Bure, unhappy in Vancouver, had withheld himself from the team and requested a trade at the beginning of the campaign. By January 1999, he was dealt to the Florida Panthers in a seven-player trade, which saw eventual five-time All-Star Ed Jovanovskiheading west. The trade also involved two draft picks. Finishing last in the Western Conference for a second straight year,[61]Vancouver possessed the fourth overall pick in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft. Set on drafting highly-touted Swedish forwards Danieland Henrik Sedin, Burke orchestrated several transactions to move up to the second and third overall picks, with which he chose both players.[62]The Canucks began to show improvement in the 1999-2000 season, finishing four points out of a playoff spot.[63]During the campaign, Mogilny was traded to the New Jersey Devils for forwards Denis Pederson and Brendan Morrison. With Bure gone and Messier in the last year of his contract, several previously under-achieving players began developing into key contributors for the team, most notably Naslund and Bertuzzi. In the off-season, Messier left the team and returned to the Rangers; during the team's September 2000 training camp, held in Sweden, Naslund was selected to replace Messier as captain, a position he held for eight years, tying Smyl's record.[22]As part of the team's stay in Sweden, they played exhibition games against Swedish and Finnish teams as part of the NHL Challenge.[edit]2001-05: "West Coast Express" yearsUnder the leadership of general manager Burke and coach Crawford,[64]the Canucks once again became a playoff team. After qualifying for the post-season in 2001 and 2002 as the eighth and final seed in the Western Conference (losing to the eventual Stanley Cup winners Colorado Avalanche and Detroit Red Wings, respectively),[15]the Canucks became regular contenders for the Northwest Division title.Markus Naslund, Brendan Morrison and Todd Bertuzzi formed the "West Coast Express" line.Coinciding with the team's success in the early 2000s was the rise of captain Markus Naslund and power forward Todd Bertuzzi into high-scoring wingers and NHL All-Stars. Joined by center Brendan Morrison during the 2001-02 season, the trio were nicknamed the "West Coast Express" (after the Vancouver rail service of the same name) among Canucks fans and media.[65]Over the next three years, Naslund ranked in the top five among league scorers and was a Lester B. Pearson Award winner and Hart Memorial Trophy finalist in2003.[66][67][68][69]Bertuzzi was also a top-five scorer in the league in 2001-02 and 2002-03.[66][67]During this span, Burke made a trade with the Washington Capitals to facilitate the return of Trevor Linden.[70]The ex-captain returned to a markedly different Canucks team with a young core consisting of the aforementioned trio, defencemen Ed Jovanovskiand Mattias Ohlund, as well as goaltender Dan Cloutier.[71]In 2002-03, the Canucks lost the division title to the Colorado Avalanche on the last day of the regular season. Individually, Naslund was surpassed the same night by Avalanche forwards Peter Forsberg and Milan Hejduk for the Art Ross Trophy and Maurice Richard Trophy, respectively.[72]Entering the 2003 playoffswith the fourth seed in the West, the Canucks won their first playoff series in eight years, defeating the St. Louis Blues in seven games before losing to the Minnesota Wild in the second round.[15]Amidst a run for the team's first Northwest Division title the following season, the Canucks received significant media attention for their involvement in a violent on-ice attack during a game against the Avalanche. On March 8, 2004, Bertuzzi grabbed Avalanche forwardSteve Moorefrom behind and punched him in the head. As Moore fell to the ice, Bertuzzi landed on top of him; Moore suffered three fractured neck vertebrae, facial cuts and a concussion.[73]Bertuzzi's actions were in retaliation of a hit that Moore landed on Naslund during a previous game between the two teams.[74]For his actions, Bertuzzi was suspended by the NHL and International Ice Hockey Federation through to the start of the 2005-06 season. He also faced legal action in British Columbia court, while Moore filed lawsuits against him and the Canucks organization in Colorado and Ontario courts.Further information: Steve Moore incidentThe Canucks went on to win their first Northwest Division title that season, but lost in the first round of the 2004 playoffsto the Calgary Flames.