Vancouver Canucks captain Henrik Sedin accepts the Clarence S. Campbell Bowl on behalf of the team as the 2011 Western Conference playoff champions.
The Vancouver Canucks are a franchise team in the National Hockey League (NHL). As of 9 October 2020[update], 61 goaltenders and 561 skaters (forwards and defencemen) have appeared in at least one regular-season and/or playoff game with the Canucks since the team joined the NHL in the inaugural 1970–71 season. The 621 all-time members of the Canucks are listed below, with statistics complete through the end of the 2019–20 NHL season. It includes players that have played at least one regular season or playoff game for the Vancouver Canucks since the franchise was established in 1970.
The "Seasons" column lists the first year of the season of the player's first game and the last year of the season of the player's last game. For example, a player who played one game in the 2000–01 NHL season would be listed as playing with the team from 2000–2001, regardless of what calendar year the game occurred within.
There have been 13 Canucks players who have served as the captain. The franchise's first captain was Orland Kurtenbach, who captained the team until his retirement in 1974.[1] The longest-tenured Canucks captain was Stan Smyl, who was appointed for eight seasons. Smyl and Henrik Sedin are the only Canucks captains to have spent their entire NHL playing career with the team.[2] Trevor Linden, who captained from 1990 to 1997, played 16 seasons with the Canucks, a franchise high.[3] Swede Markus Naslund, who captained for seven seasons[a], was the first non-Canadian to have captained the Canucks. Though goaltenders are not permitted to act as captains during games, Roberto Luongo served as the captain from 2008 to 2010, but because of the NHL rule against goaltender captains, the League did not allow Luongo to serve as captain on-ice.[4][5] In his place, Willie Mitchell was responsible for dealing with officials during games, while Henrik Sedin was responsible for ceremonial faceoffs and other ceremonial duties.[5] Luongo was not permitted to wear the "C" on his jersey, but it was incorporated into the artwork on the front of his mask.[6] The current captain of the Vancouver Canucks is Quinn Hughes, who became captain beginning in the 2023–24 NHL season.
