I decided to make a list of the longest tenured current Canucks players in the Canucks Organization.

 

By time spent in the organization:

  1. Thatcher Demko (Drafted in 2014, 2nd round)
  2. Brock Boeser (Drafted in 2015, 1st round)
  3. Guillaume Brisebois (Drafted in 2015, 3rd round)
  4. Elias Pettersson (Drafted in 2017, 1st round)
  5. Jack Rathbone (Drafted in 2017, 4th round)

 

By first NHL game played for the Canucks (regular season or playoffs):

  1. Brock Boeser (March 2017)
  2. Thatcher Demko (March 2018)
  3. Elias Pettersson (October 2018)
  4. Guillaume Brisebois (February 2019)
  5. Quinn Hughes (March 2019)

 

Brock Boeser and Thatcher Demko are the only remaining current Canucks players to have played in a regular season NHL game with the Sedins.

 

Do let me know if i missed anyone on these lists!

Crazy how long we've had Brisebois around. Not many fringe NHL guys stick around that long.

 

He has been an excellent foot soldier for the club.  Everything you could ask from a D-man that's 8/9th on the depth chart.  Different players but he reminds me of Nolan Baumgartner.  I hope he makes it full-time one day.

Or Frank Caprice.  He was our #3 goalie for something like a decade.

He's like our version of Rudy.  I hope Brendan Gaunce makes it back here one day as well.

Breezy has been a solid foot soldier for us for a long time.   It's too bad he's injured.   Played well for us last Spring.   And has put his time in.   For a 3rd rounder, he's well past the par bar already.