[15]After their elimination, Burke's contract as general manager was not renewed and he was replaced by assistant general manager and director of hockey operations Dave Nonis. At 37 years old, he was the youngest general manager in team history.[75]Due to the NHL lockout, the 2004-05 season was not played. Several Canucks players went overseas to Europe to play professionally, such as Naslund and the Sedins, who all returned to their former Swedish team, Modo Hockey.[76][edit]2005-10: Post-lockoutUpon the resolution of the labour dispute between NHL players and owners, new gameplay rules were set in place for the 2005-06 season that were supposed to benefit skilled players and generate more scoring. As the Canucks' basis of success in previous seasons was built on playing a fast-paced, high-scoring style of play, expectations for the team were high going into the season.[notes 1][78]However, the team failed to qualify for the playoffs, completing the regular season ninth place in the West.[79]The first line of Naslund, Bertuzzi and Morrison suffered offensively, as all three players recorded decreased points totals.[16]Head coach Marc Crawford later recalled the campaign as a turning point for the team's offensive leadership as the Sedin twins began their rise to stardom, matching the top line's production.[80]Crawford was fired in the off-season and replaced with Alain Vigneault, who had been coach of the team's American Hockey League affiliate, the Manitoba Moose.[81]Three days after Vigneault's hiring, Nonis dealt Bertuzzi to the Florida Panthers, ending the "West Coast Express" era. In return, the Canucks received All-Star goaltender Roberto Luongo as part of a six-player trade.[82]With the acquisition of Luongo, Cloutier was traded away to the Los Angeles Kings.[83]Towel Powerin the 2007 Playoffs.With widespread changes to team personnel in 2006-07, the Canucks won the Northwest Division title for the second time in three seasons.[16]In his first season with the Canucks, Luongo was nominated for the Hart Memorial and Vezina Trophies.[84]He also tied Bernie Parentfor the second-most wins in a single-season by an NHL goaltender with 47.[85]The Canucks opened the 2007 playoffswith a quadruple-overtime win against the Dallas Stars. Ending at the 138-minute mark, the game was the longest in club history and the sixth-longest in league history.[86]The Canucks also set a league record for shots against in one game, allowing 76.[87]Vancouver won the series in seven games despite a lack of goal-scoring; Stars goalie Marty Turco recorded three shutouts in the series, becoming the only goalie to achieve the feat and still lose a series.[citation needed] Advancing to the second round, the team was defeated in five games by the Anaheim Ducks, who went on to win the Stanley Cup that year.[88]Following the playoffs, coach Vigneault received the Jack Adams Award.[84]Suffering numerous injuries to players in the 2007-08 season, the Canucks struggled and finished three points out of a playoff spot.[89]The final game of the season, a 7-1 loss to the Calgary Flames, marked Trevor Linden's last NHL game, as the former Canucks' all-time leading scorer retired.[90]Having missed the playoffs for the second time in three years,[15]the team underwent numerous personnel changes in the off-season. After Nonis was fired and replaced with former player agent Mike Gillisin April 2008,[91]longtime Canucks captain Markus Naslund, as well as Brendan Morrison, were let go via free agency.[92]Also in the off-season, on May 29, 2008, the Canucks lost defensive prospect Luc Bourdonto a fatal motorcycle crash near his hometown of Shippagan, New Brunswick.[93]With Naslund's departure, Gillis announced on September 30, 2008, that Luongo had been named team captain, marking the first time since Bill Durnanof the Montreal Canadiens in 1947 that a goaltender had been named the captain of an NHL team.[94]During the ensuing season, the Canucks retired their second jersey number in team history, hanging Linden's number 16 beside Smyl's number 12 in a pre-game ceremony on December 17, 2008.