The J.T. Miller trade at the draft, while (rightfully) widely maligned, did prove one thing for the Vancouver Canucks: that General Manager Jim Benning was out to improve the team’s top two scoring lines, and was going to be aggressve in doing so. While Miller does fill one hole, there is much debate about how to fill the remaining spot on the wing (with Brock Boeser and Tanner Pearson presumably filling two spots themselves).

One of the more positive storylines from the 2018-19 campaign was the trade for Josh Leivo, and his subsequent emergence as a relatively reliable offensive threat.
