Canucks continue to be trapped in that "we can rebuild and still be competitive" mindset. VAnek should help them, but isn't a good idea in teh long run. You have to lose one more year, I think, and get a top 3 pick. They got jobbed last year, but this year has a much better crop at the top of the draft.

It's not like being stuck with what appears to be a finished Eriksson. The club has a year left with the Sedins. They're untradeable, so do what you can to get the most out of them. |

And they can trade him at the deadline. I often wonder if it's worthwhile to 'compete' while trying to become a contender. Unless you're really lucky (e.g. Win the lottery despite just missing the playoffs) it's so difficult to do.

Unless you're really lucky (e.g. Win the lottery despite just missing the playoffs) it's so difficult to do. They would certainly appear to be taking the retool approach. Missing out on a top two pick this year hurt, but there's significant evidence to suggest that if they had picked where the odds had them, they wouldn't have picked either Hischier or Patrick. |