[95]Later that month, the Canucks acquired unrestricted free agent Mats Sundin.[96]The arrival of the former Toronto Maple Leafs captain and 500-goal scorer in the NHL came with expectations. However, Sundin scored at a pace below his usual pace and retired in the off-season. The team finished the regular season with another Northwest Division title and the third seed in the Western Conference.[97]In the 2009 playoffs, the Canucks swept their first round series against the St. Louis Blues (the first four-game sweep in franchise history),[98]but were defeated in six games by the Chicago Blackhawks in the second round.[99]In the 2009-10 season, the Canucks faced the longest road trip in NHL history, with 14 games over 6 weeks, from January 27 to March 13, 2010.[100]The scheduling was a result of Vancouver hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics, which shut down the NHL for 2 weeks, facilitating GM Place's use for ice hockey during the games.[101]It marked the first time that an NHL market hosted an Olympicssince the league allowed its players to compete in the games, beginning with the 1998 Games in Nagano. Among the several Canucks players named to their respective national teams, center Ryan Kesler of the United Statesand goaltender Roberto Luongo of Canadaplayed against each other in the gold medal game; Luongo and Team Canada emerged with the win.[102]As the NHL season resumed, Henrik Sedin went on to become the first Canucks player to win the Art Ross and Hart Memorial Trophies as the league's leading scorer and most valuable player, respectively.[103][104]He achieved the feat with a franchise record 112 points, surpassing Bure's mark of 110 set in 1991-92.[45]Vancouver won the Northwest Division title and finished third in the Western Conference for the second straight year. They opened the playoffs by defeating the sixth-place Los Angeles Kings in six games, but were once again eliminated by Chicago, who went on to win the Stanley Cup that year, the following round in six games.[105][edit]2010-2011: 40th anniversary seasonThe 2010-11 season began on October 9, 2010, with a pre-game ceremony to commemorate the team's 40-year anniversary. Henrik Sedin was officially named in the ceremony as the team's new captain, replacing Roberto Luongo who had relinquished his captaincy in the off-season.[106]The Canucks played the Los Angeles Kings, their first opponent in their inaugural season in 1970; both teams wore their original uniforms used in the Canucks' inaugural game. Throughout the season, the Canucks continued to celebrate their 40th anniversary with the creation of the "Ring of Honour", a permanent in-arena display commemorating their most significant players from past years. Four players were inducted during the campaign - Orland Kurtenbach, Kirk McLean, Thomas Gradin and Harold Snepsts. In December 2010, the Canucks also honoured Markus Naslund by retiring his number 19 jersey. Naslund had retired two years after leaving the Canucks in 2008.During the second half of the campaign, the Canucks were in a battles for the Western Conference and Presidents' Trophy titles with the Detroit Red Wings and Philadelphia Flyers, respectively, widening the gap as the season progressed.[107][108]On March 29, 2011, the Canucks clinched first place in the West for the first time in team history.[109]Two days later, they accomplished another first by securing the Presidents' Trophy.[110]Finishing with 54 wins and 117 points, the 2010-11 team broke the previous Canuck records in both categories by significant margins. Individually, numerous Canucks players had career years. Daniel Sedin won the Art Ross Trophy with a league-leading 104 points, marking the first time in NHL history that two brothers won the award in back-to-back years. Meanwhile, Ryan Kesler tied Daniel for the team goal-scoring lead with 41 goals. In goal, Roberto Luongo and rookie backup Cory Schneider captured the William M. Jennings Trophy for recording the lowest team goals against average in the NHL.