Patrick Johnston of Postmedia stops by to give his two cents on the immediate future of the team, and whether they may be in on some players that could be available. He also weighs in on the Canucks defensive structure and the ability to survive another long stretch without Thatcher Demko.

DPetey is young, and has been hammered a few times this season. Probably not 100%. Not concerned. MPetey cost us a first round pick and looks like the second coming of Soucy
Where Mancini? What a joke
Management has put together a mess of contracts. It’s time to move on from this GM.
I think it’s time to bring up Ryan Johnson from the Abbotsford, Canucks.
I think Kane and Sherwood need to be moved at the deadline. If Sherwood continues to play the way he is you could possibly get a first round pick for him.
The elephant in the room is does Hughes want to stay with the Canucks?
If Hughes doesn’t want to stay with the Canucks, I think it’s best to move on him by this trade deadline. Don’t waste any time you could get at least a first a second and some prospects for Quinn Hughes.
Vancouver could go into the next draft with potentially three first round picks.
This is the time to make hard decisions. Don’t miss this opportunity.
Nothing will change with this team they need a new owner
Canucks need to sell.
They need new owners
Buy out Demko. Trade Hughes for 1-2 roster players & draft picks.
Willander small,Hughes small Myers is done this D is depleted.Time to sell who ever when ever.Rather watch young up and comers than overpayed players
6 games doesn't sound like a lot, but the Canucks don't have 6 games to give. Already under .500, and the yard stick of American thanksgiving is coming up.
Aquilinis ownership lack vision, financial fortitude to sacrifice for a rebuild.
As well, they’re delusional about the Canucks true overall team talent depth.
Canucks are 5th worst team in the nhl, why turn it around so we can barely miss playoffs and get that 16th round pick. Like stop doing this lol
Allvin put the Canucks between the 8 ball by giving Petey 11.6 million to block shots? I think not. As far as Demko goes shut him down for the year and see if he can do it next season, if not buy him out. In my opinion it's way pass the time to blow it up and rebuild which means you trade players like Hughs for top picks and players. I would NOT want Allvin as a GM for a rebuild due to him seeming to think only Swedes can play hockey.
PS to get rid of Petey we would have to pay a team to take him.
Changing the furniture on the Titanic
It doesn't matter if Demko is back in 2 weeks… he will be gone again 2 weeks or a month after that. The team just can't keep doing this. They have to find a way to move on from Demko.
The Canucks owner should cosplay as Jerry Jones.
New owner and new management is the only way. The management has made a mess of this team bad contracts and taking leap on players that have not worked many many players. Refusing to trade petey, signing demko while he had a year left on his contract still and he hadn't proven he could stay healthy.. now shocker hes not healthy. Banking on bounce backs and resurgent years from too many players.
Imagine the team if we still had horvat and demko/silov
Ownership and management.
What about next two drafts? Are there interesting names?
This season is over.
Canucks have never targeted the draft really. What happens next – they will fight hard for the wild card spot, will miss it and get the draft pick around 15.
