While the Canucks had a season to remember in 2023-24, the franchise has taken a nosedive ever since.<\/p>\n<p>That culminated in a hellish 2025-26 season, which saw the Canucks sink to last place in the NHL standings with a 25-49-8 record. The Canucks posted the third-worst points percentage (.354) in franchise history this season, equalling the mark set by the Messier-era team in 1998-99. The only two Canucks seasons with worse points percentages were from their expansion era, in 1971-72 and 1972-73.<\/p>\n<p>Changes could extend beyond the general manager.
