With the trade deadline looming in the NHL, almost every team is trying to make their team better for the future. The Canucks have been on a roll for the past month and are 8-0-2 in their last 10 games. Several of these games have been one goal decisions.
Canucks at the Deadline: I believe the Canucks should be somewhat active at the deadline. I would like to see them target a top 4 defensemen who can stay back, clear the crease, and penalty kill. I would also like to see the Canucks target a bottom 6 3rd/4th line gritty forward who can hit and score a timely goal or two. This team is only 1 or 2 pieces away from making a serious push to another Stanley Cup Final. The Canucks have plenty of trade bait with guys like Mason Raymond and Keith Ballard who I deem to be expendable. They also have some draft picks and prospects who they could use to make a big splash.
Also add me on Twitter to join in on the conversation on what you think the Canucks should acquire at the trade deadline. My username is @CanucksFin56
