Both Quinn Hughes and Elias Pettersson are the point leaders for their position and Thatcher Demko is a favorite to win the Vezina.

Should the Vancouver Canucks be considered favorites to win the Stanley Cup this NHL Hockey Season?
Clearly missing a top 4 defenseman.
#1d Hughes
#2d hronek
#3d ???
#4d Cole
#5d Myers
#6d Carson S and the rest or lower.
Get a #3 d or this team won’t survive 4 plus game absences of Hughes or hronek.
interesting thoughts. I'm a canucks fan and I've been revelling in their early season success. I think they have enough depth to get them through the injury prone parts of the season. One concern i'd have what's gonna happen when they play a well seasoned playoff team like the golden knights? Canucks haven't have a deep playoff run since like what, 2011? I'm very excited nonetheless.
no offense but can't take you seriously when you pronounce boeser as "boser"
How about waiting until they play more of the top teams and see how they do.They've been great against lower tier teams but have struggled a bit against top tier teams. They've had one of the easiest schedules so far this season.
Boeser is pronounced like Besser, but other than that this video really nails it. I realize we're still only 15 games into the season, but to this point Quinn Hughes is putting up Bobby Orr like numbers. It's wild! Not everybody was on board with him being named Captain, but he was my pick and I'm happy to be proven right.
Haven’t proven anything in the playoffs so no you can’t just magically become a contender and win it all in the same season no real playoff experience
They're a very good team, and they have legitimate star players. But they are also on one of the biggest PDO Benders of all time right now haha – the offensive luck will come back down to earth a little this month. But again, still a playoff team for sure
Let's see what happens during this time when we have Juulsen and Hirose on our D pairings 🙁
As a nucks fan myself there are 2 holes on this team.
1: penalty kill is middle of the pack which isn't terrible by any means but they also have trouble keeping out of the box
2: bottom pairing deffence. They need 1-2 more good deffence men. Myers is an absolute bozo, mark freidman and Ian Cole are fine but you would want someone better in those positions.
I honestly think they need 1 more year
I think one third to one half of all NHL teams can do what they are doing. it's Tocchet. He connects with them in a positive way.
Bowser? Wtf
lol how is everyone wrong? look at boston last year. enough said.
Plan the parade
It takes 4 key ingredients to win the Cup, the Canucks look to have them all this year, First and most importantly, you need outstanding, Vezina calibre goaltending, Demko, …Next, A Norris candidate big minute defence man, Hughes …..reliable scoring, Millar , Petterson, Boeser and finally and the most elusive ingredient, a bottom half of the roster that plays over their heads on a long hard playoff run . The Canucks have 7 guys on the bottom of the half the roster that have contracts running out this year 😊, …..it is the perfect setup making the Canucks a good bet
We have one major hole and it’s the human pylon that is Tyler myers
Did this mf just say “Boser”?
You are one goofy SOB 😂
We’re still way to shallow on defence to do any damage in the playoffs. Also, garland and beavillier need to be swapped for a player or 2 with some size and grit. They wont do much in the playoffs with what they got and their future still doesn’t look great as far as prospects and cap room.
Pretenders.
NO. TORONTO IS BRINGING THE CUP HOME. We whooped them 5-2 which shows they're regressing
Ok settle down – a Canucks fan
They can’t beat good teams. Look at who they win against. Have they played Vegas or Colorado? Can’t beat the leafs or Lightning
The Canucks are getting alot of luck they still need some toughness
