Vancouver Canuck GM Mike Gillis plans to sit on the sidelines for the time being as the NHL investigates the Toronto Maple Leafs for possibly tampering with the Sedin twins.

Goaltender Cory Schneider will be given a chance to make the Vancouver Canucks this fall, which could result in recent signing Andrew Raycroft playing for the AHL Manitoba Moose, general manager Mike Gillis said Tuesday.

Swedish summer : Mats Sundin is done... maybe. And how close did the Canucks come to losing the Sedin twins? Sean McCormick Self-interest : Show me a locker room with a cancer in it, and I'll show you an attribute they all have in common.

I haven't written anything about the Canucks for a while, so here are a few thoughts on the draft, recent free agency activity and the rest of the summer: In the first round of the draft, the Canucks selected Jordan Schroeder , a 5'8" American forward from the University of Minnesota.

Based on how Day 1 of free agency unfolded, it shouldn't be any surprise that Vancouver Canucks GM Mike Gillis is talking seriously about trying to bring 38-year-old Mats Sundin back for another season.

Swedish right wing Mikael Samuelsson is leaving one Western Conference team heavy on his countrymen to join another.

Mike Gillis went fishing, but a big one got away Wednesday. While the Vancouver Canucks general manager will keep dropping a line to see if unrestricted free agent centre Mats Sundin can be lured back at a reasonable salary, he won't be trolling for Marian Gaborik.

The window is closing on Mike Gillis to land the Sedin twins before they hit the unrestricted free agent market in less than a week.

Barry - the agent for unrestricted free agents Henrik and Daniel Sedin - could not bridge a considerable gap in contract negotiations late Friday night at the entry draft in Montreal.

Teams have the future in their hands on draft day. A struggling NHL club can potentially selected a franchise player, a dramatic trade could be struck and there is always the potential for disaster as no pick is ever really a sure thing.

Marian Gaborik has invested in Vancouver but he'll have to wait until July 1 to find out if the Canucks will invest in him.

Summer has officially arrived and in Canada that can mean only one thing: Hockey remains front and centre.

A Swedish newspaper is reporting that Sweden's captain Mats Sundin will not compete for his country in the Vancouver Olympic Winter Games.

It's a little bit terrifying for a Vancouver Canuck fan when you look at the list of free agents who are slated to come available to the rest of the NHL on July 1. Granted there's still a couple of weeks to go before the free-for-all begins but the list of available Vancouver players right now looks pretty significant, particularly if they should ...

A two-for-one deal it is not. The Los Angeles correspondent of Swedish newspaper Expressen reported Thursday that Daniel and Henrik Sedin both want 12-year, $63 million contracts to stay with the Vancouver Canucks.

Many young players enter the NHL and think only about scoring goals. They feel that's the way to get noticed.
