The 2005–06 Vancouver Canucks season was the Canucks' 36th NHL season.

In the first season after the lockout, the Canucks were expected to fare as well, if not better, than the previous season, where they captured the Northwest Division title. However, as the season went along, several key players were hampered by injuries and the team failed to meet expectations, ultimately missing the playoffs. As a result, coach Marc Crawford was fired, and the team underwent numerous changes over the summer.

Notes

  1. ^ Compensation due to Anaheim hiring Randy Carlyle as their head coach.
  2. ^ If the Islanders re-signed Sopel beyond the 2005–06 season, the Canucks would receive a 2nd-round pick. If not, the Canucks would receive a 3rd-round pick instead.
  3. ^ The pick would upgrade to a third-rounder if Atlanta re-signed McCarthy. Vancouver traded this pick back to Atlanta on June 14.
  4. ^ In parentheses is the player's free agency group on August 1 if applicable. [31]

The 2005–06 Vancouver Canucks season was the Canucks' 36th NHL season.

In the first season after the lockout, the Canucks were expected to fare as well, if not better, than the previous season, where they captured the Northwest Division title. However, as the season went along, several key players were hampered by injuries and the team failed to meet expectations, ultimately missing the playoffs. As a result, coach Marc Crawford was fired, and the team underwent numerous changes over the summer.
