Vancouver Canucks clinch Pacific Division title ahead of playoffs

Apr 16, 2024 | 10:51 PM

VANCOUVER — The Vancouver Canucks will finish the NHL regular season as the top team in the Pacific Division.

The Canucks (50-22-9) clinched the title Tuesday when they defeated the visiting Calgary Flames 4-1. 

It’s the first time Vancouver has finished atop its division since 2013 when the team went 48-26-15 to finish first in the Northwest. 

The Canucks are still chasing the Stars for the No. 1 spot in the Western Conference, but need a win over the Jets on Thursday and a Dallas loss to the St. Louis Blues on Wednesday to accomplish the feat.

The Canucks are preparing for their first playoff appearance since 2020 and will host post-season games for the first time since 2015.
