Vancouver Canucks Now Targeting Trade Options From Eastern Conference Team

"Indeed, in checking into the Canucks' priorities this week, we weren't surprised to hear that Allvin is active in trade discussions as the start of the regular season approaches. Senior team officials cautioned, however, that it's difficult to gauge whether the Canucks will be able to accomplish the sort of trade they're looking for prior to setting their 23-man opening-day roster early next week." Thomas Drance of The Athletic said.

He added, "What the Canucks are shopping for is unchanged from this summer: an impact centre. Ideally, a second-line calibre player, but an above-average third-line centre would potentially do as well."

"Yes yes yes. Before you even finish with the question, yes." Marek said when asked if the Sabres could be an early seller. "I mean, I think we're at the point now with the Buffalo Sabres where by the time American Thanksgiving rolls around, how many players are going to be asking out?"

"Alex Tuch hasn't signed. His wife is from BC, she's actually from Vancouver. So, does that one make some sense? Does that satisfy what Vancouver is looking for? I know it's the race for a second line center, but, there's a lot of talk about, you know, talk around the Edmonton Oilers. That would probably make some sense with their newfound Connor McDavid cap space. I just mentioned Devon Levi a second ago, like they're ride or die right now with Alex Lyon and Colton Ellis, with UPL out. Things once again feel really, and I hate to do this just based on 'vibes', but man, don't things once again really feel off with the Buffalo Sabres."
