Today we're going over Jim Benning's interview on TSN 1040 recently, and expanding a little bit on the trade rumours and ideas on Loui Eriksson and Brandon Sutter—two Canucks who cost a lot of money on the salary cap—as well as the concerns highlighted towards Jake Virtanen.
The Vancouver Canucks have a lot of moves they would have to do to re-sign Jacob Markstrom, Chris Tanev, and Tyler Toffoli, but the other pieces in Jake Virtanen, Troy Stecher, Adam Gaudette, Zack MacEwen, and Tyler Motte definitely present newer concerns as well.
This all comes after the Vancouver Canucks were eliminated by the Vegas Golden Knights in their second round series in the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
