Vancouver Canucks

Former NHL goalie Corey Hirsch and an expert in the field of burnout share ideas to help anyone get out of a funk.

Double retentions won't be possible for players moved after the NHL's holiday trade freeze, which could spur some teams into action.

The Wild sat in the middle tier of Stanley Cup contenders before the trade, but sportsbooks quickly adjusted Minnesota's odds to win.

The three players Vancouver netted for Hughes made positive first impressions in their Canucks debuts on Sunday.

Quinn Hughes is in Minnesota. Stuart Skinner is in Pittsburgh. Kevyn Adams might be on his way out. You know, just your average NHL weekend.

From top picks ready to make the leap to hidden gems ready for a bigger chance, here's each NHL team's fastest-rising prospect.

"This is going to be fun for Quinn," Hughes' agent, Pat Brisson, tells The Athletic. That's not a promise of extending, but it's something.

The post-Quinn Hughes era of Canucks hockey began with a practice on Saturday afternoon in Newark, N.J.

"Vancouver did very well, considering the circumstances," one West team executive said. "Bold move by the Wild. Pressure is on to win now."

"We all play hockey, and we know it might happen. But I'm really happy for everything Minnesota has done for me," Rossi said.

The effects of Quinn Hughes' move to the Wild are going to be felt league-wide. Here are the winners and losers on both sides of the ledger.

Guerin, the Wild GM, had been after a top-tier player and got his guy in Hughes, one of the NHL's top defensemen — at a steep price.

Hughes provides the Wild with a superstar at a premium position, something they have dearly lacked.

In one of the biggest trades in NHL history, Minnesota acquired the Norris Trophy-winning star captain from Vancouver.

From good luck to massive trade hauls, here’s every team’s top Christmas wish.
