1993–94 Vancouver Canucks season

24th season in franchise history

The 1993–94 Vancouver Canucks season was the Canucks' 24th NHL season. Vancouver finished the season second in their division and qualified for the playoffs as the number seven seed. In the playoffs, the Canucks pulled several upsets and reached the Stanley Cup Finals for the second time in franchise history.

Vancouver fell short in its bid to capture the franchise's first Stanley Cup losing Game 7 by a final of 3–2.

Quick Facts Vancouver Canucks, Division ...

During the regular season, Pavel Bure tied his own club record for goals in a season, originally set in the 1992–93 season. Bure's 60 goals led the NHL and as a result he was named a First Team NHL All-Star. Kirk McLean won a team leading 23 games during the regular season, only 8 more than the 15 he recorded in the post-season games. Jeff Brown officially led the team in assists, but did not join the team till after the trade deadline when he was acquired from St. Louis.

In the playoffs, both Bure and captain Trevor Linden were very productive. Bure led all forwards in playoff scoring finishing second overall to Brian Leetch. However, Bure led the league in playoff goals with Linden tied for second. McLean led the playoffs in minutes played, shots against and saves while he and the Rangers Mike Richter tied for the lead in playoff shutouts. McLean finished fourth in goals against average and save percentage.
