Less than 2 weeks after being traded in the same deal, both Anthon Beauvillier and Bo Horvat scored against their former teams in the Canucks 6-5 victory over the Islanders. Brock Boeser led the way with 4 points while Elias Pettersson chipped in 3 points.

The Canucks were defeated 4-3 by the New York Rangers.  Conor Garland, Vasily Podkolzin, and Elias Pettersson scored for the Canucks.  Both Quinn Hughes and Luke Schenn were injured during the game; Hughes came back to play but Schenn did not.

Elias Pettersson, Quinn Hughes, JT Miller, and Oliver Ekman-Larsson will all serve as alternate captains for the remainder of the season.  Who should be the captain of the team starting next season?

The Canucks lost 5-4 in overtime to the New Jersey Devils in both teams' first game out of the All-Star Break.  Anthony Beauvillier - recently acquired from the New York Islanders in the trade for Bo Horvat - made his Canucks debut.

Bo Horvat signs a massive extension with the Islanders, the Canucks roll out new lines with all of the new players, Pettersson and Hughes are named alternate captains, and I bring in Coach Patrick from my sponsor Perform and Transform Personal Training and Weight Loss to say hello.

Ilya Mikheyev had successful knee surgery, the latest details of Bo Horvat's contract offer come out, and Thatcher Demko states that he hasn't requested a trade.  As well, we give away a pair of Canucks tickets in honour of me passing the 9,700 subscriber mark on YouTube.

Bo Horvat will still represent the Pacific Division at this weekend's All-Star Game while wearing Islanders colours.  And we talk about Rick Tocchet and our first impressions of him.

Now that we've had over a day to digest the Bo Horvat trade, what are your feelings towards it?  As I've mentioned all along, I like the return considering Horvat could end up being a rental for the Islanders.

I brought in Kim (IslesGirl3) to help me break down the massive Bo Horvat trade to the New York Islanders. The Canucks traded Bo Horvat to the Islanders for forward Anthony Beauvillier, prospect Aatu Raty, and a protected 2023 1st round draft pick.

After Friday's night's win over the Columbus Blue Jackets, the Canucks announced that forward Ilya Mikheyev will miss the remainder of the season as he undergoes surgery to repair a torn ACL.
