REMINISCING | NHL release a statement regarding Bruce Boudreau and the Canucks
The Vancouver Canucks may be in a new-era under Rick Tocchet and so far, it's going quite well, but one year ago, another coach was behind the bench - Bruce Boudreau.
Boudreau was beloved by Canucks fans and hockey fans in general and we've officially passed the one-year mark since the former Vancouver bench boss made National Hockey League history.
On October 27th, 2022, the Vancouver Canucks defeated the Seattle Kraken by a score of 5-4 and with the victory, Bruce Boudreau earned his 600th career win as a head coach in the NHL and became the second-fastest to reach that mark, only behind Hall-of-Famer Scotty Bowman.

Boudreau would go on to spend the next three months behind Vancouver's bench before management decided to make a change in January, replacing him with Rick Tocchet. Plenty of fans were not happy with how the situation was handled regarding Boudreau's firing from the organization and it lingered for a little while, but after the team showed some promising signs under Rick Tocchet, the fan base turned their attention to the future.
