If the Vancouver Canucks don’t sign Filip Hronek, it will be a step backward for a team that spent years looking for him. We’ve mentioned before how no sport is as heavily influenced by luck as hockey is.
The Vancouver Canucks pretty much have to be satisfied with Quinn Hughes’ performance in the 2023/24 season. And, consequently, they have to be satisfied with the performance of the Hughes/Filip Hronek pairing.
Like many of you, we here at CanucksArmy are still processing the sudden end of the Vancouver Canucks’ 2023/24 season. But whether we’ve processed it or not, the season is over, and that means that the offseason has begun.
There wasn’t going to be a positive article without a negative one. For every Canuck that exceeded expectations in this playoff run, there were just as many that disappointed.

The Edmonton Oilers are going to the Western Conference Final for the second time in three years.
The Vancouver Canucks had a great first-round series win against the Nashville Predators, but let’s face it, it wasn’t perfect. It was just nice for the
The Vancouver Canucks swept the regular season series against the Edmonton Oilers this year. The Canucks outscored the Oilers 21-7 in those four games and 13-3 at 5v5.
They did it. They really did it. For the first time since the 2020 bubble, the Vancouver Canucks are moving on to the second round of the NHL Playoffs, topping the Nashville Predators 1-0 on the road in Game 6.
Like a country band that is nearing the end of their touring career, the Vancouver Canucks really didn’t want to have to go to Nashville again. Alas, in losing Game 5 of Round One of the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs, they’ve punched their ticket all the same, and will be facing off with the Predators in Music City for Game 6 on Friday evening.
Under most circumstances, a bonus trip to Music City would be a good thing. Under most circumstances, an opportunity to watch more Vancouver Canucks hockey would be a great thing.
So the Vancouver Canucks are headed back to Nashville. The question now is, will the Predators be making a return trip to the West Coast for a one-game winner-take-all showdown on Sunday?
That was frustrating. The Vancouver Canucks let a chance to clinch the series slip past them, dropping a 2-1 decision at home against the Nashville Predators to send this to a Game 6.
Game One of the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs was a resounding success for the Vancouver Canucks. Despite falling behind twice, the home team rallied to a 4-2 victory that somehow still felt dominant.
9 years of pent-up energy erupting at last. The Vancouver Canucks came back in dramatic fashion, scoring two quick goals in the third en route to a 4-2 victory in Game 1 against the Nashville Predators.
Vancouver Canucks defenceman Filip Hronek evidently knows perfectly well which teams are heading to the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs — and which ones aren’t.
News broke on Thursday that Noah Hanifin and the Vegas Golden Knights have agreed to terms on an eight-year, $58.8M contract extension that will pay him $7.35M annually. The Calgary Flames traded Hanifin to their Pacific division rival, the Vegas Golden Knights.
The Vancouver Canucks have been a strong team this season and are poised to make a deep playoff run this season. They are currently atop the Pacific Division with 10 games left and their focus will be on winning a Stanley Cup after making a splash at the 2024 Trade Deadline.
Speaking with reporters Friday at his pregame news conference, head coach Rick Tocchet indicated that they’ve decided to shut the blueliner down for the rest of the season.
Vancouver Canucks defenseman Filip Hronek will finally make his debut with the team against the San Jose Sharks.
Hronek was acquired by the Canucks in a somewhat surprising trade deadline deal. The Canucks were not expected to be buyers, but offered up a first-round pick and a second-round pick to the Detroit Red Wings for him.
The Red Wings received a conditional 2023 first-round pick (originally acquired by Vancouver in the Bo Horvat trade with the New York Islanders) and Vancouver’s own 2023 second-round pick in the deal.
Just minutes into the game, Hronek was carrying the puck out of Detroit’s zone, skating through the middle of the ice. Approaching the blueline, he made the regrettable decision to look off to his left, just as Reaves barrelled toward him at full speed.
Detroit drafted Hronek in the second round back in 2016.
