After 56 long years, the Vancouver Canucks are finally Stanley Cup champions, and it wasn’t luck — it was grit, resilience, and pure dominance.

In this historic episode of Locked On Canucks, we break down the unforgettable 2026 Stanley Cup run. From Thatcher Demko's elite goaltending clinic to Dakota Joshua and Evander Kane bringing playoff toughness and edge, this team finally had the backbone fans have been begging for.

But the story begins and ends with Quinn Hughes, who officially enters the conversation as the best defenseman in the NHL — yes, better than Cale Makar. Is it too soon to say he’s the next Bobby Orr? Not after this playoff performance. And guess what? Even Connor McDavid couldn’t stop the magic.

Tap in as we relive the goals, the hits, the saves, and the soul of a team that rewrote Canucks history.
