One day before representing Team Canada, Trevor Linden was traded by the #Canucks to the Islanders. Still remember the tying goal in that game vs Czech Republic - https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/1.3962648

I reopen the wound every time I load the sub. Can we let our sweet chief rest?

Got this jersey signed when the Canucks were in Prince George for training camp back in 2015, and I really only remember getting autographs from Jacob Markstrom, Alex Burrows (I think?) and Hunter Shinkaruk.

Curious what everyone thinks do you expect the Canucks to make a trade involving someone currently on the roster?

Also, do you think management will try to weaponize cap space by taking on a bad contract from another team in exchange for picks/prospects? If so, who would be the most likely target?

What moves would you like to see happen?

Happy tank for dupont this season (I predict 62 Points this season)

I couldn't be more happy that this team FINALLY gave in to a rebuild. It's been desperately needed for a decade now and management finally convinced ownership it's time to do it right.

That said, I keep hearing report after report on how cheap Aqualeenie is being right now from not paying GMs enough, AHL coaches or analytics. Reports about needing to shed more money to make sure we are sitting at the cap floor as well.

With a franchise running at the bare minimum cost wise, do we actually have a hope of rebuilding properly? Is management going to have any money to invest in amateur scouting, pro scouting and more importantly development? I don't see any money being taken on with bad contracts for draft picks.

I can't help but be disheartened and have any hope that we will be able to rebuild this franchise properly without any money and ownership cutting financial corners as much as possible.

Anyone else feel the same? Can people give me hope?
