Archives: Trevor Linden sets new Canucks record

This day in Vancouver history: Feb. 16, 2004

Trevor Linden overtakes Stan Smyl’s record for the number of overall games played while wearing a Vancouver Canucks jersey after playing in his 897th, a 1-0 win over the Colorado Avalanche in Denver. The NHL team’s current president ended his playing career in 2008 with 1,138 games in total.

Current captain Henrik Sedin is now in second place with, according to Wikipedia, 1,010 games while twin brother Daniel, the goal scorer in the game against the Avs, has just 10 fewer.