[edit]2011 Stanley Cup runHenrik Sedin accepts the Campbell Bowlon behalf of the Canucks as the 2011 Western Conference champions.Entering the 2011 Stanley Cup playoffs, the Canucks were paired with the eighth-seeded and defending Stanley Cup champion Chicago Blackhawks, who had eliminated Vancouver in the previous two years. While Vancouver initially took a 3-0 lead in the series, Chicago came back to also win three straight games and force the series into a game seven. Luongo, who had a history of struggling against the Blackhawks, was pulled in Games 4 and 5; he also began Game 6 on the bench in favour of Cory Schneider before returning as the starter in Game 7. In the deciding game, Vancouver held a 1-0 lead with less than two minutes remaining in regulation when they gave up a shorthanded goal to Chicago captain Jonathan Toews. Forced into overtime, wingerAlexandre Burrows scored his second goal of the game following a failed clearing attempt by Chicago defenceman Chris Campoli to win the series.In the Conference Semifinals, the Canucks faced the defensive-minded Nashville Predators, led by goaltender Pekka Rinne. Of the 14 goals Vancouver scored in the low-scoring series, Canucks center Ryan Kesler registered a point in 11 of them, helping the Canucks defeat the Predators in six games. Facing the San Jose Sharks in the Conference Finals, captain Henrik Sedin led the Canucks with 12 points in the five-game series. Vancouver defeated San Jose four-games-to-one with a double-overtime winner from defenceman Kevin Bieksain the fifth game.Advancing to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time since 1994, the Canucks opened the fourth round against the Boston Bruins with a 1-0 win in Game 1. Winger Raffi Torresscored the winning goal with 18.5 seconds remaining. The following game, the Canucks won 3-2 in overtime with Burrows scoring the winner 11 seconds into the extra frame, making it the second fastest overtime goal in Stanley Cup Finals history.[111]As the series shifted from Rogers Arena to TD Garden for Games 3 and 4, Boston tied the series with 8-1 and 4-0 victories. Game 3 marked the highest score by one team in a Finals game since the Avalanche defeated the Panthers in 1996.[112]During the contest, the Bruins lost first-line forward Nathan Horton for the remainder of the series when he suffered a serious concussion from a controversial hit by Canucks defenceman Aaron Rome, who received a four-game suspension as a result.[113]Returning to Vancouver for Game 5, the Canucks won 1-0 with a goal from late-season acquisition Maxim Lapierre in the third period.[114]With an opportunity to win the Stanley Cup in Boston, Vancouver lost Game 6 by a 5-2 score. The Bruins' first four goals occurred in a span of 4 minutes and 14 seconds during the first period, setting a Finals record for the fastest four goals scored by a team (surpassing the previous mark of 5 minutes and 29 seconds set by the Montreal Canadiens in 1956).[115]Hosting Game 7, the Canucks were shut out 4-0 as Boston won their first Stanley Cup in 39 years, setting off riots and looting in downtown Vancouver.[116][edit]2011-12: Consecutive Presidents' TrophiesDuring the season opening game against the Pittsburgh Penguins a tribute video was held by the fans in Rogers Arena congratulating the Canucks' fortieth season and for making the Stanley Cup Finals. They also honoured the late Rick Rypien on October 18, 2011. For the rest of the season, they will wear decals on their helmets saying "37 RYP." The Canucks were also involved with a couple of trades during the 2011-12 season when they traded Mikael Samuelsson and the recently acquired Marco Sturm to the Florida Panthers for David Booth, Steven Reinprecht, and a 2013 Draft Pick. They would not trade again until February 27, when this time, young rookie player Cody Hodgson, along with Alexander Sulzer, was traded to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for Zach Kassian and Marc-Andre Gragnani. The Canucks spent most of the 2011-2012 season catching up with other Western Conference teams to make the playoffs, they would catch up with the St. Louis Blues to be top seed of the Western Conference, as well as catching up with the New York Rangers for the President's Trophy. It took until the last game of the season (game 82) to clinch the western conference and President's Trophy when the Rangers lost to the Washington Capitals 4-1, and Vancouver defeated their division rival Edmonton Oilers 3-0. It was the first time since the 1990-91 Chicago Blackhawks, that a team won both their conference and President's Trophy at the same time