Canucks are playing in and winning meaningful games with 8 games left in the season, for that I am grateful, this team bends but doesn't break, depleted forward group without Boeser,Pearson,Hoglander, and Highmore, not gonna be pretty but they muck it out, very proud

@bigbadcanucks I wouldn't call it a long road ahead....
We need to get one good d-man on the right side instead of the jambalaya of different experiments that we have right now. If trading out Hamonic was possible, then Myers moving in the summer after his very stellar season is not that hard to imagine anymore.
Playing at a 105 pace over 60 games is nothing to sneeze at.
We're going to gain a bit of extra cap flexibility this off-season and hopefully refresh our stock or prospects by getting an extra pick or two in 2022 or 2023.
I'm expecting a 100 point season from our guys next year, while coming in 2-3 million under the salary cap and not getting any older. That is perfectly attainable and would be a nice accomplishment by Allvin and company.

Yeah I'm hoping Bubble Demko comes back and a little early, just in time to go on a late season run, and then hopefully Brock and the reinforcements can return for an unexpected dark horse run.
Also agreed with @VancouverHabitant, the inefficient contracts remaining are Myers, Poolman, Dickinson and to lesser extent OEL (not including Pearson in this). If we don't trade him, I think we could always repurpose Dickinson and pair him with a defensively capable 3rd C and another Motte-type on the other wing for a shutdown unit so the scorers can go out and focus on offense. Myers can probably be moved with a mild sweetener, and maybe Poolman can go for a 4th or something. -
