1984–85 Vancouver Canucks season

LaForge signed a two-year contract and promised tough practices, while emphasizing his Ph.D. philosophy – pride, hustle, and desire.[7] The following day, it was revealed that fan favourite Harold Snepsts would be heading to Minnesota after playing his entire ten-year career in a Canucks uniform.[9] Entering the option year of his contract and unable to agree to terms for a new one, enforcer Tiger Williams was dealt to the Detroit Red Wings for Rob McClanahan.Notable absences included Thomas Gradin and Patrik Sundström, who were representing Team Sweden in the Canada Cup tournament, as well as Darcy Rota and Stu Kulak who were both recovering from injuries.[13] The team continued to travel aboard their private jet, Air Canuck, for all road trips until late in the season when the plane was sold.
