The Vancouver Canucks have never been in favour of a rebuild, but one former player thinks it's probably time for the team to do so.

The Vancouver Canucks continue their road trip with a Sunday afternoon matchup against the Tampa Bay Lightning, playing their first game of a back-to-back against the Florida teams. Note the 2:00 p.m.

In all situations, as mentioned, it’s Hronek who leads the Canucks in minutes played. Of the Canucks’ top-five in TOI, four of these players are defenders — Marcus Pettersson (401:04), Tyler Myers (397:55), and Hughes (378:01). Elias Pettersson is the lone forward to place in the top-five in minutes played this season with 384:12.

The Vancouver Canucks will open a brutally difficult road trip on Friday without the services of Thatcher Demko and with Quinn Hughes’ status for the game uncertain after he missed the team’s practice on Thursday afternoon in Raleigh,

Vancouver Canucks president Jim Rutherford has hinted at what his team would ask for in return if they traded their star player.

The Vancouver Canucks have placed Thatcher Demko on injured reserve with a lower-body injury. In a corresponding roster move, the team has activated defenseman Victor Mancini, according to a team announcement.

Kämpf, a valuable penalty-killer and faceoff man, was waived by the Maple Leafs on Thursday and cleared waivers to become a UFA on Friday.

Sundin's career with the Canucks was short but impactful. The Hall of Famer signed with Vancouver on December 18, 2008, and put up 28 points in 41 games. As for his most memorable moment, that came on February 21, 2009, when Sundin scored against the Toronto Maple Leafs in the shootout during his return to Toronto.
