Canucks still on the mix for two intriguing forwards: Allvin still shopping?
The Canucks have been relatively active over the summer, trying to fill the many voids left by the expiring contracts. Patrik Allvin played strategically, but according to the most recent reports, he isn't done yet.
Canucks and Hurricanes still talking Martin Necas?
In a recent article released on the Fourth Period, a group of notable NHL insiders, Martin Necas, found himself as the 4th player on their trade watch list with the Canucks as a potential landing spot. At first, it was believed that Filip Hronek was the Huricannes' target, but after he signed, the belief was that the Canucks had fallen out of contention for the speedy Czech.
Even though he signed a two-year extension with the Hurricanes, the Czech will likely be headed to a new destination soon. Could the Canucks consider swapping Nils Hoglander for Necas? We'll have to see how this plays out, but there could be an intriguing opportunity for the Canucks to upgrade their top six another notch.
Former second-overall pick catching Patrik Allvin's eye?
It's a secret to no one that Patrik Allvin likes the redemption projects. After he swung for a home run in a low-cost trade over a year ago for the former top pick Vitaly Kravtsov, it's believed that Allvin would have laid eyes on another failed Rangers prospect in Kaapo Kakko.
The Fin has been out of touch with the Rangers, and his inability to seize opportunities has often involved him in various trade talks. As he peaked and reached his full potential, would a change of scenery allow him to take his game to the next level? That's something the Canucks are evaluating at the moment, according to David Pagnotta and his insider information.
Regardless of how this plays out, Allvin shouldn't feel rushed to make a trade for a forward. After their free agency and the gamble they took, the Canucks should feel very confident with https://www.canucksdaily.com/nhl-team/vancouver-canucks/projected-lineup-for-canucks-opener-vs-calgary-shared-they-should-be-scared.
At the end of the day, if Allvin had what it took to make it happen, who would you rather see in the Blue, Green and White uniform?
