The Vancouver Canucks have offically been eliminated from playoff contention. Vancouver will not qualify for the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs, as the Minnesota Wild defeated the San Jose Sharks 8-7 in overtime on Wednesday. While the Canucks can still collect 93 points, both the Wild and the St. Louis Blues have more regulation wins, which means they have the tie-breaker over Vancouver.

After making the post-season in 2024, the Canucks will miss the playoffs for the fourth time in the last five season. Vancouver has only qualified for the Stanley Cup Playoffs twice in the previous ten seasons, with the other occasion being back in 2020. In 78 games this season, the Canucks are 36-29-13, and have collected 85 points.
With four games left in the season, the focus shifts to 2025-26 as players compete for spots on the roster. Vancouver currently has multiple players called up from the AHL who are competing for spots next season, including Aatu Räty, Victor Mancini, and Linus Karlsson. All three are also eligable for the 2025 Calder Cup Playoffs and are set to play big roles for the Abbotsford Canucks once returned to the AHL.
There will also be a large focus among the fan base on where the Canucks will finish in this year's draft lottery. Vancouver is projected to finish with the 15th overall pick and is currently ineligible to move up to first overall. Based on point totals around the league, the Canucks will most likely won't move up or down, and head into the 2025 NHL Entry Draft with a top-15 pick.
Vancouver wraps up their mini two-game road trip with a game on Thursday against the Colorado Avalanche. The Canucks have had the Avalanche's number this season, going 2-0 against them so far this season. Puck drop is scheduled for 6:00 pm PT from Ball Arena.
