The Vancouver Canucks eye a mix of distressed veterans and promising prospects to fuel their rebuild as the March 6 deadline looms. GMs whisper about flipping pending UFAs like Teddy Blueger, David Kampf, and Evander Kane for assets, while targets such as Warren Foegele, Ryan Strome, and young guns like Conor Geekie surface in backchannel talks.

Vancouver sits at a crossroads with the trade deadline looming, weighing whether to chase vets like Ryan Strome or cash in their own pieces for youth. GM Patrik Allvin talks rebuild but keeps the door cracked for conversations on everyone from Teddy Blueger to pending UFAs, while Jim Rutherford signals no one's untouchable. The Olympic freeze bought time, but post-break moves could reshape their roster for years, especially if contenders like Carolina or Dallas come calling with real assets.