on the last day of the regular season. It is Vancouver's second consecutive President's Trophy. Despite their incredible regular season record, Vancouver's inability to stay out of the penalty box cost them gravely as they fell 4-2 at home in games 1 and 2, and failed to score in game 3 as the eighth seed Los Angeles Kings took a commanding 3-0 series lead on home ice. However, during the 4th game, the Canucks picked it up and forced a 5th game winning 3-1. This did not last long though, as the Canucks lost Game 5 to the Kings with a score of 2-1 in overtime, eliminating them from the playoffs. Vancouver's loss in the first round of the 2012 Playoffs also marked the third consecutive year that the Canucks lost to the eventual Stanley Cup champions. (Chicago 2010, Boston 2011, and Los Angeles 2012)[edit]2012-13: Lockout and shortened seasonFurther information: 2012-13 NHL lockoutPrior to the start of the 2012-13 season the league's Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) expired. Unable to agree on a new CBA the NHL enacted a lockout on September 15, 2012. The lockout continued on for 119 days which resulted in the need for a shortened season.[117][118]After the lockout ended, the Vancouver Canucks played their first game of the season on January 19, 2013, losing 7-3 to the Anaheim Ducks.[edit]Team information[edit]OwnershipThe initial owners were Tom Scallen's Medicor group. In 1972, hints of impropriety were circulating about Scallen. He was charged with stock fraud and spent the last two years of his Canuck ownership in prison.[citation needed] In 1974 Scallen and Medicor sold out toFrank Griffiths. From 1988 to 1997, the Vancouver Canucks were owned by local businessman and philanthropist Arthur Griffiths, who had inherited ownership from his father, Frank. However, he was forced to sell his majority interest in the Canucks after overextending his resources trying to build a new arena, GM Place (currently known as Rogers Arena). As a result, he sold his majority share to American billionaire John McCaw, Jr..On November 17, 2004, the Anmoli Investment Group, headed by Francesco Aquilini, purchased a 50% share in Orca Bay Sports and Entertainment (the owners of both the Canucks franchise and Rogers Arena) from John McCaw, Jr.. Prior to the sale, Aquilini and two business partners, Tom Gaglardi and Ryan Beedie, had negotiated with Orca Bay for several months without concluding an agreement. In January 2005, Gaglardi and Beedie filed a lawsuit against Aquilini and Orca Bay, alleging that Aquilini and Orca Bay had acted in bad faith in concluding a deal using information obtained from their joint offer.On November 8, 2006, Aquilini, along with his brothers Roberto and Paolo, purchased the remaining 50% of the Vancouver Canucks and Rogers Arena from McCaw.[119][120]In May 2007, Gaglardi and Beedie's civil lawsuit over Aquilini's purchase reached the Supreme Court of British Columbia. The court ruled for Aquilini, on January 10, 2008. The court held that there was no legal partnership between Aquilini, Beedie, and Gaglardi, and that McCaw was free to sell the team to anyone he wished.[121]On January 29, 2008 the company responsible for operating the Vancouver Canucks and Rogers Arena, changed its name from Orca Bay Sports and Entertainment to Canucks Sports & Entertainment.[edit]Logos and jerseysThe team has gone through thirteen different logo and jersey changes in its history.The "Stick-in-Rink", 1970-78; alternate logo, 2003-2007.The team's first NHL jerseys, worn from the inaugural season of 1970-71 (modified for the 1972-73 season) until the end of the 1977-78 season, featured a hockey stick in the shape of a shallow "V" superimposed on a blue rink-shaped rectangle forming the letter "C", designed by North Vancouver artist, Joe Borovich. A modified version of this logo is still in use, as a shoulder patch on the team's current jerseys and as the primary logo of their Alternate jerseys.In 1978, aiming for a more aggressive image, the organization asked a San Francisco design agency, Beyl & Boyd, to design new uniforms. These consisted of a huge yellow, red-orange, and black striped "V" coming down from the shoulders (suggesting "victory", according to its designers). It is generally considered to be one of the most unpopular uniforms in