Strange:
It wasn't until 1990 that a Canuck player wore a

Jersey Numbers
For some players it's just
a number, for others it is a vital component in a
superstitious ritual and for rare players, it is the mark
that identifies their career. Players have been wearing
numbers on their backs since the Patrick brothers moved
to the west coast of Canada in the early 1900s. When the
Canucks joined the NHL, jersey numbers were the only way
to identify some players (names were added several years
later).
In their history, the
Canucks have had players wear every number from 1 to 58
and several numbers between 60 and 96. Some players use
the same number for their entire career, while others
switch numbers on a regular basis. See the complete list
of jerseys by number.
Retired Numbers:
#10 - Pavel Bure (officially retired November 2,
2013)
#12 - Stan Smyl (officially retired November 3, 1991)
#16 - Trevor Linden (officially retired November 17,
2008)
#19 - Markus Naslund (officially retired December 11,
2010)
Unused Numbers:
#11 - Wayne Maki (unofficially retired after his death in
May 1974. The number was given to Mark Messier when he
signed with Vancouver, but number 11 has not been worn
since Messier left in 2000.)
#28 - Luc Bourdon (not officially retired, but the number
has not been used since his death in May 2008.)
#37 - Rick Rypien (not officially retired, but the number
has not been used since his death in August 2011.)

Notes
There is either a date or a season in the First
Worn column. Dates represent the actual date of
the game where the player wore the number for the first
time. If a season is listed, I do not have the actual
game date in my records. In some cases a date is listed,
but the comments will indicate that this date is a
"best guess" (noted by the (?) notation in the
comments).
There are three common
phrases in the Comments section. Players
who made their NHL debut with the Canucks are listed as
"First NHL Game" while those who played
elsewhere in the NHL before joining the Canucks are
listed as "First Game as Canuck". In cases
where a player wore one number with the Canucks and then
changed, the comment of "New Number" is used
along with the number that they switched from. Records
from the 1970's and early 1980's are incomplete and the
comments reflect this, but indicate where partial
information is available.
The date in the Last
Worn column does not always correspond to an
actual game date. It represents the latest date that the
player "owned" the number. When players change
numbers or leave the team during the off-season, this
date is usually the date of the last game of the season.
When players are traded during the season, this date is
the date of the last game before they were traded (even
if the player did not play that game). Dates in the month
of July are used when I only know the season the player
wore the number. The "(current)" notation is
used for players who were with the team at the end of the
2015-16 season.
In some cases, players are
listed under a single jersey number twice. This is either
because the player left the Canucks for a significant
period of time (on another team or in the minors) or
because someone else used the same number while the
player was gone. A number may be used by one player at
the start of the season, a second player during the
season, and then the original player may return late in
that same season. They would be listed twice as they
"lost" their number, then got it back.
The Canucks have had two
players named Mike Brown. The first played 16 games
between 2000-01 and 2001-02. The second played 39 games
between 2007-08 and 2008-09. The second Mike Brown's name
is listed as Mike 2 Brown to distinguish the players.
