In 2010-11 , the Sedin twins were the Canucks ’ highest-paid players.

In 2016-17 the third highest paid Canuck was LouiEriksson .

Jay Beagle was a decent teammate and solid faceoff man, but the problem was everything else — he’d have to play hockey.

Mathieu Schneider , Mark Messier , Christian Ehrhoff and Barry Pederson have all been misfires by GM Nonis .

Pat Quinn was hand-picked by Messier to take over as coach.

Tyler Myers , Braden Holtby , Oliver Ekman-Larsson , Tyler Myers and Braden Holtsby all have been good partners for the Canucks .

The Chaos Giraffe was a great defenceman, but his time in Vancouver was a disaster.