NHL history (hockey writer Stephen Cole referred to it looking like 'a punch in the eye').The "Flying Skate", 1978-1997.The "Flying V" theme was abandoned in 1985, to feature the team's emblem on the front rather than the "V" (the emblem had previously been worn only on the arms). The logo consisted of the word "Canucks" in a diagonal slant as part the blade of a skate. The logo, with its laser-like design, was sometimes referred to as the "Star Wars" logo, the "waffle iron", the "plate of spaghetti", and most commonly, the "Flying Skate". The yellow home jerseys were scrapped in 1989 in favour of more conventional white ones, and the triangular shoulder stripes which adorned the post-"V" jerseys were discarded as well. The new incarnation was worn from 1989-92, when a subtle change was made - and went largely unnoticed for the rest of the jersey's lifespan. The orange was changed to red, and the deep "gold" colour was changed to a much brighter yellow, reportedly because jersey-maker CCM no longer produced the required hues. In 1996, an alternate jersey was introduced, retaining the "Flying Skate" logo, but using a salmon colour graduating to black near the bottom.Orca logo, 1997-2007.In 1997 the Canucks unveiled a new logo, in which a Haida-style orca breaking out of a patch of ice forms a stylized "C". The logo has been much-maligned, accused of being a blatant reference to their parent company, Orca Bay (now Canucks Sports and Entertainment). At the time, general manager Pat Quinndiscussed wanting to have a West Coast colour scheme, and overall West Coast themes in the logo; the colour scheme included blue, red, and silver. Beginning in 2001, an alternate jersey was utilized, with contrasting shoulder patches and a blue-to-maroon graduated colour in the body. In 2006 these gradient-coloured alternate jerseys were officially replaced with the popular, royal blue "Stick-in-Rink" uniforms from the 1970s."The Stick-in-Rink", modified; alternate logo, 2007-.Little more than halfway through the 2006-07 season, the Canucks announced that they would be changing their jerseys once again. While a report in February 2007 suggested the new scheme would be revealed on August 1, 2007, the new team jersey was actually unveiled prior to training camp, on August 29, 2007. It featured the same orca design present on their previous jerseys, but the colour scheme was updated to their "retro" colours of royal blue and kelly green. Additionally, the word "Vancouver" was added to the chest area above the orca. This move was seen as a way to connect the NHL Canucks' uniform to that of the WHL team, whose members wore uniforms with the word "Canucks" along the top in a similar arched design. The actual jerseys themselves were changed to the Rbk Edgedesign, along with all other teams in the NHL. The introduction was largely greeted with disappointment from fans and sports commentators, who criticized the uniforms for looking like a "copy and paste" of those from the past. The Vancouver Sundescribed the new look as "decidedly unpopular."[122]"Johnny Canuck" Reebok third jersey shoulder logo, modified; 2008-.On November 14, 2008, prior to their Sport Celebrities Festival, the Canucks released their new RBK Edge Third Jersey. While staying with the colours of Vancouver, and combining the old with the new, the jersey looks very similar to their home jersey. The modernized "Stick-in-Rink" logo unveiled the previous year on the shoulder of the main jerseys is used as the main crest. On the shoulder, a V with the head of Johnny Canuckon top is used. This is the first time in team history since joining the NHL that Johnny Canuck has appeared on a Vancouver uniform. Sports Illustrated rated it 13th overall out of the 19 third jerseys released for the 2008 season.[123]Canucks Home Logo; 2007-.On opening night October 9, 2010, the Canucks revealed jerseys they would wear for select games during their 40th Anniversary season. They look exactly like the jerseys the team wore in their early years, only with the addition of Reebokmanufacturing the jerseys. The jerseys sport a 40th Anniversary patch on the upper-right chest commemorating their 40th season. Just like the early years, they also bear no names, only numbers, with permission from the NHL.