LATEST | Trio of defencemen linked to the Canucks: Renewing with former players?
There's no question that the Canucks would like to address the right side of their defensive corps and that General Manager Patrik Allvin is scouring the trade market to find the perfect fit.
Recently, Allvin added Mark Friedman in a trade with the Pittsburgh Penguins, but the Canucks still need more help on the right side because, beyond Filip Hronek, they're pretty thin depth-wise.
On Friday, Rick Dhaliwal of CHEK TV's 'Donnie & Dhali' suggested three names that the Vancouver Canucks could target to help round out their defensive group as they push for a spot in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Dhaliwal mentioned Calgary Flames defencemen Chris Tanev and Nikita Zadorov, along with Carolina's Jalen Chatfield, as potential fits. Tanev and Chatfield are no strangers to playing in Vancouver; both spent 514 and 18 games, respectively, in a Canucks uniform. As for Nikita Zadorov, he would add an exciting dynamic to the Canucks' defensive group, bringing a physical, two-way game.
