With the Vancouver Canucks back at the bottom of the standings, fans and writers prefer to look at the future rather than the present. And a little bit down the road, perhaps as early as this summer, the Canucks will need to find a successor for Henrik Sedin.
How about a trade?
In the recent past, we discussed the possibility of trading for Colorado Avalanche centre Matt Duchene. While I personally wasn’t opposed to the idea, some others were.
The reason is simple: we all want a new top-line centre, but we don’t want the Canucks to give up talent to acquire one.
