They were 5th in the Western Pacific standings with a record of 38-30-14 during the regular season. However, as the Canucks get read to take on the 2025-2026 season, there are rumors about one of their key players.<\/p><p>Their captain, Quinn Hughes, has merely two years left in his contract. The Canucks had their best years but they are still unable to win the Stanley Cup trophy. They are among the two oldest teams to have never won a Stanley Cup alongside the Buffalo Sabres.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\"If Quinn Hughes is going to sign a contract, he can almost write it himself&hellip;he holds the cards here\"<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RobTheHockeyGuy?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@RobTheHockeyGuy<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/patersonjeff?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@patersonjeff<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/justBlakePrice?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@justBlakePrice<\/a> <br><br>Presented by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bet365ca?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@bet365ca<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NeverOrdinary?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#NeverOrdinary<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/bet365?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#bet365<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Y7dV6rjSyh\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/Y7dV6rjSyh<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Sekeres and Price (@sekeresandprice) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/sekeresandprice\/status\/1951347691298103631?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>August 1, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>However, as the season draws close <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhltraderumor.com\/the-unthinkable-blockbuster-why-the-vancouver-canucks-might-be-forced-to-trade-quinn-hughes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>experts are reasoning that Hughes would not want to continue with the Sabres<\/a>. The most probable option for Quinn Hughes are the New Jersey Devils, where he will join his brothers, Jack and Luke.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Quinn Hughes Expected to Leave Vancouver Canucks After His Current Contract<\/h2><p>Quinn Hughes is a star prospect in the NHL since his rookie days. He was 7th overall pick in the 2018 NHL Draft when the Vancouver Canucks drafted him. He was nominated for the Calder Memorial Trophy in 2020. Since then, he has made name for himself in NHL defence.<\/p><p>He was awarded the James Norris Memorial Trophy in 2024 as the best defence man. He is at the peak of his game currently. Hughes would want to spend his time and efforts on a team which can relay results.

He may be the best but he is not enough alone to win the Stanley Cup for the Vancouver Canucks.<\/p><p>If the Vancouver Canucks fail to make the cut with one more mediocre season, they will find it incredibly difficult to keep him. For Hughes, a contract with the Devils is important both personally and professionally. His brothers are there for a reason.<\/p><p>The New Jersey Devils are on a rise recently. The team is also stacking up younger talents in order to challenge the Stanley Cup championship. Their intentions are clear- they are here to win. In comparison to them, the Canucks are rather laid back.

I got into online journalism a couple of years ago. I used to be an intern for a website managing their Formula 1 content and then I served an entire year as a contractual writer. For me, online journalism was not something I expected. I am a Mechanical Engineer aiming to join Formula 1. At the same time, I am a poet, writer and my university\\'s Literary Club Lead. One day the dots connected together and I realised I could use my writing skills to convey my passion for Motorsports. The biggest aspects I love about my role are- Scuderia Ferrari and Sebastian Vettel. When I am not fawning over them I like to convey my opinions to the public, in a manner which helps them gain a new point of view. I love helping people explore new ideas about Motorsports and obviously get recognised as a writer all over the world. Message to Readers: I promise you one day you\\'ll see me managing operations on track with a Formula 1 team ; ) \u00a0","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/rohan-singh-9830ba261"],"url":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/author\/rohan\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623979"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/31"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=623979"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623979\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":624043,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/623979\/revisions\/624043"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/624040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=623979"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=623979"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=623979"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
