Joshua, coming off a career-high season with 18 goals and 32 points in 63 games, was set to be a free agent but will now stay with the Canucks. This move ensures the continuity of the team's successful third line, including players like Teddy Blueger and Conor Garland. General Manager Patrik Allvin praised Joshua's growth and fit within the team's system, indicating optimism for his future development and potential power-play role. With this signing, Vancouver solidifies its roster amidst other recent player extensions and trades.
