Vancouver Canucks with 100-point seasons – Hockey Writers – Canucks History

The Vancouver Canucks don’t have a storied history of high-scoring players. But what they don’t have are some of the best things, including fan favorites that have removed jerseys from the rafters at Rogers Arena.

Here’s a look at seven players who reached the 100-point milestone while playing in Vancouver.

Pavel Bure

2-Time Member of the Canucks-Point Club

Recorded 110 points (60 goals, 50 assists) in 83 games in 1992-93.
Recorded 107 points (60 goals, 47 assists) in 76 games in 1993-94.

Pavel Bure became the first player to score 100 points in a Canucks jersey, doing so in 1992-93, his second season in the NHL. He finished with 110 points in 83 games, but scored his 100th point on April 1, 1993, against the Tampa Bay Lightning. It was also his 56th goal of the season, just shy of Pat Jablonski. His 110 points are still second only to Henrik Sedin’s 112 points in 2009-10.

Bure’s second entry into the 100-point club came in the 1993-94 season when he scored 107 points in 76 games and helped the Canucks reach the Stanley Cup Final. This time, his 100th came on March 28, 1994, against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Part of a two-point effort, his 54th goal brought him to 99 points and his 46th assist in the overtime win over Murray Craven brought him to 100.

After those 100-point seasons, Bure couldn’t approach the century mark again, except for his final campaign in Vancouver when he recorded 90 points in 82 games. He was traded to the Florida Panthers after the 1997-98 season and ended up scoring 94 and 92 points in the 1999-00 and 2000-01 seasons respectively, but never topped 100 again. He finished his career with the New York Rangers at the age of 31.

He ranks seventh on the Canucks’ all-time scoring list with 478 points (254 goals, 224 assists) in 428 games, and his number 10 jersey was retired on November 2, 2013.

Alex Mogilny

Member of the Canucks 100-Point Club

Recorded 107 points (55 goals, 52 assists) in 79 games in 1995-96.

No one from the Canucks was able to score 100 points in 1994-95, but after arriving from the Buffalo Sabers during the offseason, Alex Mogilny became the second player to score 100 points in the orange and black with 107 points. It was also his second entry into the team as he recorded 127 points with the Sabers back in 1992-93 when he scored 76 goals.

Mogilny scored his 100th point on March 25, 1996, against the Los Angeles Kings when he assisted on Cliff Ronning’s 21st of the season. The Canucks finished with two points in that game, beating Amakhosi 4-1. After that season, he played 233 more games with the Canucks, but the closest he got to triple digits was 73 points during the 1996-97 campaign. He was traded to the New Jersey Devils in 1999-00 and finished his career in Vancouver with 139 goals and 308 points in 312 games.

Markus Naslund

Member of the Canucks 100-Point Club

Recorded 104 points (48 goals, 56 assists) in 82 games in 2002-03.

The first Swede in Canucks history to hit the 100-point mark, former captain Markus Naslund achieved the feat in 2002-03 with the West Coast Express. Playing alongside Todd Bertuzzi (who was three points away from joining him with 97) and Brendan Morrison, the trio was nearly unstoppable combining for 119 goals and 272 points.

Naslund used his dangerous wrist shot to score a career-high 48 goals — half of them on the right hash marks — to finish second to Milan Hejduk, who had 50. He was also runner-up for the Hart Trophy and the Art Ross Trophy after Peter Forsberg. Like everyone else on the roster except Bure, Naslund was unable to hit 100 points again, the closest being 84 in 2003-04.

Still, Naslund was one of the Canucks’ all-time stars as he sits third on the all-time scoring list with 756 points. His No. 19 jersey was retired on Dec. 11, 2010.

Henrik Sedin

Member of the Canucks 100-Point Club

Recorded 112 points (29 goals, 83 assists) in 82 games in 2009-10.

Currently the all-time leader with 1,070 points, Henrik Sedin also holds the record for points in a season with 112. He accomplished that during the 2009-10 season when he had to play 19 games without regular teammate Daniel Sedin. Despite his trigger, he became a prolific scorer and scored a career-high 29 goals, seven more than his career high of 22 points. Traditionally the man with 830 assists, he carried the Canucks on his back that season and won. both the Art Ross Trophy and the Hart Trophy before Alex Ovechkin.

It was a campaign for the ages and produced one of the most memorable games in Canucks history, even though it was the last game of the season. Battling Ovechkin and Crosby in the scoring race, Henrik tallied four assists against the Calgary Flames on April 10, 2010, including a beauty tip to his brother that ended up being the game-winning goal. Daniel went between the legs and covered Miikka Kiprusoff for a hat trick. The Canucks won 7-3 and the two power forwards scored a combined eight points.

Henrik went on to play 1,330 games in a Canucks uniform, scoring 240 goals and 1,070 points along the way. He was unable to hit 100 points again, but came close in 2010-11 with 94 points. His No. 33 jersey was retired on Feb. 12, 2020, and was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in November 2022. He is currently part of the coaching staff in Vancouver, guiding the next generation of Canucks.

Daniel Sedin

Member of the Canucks 100-Point Club

Recorded 104 points (41 goals, 63 assists) in 82 games in 2010-11.

Speaking of Daniel Sedin, he couldn’t let his brother lift him up, so the next season, he set his own 100 points with 104 points, winning the Art Ross Trophy and the Lester B Pearson Award in the process. He couldn’t defend Hart, so I think Henrik still has that on him, but he still held a career high 41 goals and got his name on two trophies.

Daniel is second behind Henrik on the all-time scoring list with 1,041 and had his number 22 jersey retired alongside Henrik’s on February 12, 2020. He was also inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2022 and worked with Henrik in coaching. they work in the same role as their brother.

Member of the Canucks 100-Point Club

Recorded 102 points (39 goals, 63 assists) in 80 games in 2022-23.

Elias Pettersson, the fourth Swede to enter the 100-point club, did it most recently in 2022-23 when he scored 39 goals and 102 points. He almost repeated last season, but was 13 points short of 89 points. Since being drafted fifth overall in 2017, the slick center/winger has sent Canucks fans into a frenzy with 170 goals and 412 points in 407 games and could reach 500 points with another impressive season in 2024-25.

Pettersson recently signed a long-term contract that should keep him in Vancouver through the 2031-32 season. At 25 years old, he is already 11th on the all-time scoring list and will pass Bo Horvat for 10th in nearly a month this season. If all goes well, we could see him not only join Bure in the two-man club but overtake him and finish 2024-25 in seventh place.

JT Miller

Member of the Canucks 100-Point Club

Recorded 103 points (37 goals, 66 assists) in 81 games in 2023-24.

The latest member of the 100-point club, JT Miller has been a revelation since joining the Canucks from the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2019. He was one point shy of 100 in 2021-22 but reached the conference in 2023-24 with 103 points. on the strength of a career-high 37 goals. Arguably the Canucks best and most consistent player last season, he scored 30 goals for the third straight season and now has 143 goals and 402 points in Orca.

Like Pettersson, Miller is climbing the Canucks’ points leaderboard and now sits 14th, five behind Don Lever and 19 from passing former teammate Bo Horvat for a top-10 finish. With another 100-point season, he will also be flirting with passing Bure. in seventh place and hit the 500-point milestone.

More Members on the Two-Time Team in 2024-25?

Bure is the only member of the 100-point club twice over 30 years now. That could change this season as Miller and Pettersson are likely to approach that mark again. If both do it, it will be the first time in franchise history that the Canucks have had two players hit triple digits in the same season. With Miller in full swing and Pettersson just coming into his own, we could see it not only this season but also in the future, as both are signed until 2030.
