I have used the Calgary Flames/Calgary Flames seasons and the Canucks as concept articles/tests. I did want to leave a partial history in the main article, however, and I feel the last five years is a logical breakpoint. If met with general approval, this is a change that I intend to propose at WP:HOCKEY/Team pages format, and to do across all teams. Please offer any comments. Thanks, Resolute 04:19, 1 May 2007 (UTC) - The thing is, the main article itself is not that large at all when it comes to the Vancouver Canucks. Agreed it might be a little bit stuffed, but moving entire sections to whole new pages isnt exactly what we need to be doing. Also reducing the past couple seasons to one lines in the playoffs makes a team's achievement, in this case the Canucks, seem 'meh'. I am going to re-add the past post-seasons for the past five years. Nick8670 10:40 14 May 2007 (UTC)
- Actually that's exactly what wiki strives to do. Have very specific pages so when pages start to get to a certain size you split off portions of the page into new pages. That is how wikipedia grows. This new format for seasons has been somewhat accepted by the WikiProject Hockey as the new way to do team pages. It may not make much sense for some of the newer teams but when you think of the original six you will see why it needs to be done. And we can't just do some team pages. All team pages must be done to maintain consistency. --Djsasso 19:49, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
- Well, we could do it for some, but a complete set of articles looks much more professional, imo. In the case of the Canucks, splitting it off allowed me to also expand more into their PCHL/WHL days, creating a fairly significant list of Vancouver Canucks history. It also did take a pretty good chunk of size off this article.

- Also, I disagree that reducing the playoff result in the team article trivializes the teams accomplishments. I decided that reducing to a single line is preferable after looking at how the Flames and Oilers 5 season list came out. One long playoff run greatly unbalances the look of the chart. I reduced all teams to one line for consistancy. Vancouver Canucks seasons lists the full playoff results, while 2006–07 Vancouver Canucks season describes the playoff run in full detail. The information is there, and has been expanded upon. This article is simply the portal to those articles, as it should be. Resolute 23:36, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Number change the roster shows no number for Rob Davidson (defense)He should be wearing number 18 most likely. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.79.135.75 (talk) 21:20, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
Shouldn't the owner be Aquilini Investment Group instead of Francesco Aquilini? He doesn't own the team himself. Marcus1060 02:45, 15 May 2007 (UTC) I believe you are correct. Francesco is the 'public face' and governor representing the ownership group. Another couple of problems with this section: no mention of the Canuck's original owners (who I believe were from Minnesota); the phrase "shrewd local businessman and philanthropist Arthur Griffiths" is hardly encyclopedic, and seems odd considering Arthur is criticised in the next sentence for over-extending his finances. (not too shrewd.)Thistler (talk) 14:45, 18 August 2008 (UTC) [edit] Logos & Jerseys section I suggest we reformat this section to the one that is on the Anaheim Ducks page (Team Colors & Mascot)..I would suggest if it were presented (/w pics) the same way. There's been at least 6 jersey sets (not counting Alternate/3rd & 4th jerseys) used by the Canucks, and I can provide what changed: Set 1 (70–72) These had "V"s on the arms. Set 2 (72–78) The "V"s were removed and the striping design changed. Set 3/Terrible V's Self-explanitory, used for 6 seasons... Set 4 (??-91/92) The giant V's were moved to the shoulders, and the skate is now the crest. Set 5 (91/92–97) White comes in for home jerseys, and Vs ultimatly removed. The (somewhat) V-like style would be ressurected in 95/96 for the 3rd jersey (the red one). Set 6 (97-Pres) Current jerseys. Minor additions in the 03–04 season added the Stick logo to the shoulders in current team colors. 3rd jersey for this set is the "Salmon" jersey, removed from the stocks this past season in favor of the 72–78 Away jersey. The Home version of the 72–78 jersey was used in the Vintage Program a few seasons ago..
For the logos, I would describe the logos like on the Ducks page as well...

