The time has come for the Vancouver Canucks to invest everything they have to the rebuild. Last year, the rebuild took form in the trading away of fan favourites Alexandre Burrows and Jannik Hansen, two of the few remaining pieces from the 2011 Stanley Cup Final. Now, it’s time for more.
Looking at the offseason it has been for the Canucks, it’s easy to see that there is a massive logjam up front in the forward ranks. It will surely result in arguably NHL-ready forwards seeing time in the minors, at least to begin the year.
