Rumor: Changes Coming to the Vancouver Canucks
The Vancouver Canucks continue to struggle this season and it appears some kind of change is coming to the organization. At this point it has yet to be confirmed if it's the coach or general manager getting canned or if a couple of trades will be the answer.
Friedman on 32TP talking #Canucks: "You just can't help but feel something is coming there over the next little while and everybody is kind of waiting to see what's that first move going to be".

The Canucks thought they had themselves a successful offseason by locking up some of their core pieces but unfortunately nobody is playing up to their expectations. The team sits 6-11-2 and are only ahead of the dismal Seattle Kraken by three points for dead last in their division.
There's a bunch of focus on Elias Pettersson, Bo Horvat and Brock Boeser at the moment as they have only recorded one combined point in their last six games. Of the three, Boeser is the most likely to even be a part of trade discussions. The other two aren't going anywhere anytime soon, regardless of how many games the Canucks lose this season.
Besides Boeser, some other names to watch out for on the rumor mill are Tyler Myers, Tyler Motte, Alex Chiasson, Tanner Pearson, and Travis Hamonic.

The Canucks are 3-6-1 in their last 10 games and will look to get back on track on Wednesday when they head to Pittsburgh to take on a streaking Penguins team who have been playing a shut down game. Interesting times in Vancouver to say the least, let us know what you think happens first for the Canucks.
