Locked On Canucks - Daily Podcast On The Vancouver Canucks

In today's Locked On Canucks, we're asking one of the biggest questions facing two of Canada's most heated rivals:

For Vancouver, the future revolves around players like Marco Rossi, Zeev Buium, Tom Willander, Braeden Cootes and Jonathan Lekkerimäki, while Calgary has been building around its own collection of young players and prospects.

It's who gets back to being a legitimate playoff team first?

In today's Locked On Canucks, we're diving into one of the most fascinating behind-the-scenes stories to come out of the 2026 NHL Draft: the Vancouver Canucks and Ottawa Senators reportedly came surprisingly close to making a draft-day trade.

Vancouver was reportedly trying to move up from No. 33 and No. 41, offering both picks to Ottawa in an attempt to acquire No. 25, with another pick coming back to Vancouver.

So what was Vancouver trying to accomplish?

We'll break down the trade that almost happened, what Vancouver was willing to give up, why Ottawa ultimately said no, and what it tells us about the Canucks' approach to rebuilding through the draft.

The Canucks are in the middle of a rebuild, and draft capital matters more than ever. This is a fascinating glimpse into how aggressive Vancouver was willing to be—and just how close the organization may have been to changing the entire complexion of its draft.

In today's Locked On Canucks episode, we're looking at one of the most intriguing free agents still available and asking a simple question:

Should the Vancouver Canucks be targeting Eeli Tolvanen?

Tolvanen remains unsigned after completing his two-year contract with the Seattle Kraken, and after putting up 36 points in 78 games last season, the 27-year-old winger could be one of the most interesting value additions still sitting on the market.

The Finnish winger brings exactly the type of elements Vancouver could use: offensive ability, a proven NHL shot, versatility on the wing, and a willingness to play a physical game. He also finished second among Seattle forwards in hits last season, showing that his game isn't simply about scoring.

So why is Tolvanen still available?

We'll discuss whether there's an opportunity for the Canucks to take advantage of the market and potentially sign a player who could provide legitimate middle-six scoring without breaking the bank.

Could Tolvanen fit alongside Vancouver's top players? Could he become a power-play weapon? And could the Canucks eventually turn a short-term signing into a trade-deadline asset if the season doesn't go according to plan?

👇 IN THIS VIDEO:

✔ Why Eeli Tolvanen remains one of the best UFAs available

📈 KEY SEARCH TERMS:

Eeli Tolvanen

The Canucks don't necessarily need another superstar. They need smart additions that make the roster deeper, harder to play against, and more dangerous offensively.

Eeli Tolvanen might check a lot of those boxes.

It's something that most Vancouver Canucks fans believe won't happen.

But, is Elias Pettersson finally about to prove everybody wrong?

On the latest episode of Locked On Canucks, Beggsy and Bhawan talk about the one area of Pettersson's game that has quietly improved over the past couple of seasons. And no, we're not talking about shot blocks.

The boys also look at the backup goalie battle, a sneaky Canucks trade candidate, and a former Canucks prospect who's finally about to become a full-time NHLer.

In today's Locked On Canucks episode, we're discussing what may be the biggest boom-or-bust storyline surrounding the Vancouver Canucks heading into the new season:

Is Filip Chytil the most volatile player in the entire NHL?

When healthy, Chytil has shown he can be a dynamic, play-driving center with top-six talent. His speed, skill, and ability to create offense make him one of Vancouver's most exciting players. But after multiple concussions throughout his career, every shift comes with uncertainty. His lengthy concussion history has already cost him significant time over the past several seasons, making his availability one of the biggest questions facing the Canucks.

We'll explore whether Chytil represents the widest range of outcomes in the league. Could he stay healthy and score 60-plus points while becoming a difference-maker down the middle? Or does his concussion history make him one hit away from another extended absence? That's the difficult reality the Canucks have to navigate.

👇 IN THIS VIDEO:

✔ Is Filip Chytil the NHL's biggest X-factor?

📈 KEY SEARCH TERMS:

Vancouver Canucks

Few players in the NHL have a wider range of outcomes than Filip Chytil. His talent has never really been the question—his ability to stay healthy has. If Chytil can finally put together a full season, he could become one of the biggest steals in the league. If injuries strike again, the Canucks will once again be forced to adjust on the fly.

💬 Let us know:

Do you think Filip Chytil is the NHL's most volatile player? And what would you consider a successful season for him if he stays healthy?

The Vancouver Canucks may have found one of the biggest steals of the 2026 NHL Draft. Second-round pick Brooks Rogowski has been generating plenty of buzz since being selected 33rd overall, and it's easy to see why.

Standing at a towering 6-foot-7 and over 230 pounds, Rogowski isn't just a physical specimen—he's showing surprising mobility, a strong two-way game, and the kind of hockey IQ that has scouts believing there's far more offensive upside to unlock.

On today's episode of Locked On Canucks, we break down why Rogowski has quickly become one of Vancouver's most intriguing prospects.

We discuss what stood out during development camp, why the Canucks prioritized his combination of size, skating, and character, and whether he could eventually become the big matchup center this organization has been searching for.

We'll also compare his ceiling, talk about his timeline to the NHL, and explain why fans should be excited about his long-term development.

Could Brooks Rogowski become one of the defining picks of the Canucks' new era?

As the Vancouver Canucks enter a new universe, Beggsy and Bhawan can't help but think about the old one.

Even though Elias Pettersson was drafted fifth overall and once looked like a steal, where would he go in a 2017 re-draft?

On the latest episode of Locked On Canucks, Beggsy and Bhawan tackle that, along with Brendan Gallagher's ceiling amidst an outpouring of love from Montreal. They also talk about top Canucks takeaways from the World Junior Summer Showcase, along with who may be there come December.
