A legendary figure will forever grace the home of the Vancouver Canucks.

The club revealed a new statue of the late Pat Quinn at Rogers Arena on Saturday night before its game against the Calgary Flames.

Quinn was posthumously inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame last year.

The longtime NHL head coach was the Canucks bench boss for parts of five seasons. He was also the club's general manager and had a hand in drafting the likes of current team president Trevor Linden and Hall of Famer Pavel Bure.