[edit] Messier Leadership Award Should this award really be listed? Other monthly honours have not been included and doing so would be fairly dumb. They aren't major awards. You'd be listing accomplishments like Jason King's Rookie of the Month honour, or Dan Cloutier's award as top defensive player of the month from a few years back. 154.20.184.86 22:46, 20 July 2007 (UTC) - I agree. I would think that monthly awards would be better suited to the season articles, i.e.: 2006–07 Vancouver Canucks season. Resolute 23:53, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Jersey section needs more pics, specifically of what the current jerseys look like. Also, the team mascot needs to be mentioned somewhere. Love each other, or perish. ~Auden 05:19, 10 August 2007 (UTC) - Photos of jerseys are somewhat problematic, since other than fans in the stands with a camera, very few of them pass the fairly-harsh fair use rules. As far as mascots go, I disagree; at the NHL level, almost all team mascots are desperately trivial, and few fans could name them if they tried. (I certainly couldn't name the Bruins' mascot except in so far as it's in a bear costume.) RGTraynor 13:01, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
- Just to add a point about their current jersey - the NHL has implemented new Reebok jerseys to be used by all teams this year; and the Canucks have yet to unveil theirs. Thricecube 19:40, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
My problem with that is two-fold; 1) some NHL team pages name their mascot, so I think they either all should or shouldn't, that is have some similar structure. 2) the team mascots are part of the franchise, and aren't we trying to provide as much info as we can about the organizations? Love each other, or perish. ~Auden 17:19, 10 August 2007 (UTC) - In like fashion, the assistant equipment managers and the head ushers in the arenas are part of the franchises. RGTraynor 19:18, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
I had no idea I was communicating with a child. Love each other, or perish. ~Auden 21:41, 10 August 2007 (UTC) -
- To try and avoid what looks like a looming conflict, I will provide some information. The jerseys are going to essentially need user photos, of which most people tend to not focus their attention on. The mascots are all well covered in their corresponding articles, which is listed here. Not every team has a mascot, and the ones that do, their team articles each have a link to the mascot's page. Kaiser matias 22:33, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
I apologize for my comment, as I do not like to be mocked. My whole deal is this; some team pages have a section for their mascot and jerseys while others have neither. I guess I just think that having similar team pages in terms of structure will provide for an easier read to wikipedians and all who visit the articles. Having a link is great, but honestly I see no problem with mentioning the mascot in the main text. I reviewed all 30 team pages, so you'll probably see my comments all over. I can tell you now that if the page did not mention the team mascot or have a suitable jersey section, then I wrote about it. I apologize in advance if this is going to be a problem for everyone. I will do what I can to edit the articles as well. We're all here to make the pages look the best they possibly can, so I'm just trying not to miss anything. Love each other, or perish. ~Auden 04:24, 11 August 2007 (UTC) - You were not being mocked, and the notion that drawing a comparison angers you into insult isn't a good sign; I strongly recommend you review WP:CIVIL (as well as Wikipedia's other policies, seeing as you are a newcomer). That being said, the hockey Wikiproject long since agreed on the utility of some common elements and on the information we wished each page to have. Mascots have not been among those items. Please feel free to discuss such common elements on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ice Hockey. RGTraynor 16:21, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
And I suggest that you review WP:CIVIL as well, seeing that at the bottom of the "page in a nutshell" paragraph it clearly states "and be careful to avoid offending people unintentionally. ;) I will take my comments to the main ice hockey project page, so thank you for that tip. Love each other, or perish. ~Auden 18:26, 11 August 2007 (UTC) - Sorry if I'm being ignorant by saying this, but I fail to see anything offensive being said in this topic.Thricecube 20:37, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
- I'm at a loss myself, I admit. RGTraynor 21:10, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
