The Kiefer Sherwood and Vancouver Canucks saga continues. Earlier today, CHEK TV’s Rick Dhaliwal reported that the Canucks have made Sherwood a new offer that sits at around $4M per year with "medium term." Sherwood’s current deal pays him $1.5M per year.
Sherwood has been viewed as one of the Canucks’ best assets this season given his excellent performances each game as well as his status as a pending UFA. The forward has been able to inject energy and physicality into Vancouver’s lineup while providing a fair amount of offence and a stable presence on the penalty kill.
This is Sherwood’s second season with Vancouver, as the forward signed with the Canucks in free agency during the 2024 off-season. The 2024–25 season was filled with career-highs for him, as Sherwood put up new personal records in goals (19) and points (40) as well as set a new NHL single-season hit record (464).
Throughout the start of the 2025–26 season, Sherwood has held the Canucks’ lead in goals-scored, as he currently has 17. This includes two hat tricks, the second and third of his career, scored against the St. Louis Blues (October 30) and New York Islanders (December 19) respectively.