[edit]MediaSee also: List of Vancouver Canucks broadcastersAfter a relationship with CKNWstretching since the Canucks joined the NHL in 1970, the Canucks entered into a new radio broadcast deal in 2006 with The Team 1040- an AMsports/talk station. John Shorthouse continues to call the play-by-play, as he has since 1999, though with his role on the Canucks' television broadcasts becoming more prominent in recent years, he is replaced for approximately 55 games per season by Rick Ball. He is joined with colour commentary by Dave Tomlinson, who has been with the broadcasts since 2010.[124]The games aired on 14 stations across British Columbia.In addition to national TV broadcasts on Hockey Night in Canada and on TSN, the Canucks also have arrangements with Sportsnet Pacific. These games are called by Shorthouse and former Canucks goaltender John Garrett. Since the 2010-11 season, Sportsnet Vancouver Hockey, a companion channel to the new national sports channel Rogers Sportsnet One, has aired Canucks regional telecasts that are not able to fit into Sportsnet Pacific's schedule.[125][126]Additionally, as of the 2010-11 season, Rogers acquired the naming rightsto the Canucks' home arena.[127][edit]MascotThe Vancouver Canucks' mascot is an anthropomorphickiller whale(orca) named Fin Orca or Fin the Whale. He is often seen banging a First Nations drum, or skating around during intermission firing t-shirts out of a compressed air cannon. On occasion, "smoke" also comes out of the blowhole on his head. Fin has his trademarked chomping where he bites the heads of fans.Two fans of the Canucks unofficially became mascots of their team at the end of 2009, donning zentai-style skin-tight green bodsysuits in slightly different shades of green as The Green Men, and have been known to accompany their team on road games, as they did in the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals to the TD Gardenagainst the Boston Bruins.[edit]Home arenasPacific Coliseum, home of the Canucks from 1970-1995.Rogers Arena, current home of the Canucks.The Canucks play their home games at Rogers Arena and skate out toU2's Where the Streets Have No Name. The stadium opened in 1995 as General Motors Place, and seats up to 18,890 for Canucks games. Rogers Arena was also the 2010 Winter Olympics' ice hockey venue. The arena is owned and operated by Canucks Sports & Entertainment. Before moving to Rogers Arena, the Canucks played their home games at Pacific Coliseum in Hastings Park for 25 years. The arena currently holds 16,281 for ice hockey, though capacity at its opening was 15,713. During the 2010 Olympics, it was the venue for figure skating and short track speed skating. The Pacific Coliseum is now the home of the Vancouver Giants.[edit]Minor league affiliates[edit]Top affiliates1970-71 to 1971-72 Rochester Americans (AHL)1972-73 to 1974-75 Seattle Totems (WHL, CHL)1975-76 to 1977-78 Tulsa Oilers (CHL)1978-79 to 1981-82 Dallas Black Hawks (CHL)1982-83 to 1987-88 Fredericton Express (AHL)1988-89 to 1991-92 Milwaukee Admirals (IHL)1992-93 to 1993-94 Hamilton Canucks (AHL)1994-95 to 1999-2000 Syracuse Crunch (AHL)2000-01 Kansas City Blades (IHL)2001-02 to 2010-11 Manitoba Moose (AHL)2011-12 to present Chicago Wolves (AHL)[edit]Secondary affiliates1987-88 Flint Spirits (IHL)1991-92 Columbus Chill (ECHL)2002-03 to 2005-06 Columbia Inferno (ECHL)2006-07 to 2010-11 Victoria Salmon Kings (ECHL)2011-12 to present Kalamazoo Wings (ECHL)[edit]Season-by-season recordSee also: List of Vancouver Canucks seasonsNote: GP = Games played, W = Wins, L = Losses, T = Ties, OTL = Overtime Losses, Pts = Points, GF = Goals for, GA = Goals againstRecords as of April 10, 2011.[128][129]Season GP W L OTL Pts GF GA Finish Playoffs 2007-08 82 39 33 10 88 213 215 5th, Northwest Did not qualify 2008-09 82 45 27 10 100 246 220 1st, Northwest Lost in Conference Semifinals, 2-4 (Blackhawks) 2009-10 82 49 28 5 103 272 222 1st, Northwest Lost in Conference Semifinals, 2-4 (Blackhawks) 2010-11 82 54 19 9 117 262 185 1st, Northwest Lost in Finals, 3-4 (Bruins) 2011-12 82 51 22 9 111 249 198 1st, Northwest Lost in Conference Quarterfinals, 1-4 (Kings) [edit]PlayersMain article: List of Vancouver Canucks players[edit]Current rosterviewtalkeditUpdated February 9, 2013.