Different POV's call for different interpretations. I respect everyone elses POV, so please respect mine. This issue has been settled though, so let's move onto what really matters, which is making the team pages the best they can be. Love each other, or perish. ~Auden 22:09, 11 August 2007 (UTC) [edit] The pre-NHL captains Does anybody have a list of these guys. I'm assuming they belong in the captains section. GoodDay 22:10, 12 October 2007 (UTC) [edit] The 1994 Stanley Cup run This article states that the riot took place after the Canucks lost game 7, caused by 'disappointed' fans who were 'drinking heavily', which is incorrect. The riot took place after Game SIX, which the Canucks WON, and the riot was caused by happy enthusiastic fans who had been drinking heavily and were aggressively confronted by police riot squads after a beat cop got punched in the middle of the crowd. Most of the 'rioters' didn't even know that happened until they got home and watched the news on TV, all they knew during the 'riot' was that they were being attacked by cops in riot gear firing teargas and rubber bullets (one which struck a guy in the head and put him in a coma for a couple weeks). Game 7 took place in New York City, which is why there were not Vancouver fans on the streets of downtown Vancouver to cause any riot out of 'disappointment'. Game Six took place in Vancouver, so all the fans poured out of the arena, and everyone who was watching it on TV headed downtown to celebrate the WIN with fellow fans. Hockey riot out of 'disappointment'.. AS IF! This is pretty shoddy fact checking, folks... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.180.67.209 (talk • contribs) 00:13, November 21, 2007 - Having watched with disappointment as the Canucks lost Game 7, I can tell you that the riot didn't start after game 6, it was indeed game 7. As a simple glance at the relevent article, 1994 Stanley Cup riot states, with several newspaper sources to back the claim, it was after game 7. Now the choice of wording on how to describe the participants of the riot can be seen as questionable, however it does not deter from the fact that the riot was happening while the Canucks were in New York, proving the fact checking has been done properly. Kaiser matias (talk) 08:52, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Charity & Fundraisers Where do you think an article stub detailing charitable involvments of the Canucks would best be suited? AlphaDolphin (talk) 17:43, 14 January 2008 (UTC)AlphaDolphin - In Calgary Flames, I created a section called "Community impact", which includeds some of their charity work. A similar section could work here. Resolute 17:54, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
I've heard that charity work is part of each player's contract. Well, if they're forced to do it as part of their job, then it's not really charity. Probably more just a way to ensure that the Canucks can keep spinning good PR. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.68.70.186 (talk) 19:31, 19 July 2008 (UTC) [edit] Captains and Assistant Captain Mess I noticed that there are frequent edits regarding who is wearing the "A". May I suggest that we instead of slapping a "A" on a player who was wearing one at a random game, we stick to what is listed on the Canucks roster? ThePointblank (talk) 20:28, 20 January 2008 (UTC) [edit] Team awards What does anyone think about adding a section for team awards (ie. Cyclone Taylor Award, Most Exciting Player Award) that lists perhaps the most recent winners and/or the most prolific recipients? Orlandkurtenbach 01:45, 12 March 2008 (UTC) - I agree and I'm gonna make a section about it right now $$Annoyomous24$$ (talk) 00:43, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
- In general we don't place team awards on the main page as they aren't as notable as league awards. What I believe some other teams have done is split off the records to their own page and added team awards to that page. -Djsasso (talk) 16:44, 27 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] IP 75 causing disruptions This IP range (75), is continously editing Ryan Kesler in as Canucks captain. To all who come across his edits, please revert them. GoodDay (talk) 01:05, 20 July 2008 (UTC) [edit] Canucks captain, Luongo?? Wait a sec, the NHL rules clearly state that goaltenders can't be captains. Also, we don't list un-official captains. What's up? GoodDay (talk) 18:54, 30 September 2008 (UTC) - Kaiser matias put that on. You may have to talk to him on his talk page, which I just did 5 minutes ago. By the way, no, Luongo is not (yet) the captain of the Vancouver Canucks. -- K. Annoyomous24[c] 19:03, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
According to the Canucks website, he's to be the captain. But, I put unofficial next to his name, as we've yet to hear what the NHL has to say. GoodDay (talk) 20:06, 30 September 2008 (UTC) - Technically the club can call anyone captain, they just can't slap a C on his jersey and he can't do the talking. -Djsasso (talk) 20:35, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
- I would just make a note under the roster list stating that although Luongo is the captain, he does not wear the 'C' due to NHL rules and as such, the Canucks have 3 assistant captains. ThePointblank (talk) 03:45, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
- The sub text of the word unoffical should be changed since he is "offically" the captain. I can't think of any word that can replace it but I hope someone will. -- K. Annoyomous24[c] 05:04, 1 October 2008 (UTC)
- This is all so stupid. It's a flagrant violation of league rules, and just a ruse to create publicity and make Luongo want to stay with the team. Even as a Canucks fan, I think is whole thing is totally stupid and hope that the league does something to fix this. We shall see. Kaiser matias (talk) 05:11, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Canucks defenseman Willie Mitchell will handle communications with on-ice officials, and defenseman Mattias Ohlund will handle ceremonial faceoffs and other such formalities that come with being captain. I would add a asterisk or something to the roster beside the 'C' and the note to point to the note. ThePointblank (talk) 00:25, 5 October 2008 (UTC) - I agree with the asterisk + note.

