Patrik Allvin will face many tough calls in the next few days regarding his upcoming contracts ending. The Canucks have only 5 NHLers' contracts ending on July 1st; three restricted free agents still need to be qualified, and two are unrestricted on July 1st.
Coming off a 2-year and $1.5M deal, the Langley native collected 10 points through 90 games with the Canucks over the span of his contract. The numbers he's put up on the stat sheet aren't the reason why the Canucks are looking to bring him back, however. Despite being a smaller-format defenseman, he's proven to be quite effective and a real 'go-getter', a player who isn't afraid to go up against the biggest of them all. He leaves it all on the ice whenever is out there.
