Tanner Pearson is entering the final year of his contract. Should he be a part of the Vancouver Canucks’ long-term future?

Last month served as a tough reminder to the Vancouver Canucks that the salary cap doesn’t allow you to keep everybody you want.

The cap-strapped Canucks saw goalie Jacob Markstrom, defencemen Chris Tanev and Troy Stecher and forward Tyler Toffoli all leave in free agency. General manager Jim Benning filled two of the voids by signing veteran netminder Braden Holtby and by acquiring standout blueliner Nate Schmidt in a trade with the Vegas Golden Knights.
