The Canucks emitted a statement earlier that announced terrible news for the Canucks Sports & Entertainment and the hockey community.

Vern Frick, who had been ushering at the Rogers Arena for the past few years has passed on Thursday. A beloved member of the family who loved his job within the Canucks' organization and loved sharing his passion for the game:

''Canucks Sports & Entertainment are devastated to hear about the passing of a cherished member of our Canucks family, Vern Frick.

Vern was a beacon of kindness and warmth, always brightening the hearts of every single fan he encountered.


He graced our buildings with his lively presence as a dedicated Host for over 53 years, dating back to the very first Canucks game played on October 9, 1970 at the Pacific Coliseum.

Our deepest condolences to Vern's family, friends, and colleagues. Vern will be deeply missed, and his legacy will forever live on.

Vern Frick: Forever a Canuck.''


We wish to send our deepest condolences to the family in these times of need.
