Looking Back At Carson Soucy’s Time As A Member Of The Vancouver Canucks

The 2025 NHL Trade Deadline has passed, and in a somewhat surprising turn of events, the Vancouver Canucks only traded one player in the week leading up to it.

The 2025 NHL Trade Deadline has come and gone, and with it came many interesting moves. Central Division teams in particular loaded up on offensive firepower and shot-blocking defenders.

Looking Back At Last Year’s Thrilling Canucks And Phil Kessel Saga

On February 12, 2024, the Vancouver Canucks had their fans on the edges of their seats as they brought one of the NHL’s most notable thrills to Vancouver — 36-year-old Phil Kessel. The near-1000 point forward had almost joined the Canucks on their playoff run last season, but ended up not doing so after contract negotiations fell apart. He remained unsigned by last year’s Trade Deadline.

Two Former Canucks Defensemen Moved Ahead Of NHL Trade Deadline

Two former Vancouver Canucks defensemen were traded on Wednesday afternoon, as Vincent Desharnais and Luke Schenn were moved before the March 7 Trade Deadline.

Schenn will appear to replace Desharnais in Pittsburgh, as he and Tommy Novak were traded from the Nashville Predators to the Penguins in exchange for Michael Bunting.
