How to unlock the Canucks Trophy achievement in NHL 2K10 - Definitive Guide
Start a quickplay game with you controlling the Vancouver Canucks, and the opposition being the New York Rangers. The shorter the better, so do 1 minute periods.
Now just win the game.
If you want to make it easier, you can mess with the sliders/difficulty, or even use a 2nd controller to control the Rangers (including pulling their goalie for very easy goals).
Trivia note: this achievement is due to the fact that the two times the Vancouver Canucks have made it to the final round of the Stanley Cup playoffs they lost. The first was in 1982 when they were swept by the New York Islanders, and the second was in 1994 when they lost game 7 against the New York Rangers. I'm a lifelong fan of the Canucks, and was living just outside of Vancouver in '94 and still remember the riots that broke out in downtown Vancouver after the Canucks lost. :(

So Vancouver has a riot problem then?

The irony is I posted that solution before the 2011 riots. So, yes, apparently it does (and I say this as someone who grew up 15 minutes away from Vancouver).

I'm not sure if you just have to beat the Islanders or Rangers with anyone or with the Canucks. I used the Canucks just to be safe. Play the Islanders (it says "or", doesn't have to be both) because they're bad with the Canucks on Rookie with 1 minute periods. You can use the 2 controller method if you want as well.
Go to "Play Now," pick Vancouver and beat ether the Islanders or Rangers in a game. Don't forget to set the difficulty to Easy and period minutes to 1.
