I never thought this would need explaining but when Canucks fans or any other Canadian team buy tickets they pay in Canadian dollars so when the team pays the players there is an exchange rate difference.
Three of the top five NHL teams in terms of single team revenue generation are Canadian teams, Edmonton, Toronto & Montreal. This somewhat mitigates the currency exchange, at least for those three teams. They charge a lot more for ticket prices than U.S. based teams and they have lucrative local TV deals in their markets that U.S. teams don’t have, because of the rabid hockey fans in Canada will pay for it, unlike the U.S. where professional hockey takes a back burner to many other sports. Vancouver is 12th according to the below list for team revenue generation for 2025 with 234 million, all in USD.

I never went back to that site even once. It was over. It was no longer a hockey site.
X is becoming a cesspool also these days.
I don’t think the future is bright any longer for Canadian hockey. NHL is streaming more games and with the currency exchange difference and top players wanting to play in tax free states It does not look good for Canucks. I probably expect to see about forty games on TV this year instead of the full 82 plus.
84 games this year. Gotta milk the teet until it’s dry. I don’t imagine the revenue from the extra 2 games makes it’s way to the consumer in any way shape or form aside from the extra wallet grab.

It has always been that way & the exchange rate has been fairly consistent. Also ticket prices for 🇨🇦 teams are not cheap giveaways like Florida teams & better attendance in 🇨🇦 cities even in the PO’s.

This makes sense to me.

If Hronek isn’t the long term captain this works until one rises from the ranks.

Canadian teams just have to build a winner, that changes everything. There’s a bunch of NHL teams in high tax states just like Canada, Minnesota, Anaheim, LA Kings, San Jose, Washington DC, Washington State, New Jersey, Islanders, Rangers, Boston, Buffalo, they all pay high tax rates with the high salaries in pro sports.
Currency for Canadian teams is definitely an issue though with a ever-increasing salary cap, and the crappy weather most Canadian teams have to offer their players, taxes certainly plays into it too, but that’s not purely a Canadian problem.