[130]# NatPlayer Pos /G Age Acquired Birthplace 41 Andrew Alberts D L 31 2010 Minneapolis, Minnesota 4 Keith Ballard D L 30 2010 Baudette, Minnesota 18 Cam BarkerD L 26 2013 Winnipeg, Manitoba 3 Kevin Bieksa(A) D R 31 2001 Grimsby, Ontario 7 David BoothLW L 28 2011 Detroit, Michigan 14 Alex BurrowsRW L 31 2005 Pincourt, Quebec 25 Andrew EbbettC/LW L 30 2011 Vernon, British Columbia 23 Alexander Edler D L 26 2004 Östersund, Sweden 5 Jason Garrison D L 28 2012 White Rock, British Columbia 2 Dan Hamhuis D L 30 2010 Smithers, British Columbia 36 Jannik Hansen RW R 26 2004 Herlev, Denmark 20 Christopher Higgins LW L 29 2011 Smithtown, New York 9 Zack KassianRW R 22 2012 Kingsville, Ontario 17 Ryan Kesler(A) C R 28 2003 Livonia, Michigan 40 Maxim Lapierre C R 27 2011 Montreal, Quebec 1 Roberto Luongo G L 33 2006 Montreal, Quebec 27 Manny Malhotra (A) C L 32 2010 Mississauga, Ontario 21 Mason RaymondLW L 27 2005 Cochrane, Alberta 35 Cory Schneider G L 26 2004 Marblehead, Massachusetts 45 Jordan Schroeder C R 22 2009 Burnsville, Minnesota 22 Daniel Sedin (A) LW L 32 1999 Örnsköldsvik, Sweden 33 Henrik Sedin(C) C L 32 1999 Örnsköldsvik, Sweden 8 Chris TanevD R 23 2010 Toronto, Ontario 15 Aaron Volpatti LW L 27 2010 Revelstoke, British Columbia 32 Dale WeiseRW R 24 2011 Winnipeg, Manitoba[edit]Retired numbersGame-worn jerseys belonging to Wayne Maki, Pavel Bureand Glen Hanlonon display at Rogers Arena.Vancouver Canucks Retired numbers No. Player Position Career No. retirement 12 Stan SmylRW 1978-91 November 3, 1991 16 Trevor Linden RW 1988-98, 2001-08 December 17, 2008 19 Markus Naslund LW 1996-2008 December 11, 2010 99 1 Wayne Gretzky C - February 6, 2000 [131] Notes:1 Gretzky never played for the franchise.

(NHL draft custom states that draftees are given jerseys with the number indicating the year they were drafted.)[edit]Team captainsThere have been 13 Canucks players who have served as the captain. The franchise's first captain was Orland Kurtenbach, who captained the team until his retirement in 1974.[132]The longest-tenured Canucks captain was Stan Smyl, who was appointed for eight seasons. Trevor Linden, who captained from 1990 to 1997, played 16 seasons with the Canucks, a franchise high.[133]Swedish wingerMarkus Naslund, who captained for seven seasons[a], was the only non-Canadian to have captained the Canucks until fellow SwedeHenrik Sedinwas named captain for the 2010-11 season. Smyl and Sedin are the only Canucks captains to have spent their entire NHL playing careers with the team.[134][135]Though goaltendersare not permitted to act as captains during games, Roberto Luongo served as the captain from 2008 to 2010, but because of the NHL rule against goaltender captains, the league did not allow Luongo to serve as on-ice captain .[136][137]In his place, the three alternate captains were responsible for dealing with officialsduring games. They also handled ceremonial face-offs.[137]Luongo was not permitted to wear the "C" on his jersey. Instead he incorporated it into the artwork on the front of one of his maskswhich he occasionally wore for the early months of the 2008-09 season.[138]Orland Kurtenbach, 1970-74Andre Boudrias, 1975-76Chris Oddleifson, 1976-77Don Lever, 1977-79Kevin McCarthy, 1979-82Stan Smyl, 1982-90Dan Quinn, Doug Lidsterand Trevor Linden, 1990-91 (tri-captains)Trevor Linden, 1991-97Mark Messier, 1997-00Markus Naslund, 2000-08Roberto Luongo, 2008-10Henrik Sedin, 2010-present[edit]Draft picksMain article: List of Vancouver Canucks draft picksThe Canucks drafted Trevor Linden in the 1988 NHL Entry Draft.The Canucks selected Dale Tallon, a defencemanfrom the Toronto Marlboros with their first pick, second overall in the 1970 NHL Amateur Draft.

The Canucks are one of the two franchises in the NHL to have drafted two twin brothers in the same year. They drafted Daniel Sedin second overall andHenrik Sedin third overall in 1999.[140][edit]Franchise scoring leadersThese are the top-ten point-scorers in franchise history.

The franchise's first head coach was Hal Laycoe, who coached the Canucks for two seasons. Marc Crawford coached the most games of any Canucks head coach with 529 games and has the most points all-time with the Canucks with 586 points. He is followed by Pat Quinn, who has 310 points all-time with the Canucks. Alain Vigneault has the most points in a season of any Canucks coach, with 117 in the 2010-11 season.
