He's gone from a 100-point scorer to a 50-point scorer the last two years. The difference is... that $92.8 million contract. Elias Pettersson is the biggest anchor holding down the Vancouver Canucks and the team being able to forge full-bore into its rebuild. The 27-year-old Swede is firmly on the trade block, but with six more years to run at an $11.6 million cap hit and a full no-move clause, it's a difficult situation.

The team could afford to augment their depth down the middle by turning their gaze West and attempting to leverage their assets for the Vancouver Canucks Elias...

It’s been three whole NHL seasons since Luke Schenn last suited up for the Vancouver Canucks. And in the sport of hockey, that’s an enormous amount of time.
