Boeser says what Canucks fans were thinking after Pettersson ends epic goal drought | Sports Shoot the puck. That's a familiar refrain from Vancouver Canucks fans when it comes to Elias Pettersson, who has been so reluctant to do so.

“We need him to let that bomb go… Even if it hurts a guy, like that’s fine.”

What Brock Boeser and Adam Foote said about Elias Pettersson on a rare fun night for the #Canucks at Rogers Arena dailyhive.com/vancouver/bo...

Sounds like folks who show up at tonight’s #Canucks game with a paper bag for headwear will be escorted out and could be banned.

At a Goldeneyes game and on the jumbo screen an audience member was asked “name a famous athlete” and the person said “Messier” and the crowd booed and I truly love how we’ve held onto this very legitimate grievance for 25 years

Canucks have made "a couple of minor moves" I'm told.

Will know more soon.

Confirms the team's four UFAs are available for a trade.

Even said "rebuild" himself -- though with a laugh and not as a definitional word

the vancouver canucks are not good

but are they fun to watch? also no

but are they young and on the upswing? regretfully, no

but are they beloved in the community? increasingly not!

but do they have good ownership? so uh the thing is

Apologies to all Geelong fans. I sat down to watch just after half time and well here we are. @robthehockeyguy.bsky.social told me before I got here it was an ‘instant classic’

When will we see Thomas Müller in a Whitecaps' jersey? I have been told to circle the date for the home match against Houston Dynamo on August 17.

As for his jersey number, I was told that will be a surprise but that they have something in mind. #VWFC

Echoing and extending on what Dhali and Drancer have put together: sounds like Canucks' head coaching job is coming down to Adam Foote or Manny Malhtora, with Malhotra the slight favourite.

To me… Cole was a stabilizing guy that played top four minutes. Had a bad playoffs and is old.. but I would have brought him back on a one-year deal

I liked the Forbort contract. But don’t you like Cole at $3.1M a lot more than Desharnais at $2M? Could have saved money in other ways.

Vancouver Canucks would be foolish to sell low on Soucy | Sports J.T. Miller is gone but trade rumours persist for the Vancouver Canucks. Now it's Carson Soucy getting his name mentioned.

Trade Soucy? I wouldn’t.

#Canucks should learn the lesson from the Ian Cole decision.

Miller not at dice and ice. ‘Food poisoning’ the reason

Now there is plausible deniability in this because there were a bunch of people in the arena who fell ill the last few days. I was one. Sat and Riccio. Heard a couple dozen others. Pre game meal on Thursday the suspect. Not sure about players.

Another team I wonder about is Detroit.

Stevie Y surely sees a need to make another move and I'm told would likely be interested in one of the Canucks' centres.

No idea if Canucks really want to deal either. But Patrik Allvin also admitted to me he's not hanging up on other GMs. Big offer needed.

Pettersson shouted "read the room" back at me after he left in a huff.

Still amazed no one apparently told him what his captain and coach talked about earlier today.

The reason it's taking so long to come up with a Filip Hronek injury timeline is because the team is seeking multiple opinions on the injury.

Timeline is very different with surgery and no surgery.

Either way, he will be out a while.

How Sportsnet has covered the Canucks games this week tells you everything about how little they care about the product.

Leafs highlights to lead the intermission. Endless doses of Luke Gazdic...when there *is* a panel at all.
