Vancouver Canucks' Rick Tocchet Wins Jack Adams Award – Hockey Writers – NHL News
Vancouver Canucks head coach, Rick Tocchet, won the 2024 Jack Adams Award, given to the coach who is considered to have contributed the most to his team's success. This should come as no surprise to fans who saw the Canucks win the Pacific Division with 109 points, 26 points more than last season.
Tocchet, who made the finals for the first time since Jack Adams, is the third in Canucks history, trailing Pat Quinn in 1991-92 and Alain Vigneault in 2006-07. This is incredibly impressive for Tocchet who is in his first full season as the club's head coach. He previously coached the Tampa Bay Lightning and Arizona Coyotes, with a 248-235-73 regular season record and an 11-11 record in the playoffs.
