Vancouver' NHL franchise, entered the league in 1970. They have never won a Stanley Cup. A previous Vancouver team, the Vancouver Millionaires, won the Cup in 1915 (it's a reach, but that's all there is).

They play at "GM Place". Famous for a seemingly endless succession of ugly uniform designs, the newest "orca" logo is far less offensive than its predecessors.

The Canucks won the 2010-11 President's Trophy. It's their first such trophy.

Team colours : Blue, green, silver, white

Retired Numbers:

Wayne Maki's and Luc Bourdon's numbers were withdrawn from circulation following their early deaths from brain cancer (1974) and a motorcycle accident (2008), respectively.

Wayne Gretzky scored his first NHL goal against the Canucks on October 14, 1979. Goaltender Glen Hanlon had the dubious honour of surrendering that marker.