[edit] Honoured Members Under "Honored Members", sub-topic "Hall of Famers", there should not be any references to former NHL players Andy Bathgate, Johnny Bower, Tony Esposito, Allan Stanley and Gump Worsley. The above players were once members of the old Vancouver Canucks of the defunct semi-pro league WHL, which has no affiliation to the present day NHL Vancouver Canucks. Those players were all property of the Toronto Maple Leafs, New York Rangers, Chicago Black Hawks and Pitsburgh Penguins which had loaned the players to the former WHL team. This particular wikipedia regarding the Vancouver Canucks refers ONLY to the NHL team. To represent these players as "honored members" of the Vancouver Canucks would do readers a disservice with inaccurate information. Nowhere in this topic does it pertains in whole or in part to the old Vancouver Canucks of the WHL. KeroDoe 17:38, 05 December 2008 (UTC) - Actually that is incorrect, the Vancouver Canucks are the same team. The team switched leagues, if you will notice at the top of the page and in the history section this is talked about. -Djsasso (talk) 01:40, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
-
- Actually, it is not the same team. The official starting date for the NHL Vancouver Canucks is 1970/71 Season. Tom Scallen of Medicor was granted an expansion team and paid the fee. However, since the WHL Vancouver Canucks had exclusive rights for professional hockey in Vancouver and playing rights in the Pacific Coliseum, Scallen purchased the team for purposes of obtaining those rights and promptly folded the team. Some players who had been under contract by the WHL Canucks had their contracts nullified. Some were signed by the NHL Canucks, others such as Andy Bathgate and Rene Robert were reverted back to their original NHL teams. Technically and legally, the WHL Canucks and NHL Canucks are not the same team. KeroDoe (talk)18:38 05 December, 2008 (UTC)
- This has actually been debated many times by many people so I won't get into it very much, but the Canucks themselves claim the history of the other teams and state their founding date as 1945. The fact that they moved a number of the players over goes to show that it was a continuation of the team. Yes, they did let a number of players go (and a number had to switch teams because of NHL rights issues), but they kept a large number, kept the same management, kept the same personnel etc etc. -Djsasso (talk) 02:50, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- The NHL Canucks "claim" the history of the team nickname, not to be confused with actual origins of the current team. The movement of players from WHL to NHL only reflects to the rights of those players who were under contract to the WHL team. It does not suggest these player were "continuing" their services. Under the NHLPA, they were signed as free agents for the 1970/71 season. The management you speak of were not the same. The NHL Canucks first GM, Bud Poile, was the GM of the Philadelphia Flyers in 1969/70. 1st Coach Hal Laycoe in 1969/70 was coach of the Los Angeles Kings. In fact, the only "management" holdover was Coleman E Hall but that was only a Board of Director position. In summary, it is entirely a brand new team. When Scallen purchased the WHL Canucks, it was purely for economic and financial rights which included the right to use the team name "Canucks". One could not confused the old AHL Cleveland Barons for the NHL version. Same as with the current owners of the AHL Houston Aeros who had to purchase the rights to use the nickname "Aeros" which was previously used in the WHA. -KeroDoe {talk} 19:29, 5 December 2008 {UTC}
- Sorry, but as DJ says, this has long been the consensus, and there was complete continuity of ownership ... the same way there was for the Oilers, Jets, Whalers and Nordiques, which likewise had a turnover of players and other management in jumping leagues, and in the same fashion as in a number of other sports. And, by the bye, have a couple of players cited as "Honoured Members" of their teams while their NHL rights were held by the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Boston Bruins, for example. We appreciate that you have an opinion on the matter - however much you curiously discount or dismiss elements contradicting your POV, such as common ownership, the several players who continued from 1970 to 1971, the franchise's own take on the matter and the several books that support the position. Should you garner enough support for a change in consensus, a change in the article would be appropriate. RGTraynor 05:17, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- The situation with the WHA teams is that it was a merger, thus the continuation of those franchises. The several players who "continued" were already property of the applicants when they purchased the AHL Rochester Americans back in 1968. Denny Boyd in his book did not state that the club was merely an extension of the WHL club. I can understand the confusion. The Vancouver Canucks themselves do not claim the same, only the origins of the team nickname. By yours and DJ definition, then the Buffalo Sabres was originally founded in 1936 since the Seymour Knox III owned the AHL Buffalo Bisons before being granted an NHL franchise. -KeroDoe {talk} 3:29, 6 December 2008 {UTC}
- I think the big confusion for most people is the difference between team and franchise, people use the words interchangeably when they do not mean the same thing. -Djsasso (talk) 13:05, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- The four WHA organizations and the Montreal Canadiens organization were not founded when the teams joined the NHL, period. If you date one from when the NHL franchise was granted, you date them all. That being said, the way this is handled in other sports is the way we currently do it. The Cleveland Browns article dates from 1946, when the original AAFC team was founded. All the American Football League team articles (the Patriots, Chargers, Dolphins, Jets, Raiders, Chiefs, Broncos etc) date from 1959, when the AFL was founded. The Cincinnati Reds article dates from 1882 and the original American Association, eight years before the founding of the National League, as do the Pittsburgh Pirates, Los Angeles Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals articles. The Detroit Pistons article dates from 1941, when the original Fort Wayne Zollner Pistons started in the National Basketball League. Etc, etc, etc.
- Beyond that, the WHA teams joining the NHL was certainly not a merger, not in any way, shape or form: the NHL insisted that they join as "expansion teams." RGTraynor 05:30, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Should we protect this article until the Vancouver Canucks turn it around? Come on, if one of the Canucks see all the stuff that IP adresses have put, they will be mad.

This article had once been showcased... October 2007..... on the portal. The portal has been changed to rotate content automatically, and as it had once been on the portal, possibly should return even though it is a B class article not GA, A, or FA. I didn't re-add the article, as the talk page template for the portal was not on the article talk page. And more importantly the article is tagged with This article has multiple issues. Could someone more familiar with the article fix the errors mentioned in the template, so the article can be re-situated into the portal proper, if so desired.
