Elliotte on Canucks GM search bombshell:

I'm starting to hear there's 2-3 lists. There's a Rutherford list, there's an ownership list and there might be another one.

(Oilers Now)

Canucks full statement on Trevor Beggs below and includes:

"...the credential referenced will not be reinstated. There was no negotiation or a condition to have the article retracted in order to keep the credential.”

Kyper: Patrik Allvin I think has told a few people close around him that he doesn't expect to be back.

Vancouver reporter says Canucks revoked press credentials and removed him from game following story about ownership Trevor Beggs, who covers the Vancouver Canucks for Daily Hive Vancouver, says that the team revoked his press credential and removed him from the rink.

Canucks at it again. 🤣🤣

When tossing a sports reporter from the rink becomes a story PJ's Ponderings: When you throw someone out because of what they wrote, you are inevitably going to draw attention

Apparently the Canucks didn't know about the Streisand effect?

Here is Beggs talking about it on the Locked On Canucks Podcast. He seems like a great guy and a very hard worker. Pretty crappy move by the team/ownership. #FreeBeggs #Canucks

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

Will know more soon.

Canucks: Elias Pettersson's struggles pain him. Is his future here? As we approach the trade deadline, we can't help but wonder if the final fix for Elias Pettersson lies with another team?

Speaking with Elias Pettersson hasn’t been easy at the best of times but my chat with him today revealed emotions that we’ve not often seen. You’re frustrated watching him? Imagine how frustrated he is with himself.

You have to listen to Halford and Borough's 2nd hour of the show as a podcast. They have Frank Seravalli on the show to defend himself, Brough respectfully pushed back and Frank had a meltdown.

This was unbelievable radio and we should all listen to it. Brough is the best of them #Canucks #Olympics

Immensely sad to hear Jim Robson has died.

He was truly the voice of my youth. Many talk about ‘Greg Adams! Greg Adams!’ but I watched that game on TV so my memory of his was calling the Canucks’ OT win in ‘91 pushed them into the playoffs.

And as a writer he was always so kind and supportive.

Facing 20 years.

Canucks luck to the extreme.

This interview actually gives hope for the future if he's allowed to see it through.

Hope this interview doesn't get him fired 🤣

Taylor: If he wants to move it along quickly because of his age, that's wrong!

Dhaliwal: Jim has won Stanley Cups, he's one of the best executives of all-time.

Taylor: I could open a gate for Sidney Crosby and Malkin too 🔥🔥🤣🤣

Where are the Abbotsford Canucks' championship rings? Patrick Johnston: When you win a championship, you get a ring. The Canucks are, at best, dragging their feet on this file. Read more.

I'm just so tired, friends

Abbotsford Canucks players still waiting on Calder Cup championship rings - Abbotsford News Team has not commented on whether rings will be presented or not, usually done at home opener

Ridiculous story. What a way to treat your players.

Fans as bags as money. Players as chattel.

What a scoop by @benlypka.bsky.social

Canucks: How Jim Rutherford convinced ownership to rebuild Last week they traded Quinn Hughes, the best defenceman in team history, and managed to recoup one of the best hauls in team history.

Did I put Botch's concept of needing an army of guys to Jim Rutherford? Sure did.

Did he agree? Sure did.

My column:

theprovince.com/sports/hocke...

Elliotte didn't say this but after listening it's clear it's a matter when not if with a Hughes trade.

Canucks are currently talking about a Hughes trade with multiple teams (including Wings and Devils)

Elliotte on Hughes trade:

"I think teams are talking with the Canucks about it."

(32 Thoughts)

Elliotte with the bombshell:

"I think there are talks going on around Hughes. It's just difficult to handicap how long it's going to take or where it's going to end up."

(32 Thoughts)

Moj bomb:

"I’m hearing that if this slide continues, you could see some changes within the team’s management group after Christmas."

mapleridgenews.com/2025/12/05/t...

Jim Rutherford on Quinn Hughes:

“I believe Quinn and his agent are aware of the direction we want to go. And they’re aware of the direction they want to go. Everybody wants to play on a winning team. But there’s different reasons why people make decisions"

(via PJ)

#hegone

Time to trade: Jim Rutherford says Canucks need to get younger Jim Rutherford says the Vancouver Canucks' unrestricted free agents are now available for trade.

"Use whatever word people like, whether it's somewhat of a rebuild, not a full blown rebuild, but a rebuild-retool, whatever." -- JR said this to me unprompted.

Hearing it's preventative maintenance

Canucks GM Patrik Allvin tells me neither Conor Garland nor Quinn Hughes are travelling with the team. Canucks flying to St. Louis today.

Allvin still hopeful Hughes can join the team in either Minnesota or Nashville.

Lawsuit claims some Aquilini grandchildren cut out of Canucks family fortune The Aquilini family through the Aquilini Investment Group controls a business empire across Canada and the United States.

Who else is excited for the #Canucks to start the season?

Dhaliwal: "Canucks number 1 priority on July 1st wasn't Brock Boeser, it was Dvorak. They got into a bidding war with Philly for Dvorak...Don't kid yourself Canucks number 1 option wasn't Boeser. They went to Boeser once they lost Dvorak"

Elliotte was asked about the Evander Kane situation over the weekend where he was allegedly attacked/punched at Pierre's.

He said he doesn't want to comment on it right now and guess about what happened. Wants to hear all the details first.

3 years ago, Rutherford and Allvin walked into the ashes of Jim Benning's destruction and apparently thought to themselves: "what if we could make this even worse? 🤔"
