The Stanchies: Prime Lankinen returns, #Canucks still go winless on road trip with 4-2 loss to Lightning

#Canucks hit the ice for practice ahead of their California trip. Maintenance day for Hronek and Karlsson.

The vintage EP40-Boeser connection, welcome back. #Canucks

Max Sasson, smooth as ice. #Canucks

Kaprizov is just a whole other beast with time and space

yeah that wasn't it

Ooooooooooooof course he scored

How on earth do you miss that high stick

Honestly, Meriläinen and the #Canucks have looked really locked in so far. Some of the best energy they've had all year in that first period. If they can reset and refind that ferocity after giving up the opening goal they're still in this.

Broadcast already has enough video for a Greatest Hits compilation. #Canucks

One doesn't touch the Merlin Wall and get away with it. #Canucks

Listen, it was probably inevitable Quinn Hughes was going to leave but it’s still an utter failure that the organization wasn’t something that was incredibly hard to say no to. The San Antonio Spurs spent all their energy on making themselves essential to Tim Duncan. Hard to say Canucks did same.

I would classify the fan reaction to Quinn Hughes' tribute video as "mixed", to say the least. #Canucks

DOC and EP40 with tag team hit on Hughes. #Canucks

The chants begin 👀 #Canucks

Sportsnet's NHL clips show just played Mark Messier's 600th goal, which he scored with the Canucks. Feels a little on the nose to show the last polarizing former captain.

All you can hope for from the #Canucks tonight is that they feed off the crowd energy and it lights a fire under them. If there's a game that could earn them a lot of goodwill with a victory and erase all the losses, it's this one.

Asked today about what he’s going to do to keep the Whitecaps in town, premier designate Lorne Doerkson calmly replies he’s going to talk to the Caps but also admits he really doesn’t know enough about the situation. ‘Trust me when I say this: British Columbia loves the Whitecaps.’ So we’ll see.

Whoever told Eby this election was a good idea should probably not work in politics again. All-time own goal.

Our rugby women are the real deal. They're best in the world on the pitch. Off the pitch, they're not. It's time to pay them. theprovince.com/sports/rugby...

"It's the same stuff game after game... It's embarrassing." Brock Boeser did not hold back about the #Canucks efforts this season after their loss to the Red Wings, & questioned whether his teammates have been listening to the coaches. New @dfovancouver:

No fanbase in hockey understands comedy or how to be hilarious like #Canucks fans. Just incredible

Take THAT one away, NHL stat people

Oh boy

Really feel for Lankinen. A rebuilding team's not an ideal place to be for a goalie when your confidence in your game isn't near its peak. No room for error, and very little chance to make serious gains in confidence when you're getting bombarded with shots every night.

Mo Seider is playing in his 420th consecutive NHL game, a fun fact that Shorty of course couldn't miss a chance to point out.

The most highly anticipated video of the season: trying the new #Canucks ice cream sandwiches. 🍦 youtube.com/shorts/v...

Liam Öhgren stayed out late after the Canucks’ optional morning skate. Looks likely to be a scratch tonight

I already can't wait for the inevitable Sens-Panthers playoff series this is all leading to.

The #Goldeneyes unveiled their brand new, duck-inspired sweaters on Wednesday, checking off the final item on a #PWHL expansion team's to-do list and creating one of the best uniforms in hockey. More on the jerseys and quotes from Goldeneyes players here: lachinthecrease.subs...

Stützle wanted that revenge goal BADLY. He wasn't gonna be denied today.

Not even remotely surprised #8 scored in Ottawa. That's as close to scripted as the NHL gets lol

#Goldeneyes officially unveil their new sweaters. Easily the best look in the league

#Canucks practicing with the Black Skate gear today ahead of tomorrow's matchup against the Red Wings.

Sometimes you make a save so nice that even *you* don't know where the puck is. #Canucks

I enjoyed Filip Hronek shouting out, "Hey Petey!" and giving him the head nod for where to go to help in the board battle. #Canucks

The #Canucks tribute to Cheech with his family in attendance. Lovely video

The broadcast's opening tribute to Cheech from @sportsnetmurph.bsky.social and Shorty.

Manny wearing a heckuva shirt today. No ketchup stain…yet

Sophie Jaques is the only #Goldeneyes player to make Canada's roster for the #WomensWorlds. No Jenn Gardiner is especially surprising. hockeycanada.ca/en-ca/team-c...

The #Goldeneyes are holding a "historic unveiling" for media at the Pacific Coliseum this Wednesday. 👀 What could it be about? I guess we'll jer have to wait and sey... I mean, just wait and see.

Thinking a lot about Ken Sim drinking beer with Whitecaps fans in Miami last December talking all confidently about saving the Whitecaps…then did basically nothing. Also about his MOU with the Canucks at Britannia that was roundly dumped on by the community and now seems pretty dead in the water.

No more road trips maybe.

At least it wasn't a hat trick goal this time

Kevin Lankinen has been very, very good to start this game. What a save. #Canucks

Kevin Lankinen looking like a young @lachinthecrease.com on that save

Hahaha Kevin Lankinen is back to stealing players' lifeforces

ICYMI: The refs literally got in the #Canucks way against the Panthers
