The Vancouver Canucks will be without two of their biggest names in today’s afternoon matchup against the Seattle Kraken. After neither player was seen at practice yesterday, Canucks Head Coach Rick Tocchet confirmed that both Elias Pettersson and Quinn Hughes would not be playing today.

Not the best news coming out of the holidays for the Vancouver Canucks. When speaking to the media on Friday, head coach Rick Tocchet revealed that forward Elias Pettersson and captain Quinn Hughes are doubtful to play in the team’s first game coming out of the holiday break,

The Vancouver Canucks have had a fine start to the 2024-25 season. But in saying this, it hasn’t been the sort of start they wanted. The Canucks won the Pacific Division in 2023-24, but are fifth place at this time in 2024-25.

Whatever Elias Pettersson hurt during Monday’s 4-3 Vancouver Canucks win over the San Jose Sharks and whatever Quinn Hughes hurt during Saturday’s 5-4 loss to the Ottawa Senators are apparently lingering.

The Vancouver Canucks will face the Seattle Kraken without two of their key players, Quinn Hughes and Elias Pettersson, as announced by head coach Rick Tocchet.

Captain Quinn Hughes and centre Elias Pettersson both were out of the Vancouver Canucks' lineup against the Seattle Kraken on Saturday afternoon.

The Vancouver Canucks (17-10-7) return from the holiday break by welcoming the Seattle Kraken (15-19-2) to Rogers Arena. This will be the first of four meetings in 2024-25 between these two Pacific Division rivals,
