capgeek shows them on 50 right now

How close are the Canucks to the 50 contract limit?

quick count = 46

/jstew - you didn't subtract the 4 expired UFAs (Bitz, Duco, Parent, Oreskovich)

Vancouver Canucks Reserve List

 

[jstewismybastardson]

they waived desbiens and mullen ... not sure if that means their contracts dont count towards 50 anymore

/jstew - you didn't subtract the 4 expired UFAs (Bitz, Duco, Parent, Oreskovich)

reserve list is the pro contract count


/ but then 4 slide risk contracts for entry level players are included in the 50

NOTE: Players denoted with "SR" --- the abbreviation for a contract "slide risk" --- do not necessarily count toward the team's 50-man limit, meaning a team may appear over the 50-man limit when it is not.

 

[puckhead]

so the definitive answer is either 50, 48, or 46.

Wade Redden signs with Canucks in 3 ... 2 ... 1 ...

That would be pretty funny.

/That said, Redden > Barker > Vandermeer

Scott Gomez and Wade Redden make sense for the Canucks | CanucksArmy

The #Canucks end practice with shootout. Luongo stops all five shots. Schneider gets beat on four of five.
