Everybody knows it, the Canucks will be one of the most active team on the trade market the closer we get to the deadline. Eager to improve their current line-up, the Canucks will be looking at every possible options in hopes of adding a top six forward and possibly, another defenseman.

TSN ISSUES THEIR TOP TRADE BAIT LIST

TSN issued their very own top 10 trade bait list and top end talent is expected to be moved:


1. Elias Lindholm
2. Chris Tanev
3. Jake Allen
4. Sean Monahan
5. Sean Walker
6. Vladimir Tarasenko
7. Noah Hanifin
8. Anthony Duclair
9. Andrei Kuzmenko
10. Ilya Lyubushkin




It's no surprise to see Andrei Kuzmenko's name out there. The unsteady relationship between the coaching staff and the winger make him an obvious potential trade chip.

On the other side of things, a few interesting names could be extremely interesting for the Canucks. Elias Lindholm may be the best commodity for the Canucks, especially with their recent need of a 2nd line centerman, but Sean Monahan may be the logical option. Given the Canucks won't be willing to spend a premium return for what will most likely be a rental.

If Tocchet chose to separate the Lotto Line, Vladimir Tarasenko and Anthony Duclair could also represent interesting addition to the team.

It'll be interesting to see how things develop from that point on. Many analyst have stated that the Canucks are not done and that they'll definitely be adding.
