24 Year Old Canucks Forward Generating Interest Around the League, Per Kevin Weekes

The Canucks are yet to show the same rhythm they had last season, where they finished 1st in the Pacific Division with 109 points.

They lost five of their last ten games, with an 11-7-3 record so far this year.

Those disappointing results can be attributed to Thatcher Demko's injury. The Canucks number-one goalie is yet to play a game this season because of a knee injury sustained in the last playoffs.

With Denko coming back, the team will be in a great position to build the momentum to win in the playoffs.

As of now, management is evaluating all their options to bolster the lineup, with reports confirming that several players on their roster generate interest on the market.

After rumors of the New York Rangers showing interest in forward J.T. Miller, it seems another player is getting attention: Nils Hoglander.

The former NHL goaltender and current analyst Kevin Weekes revealed on X that the Washington Capitals, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Columbus Blue Jackets are interested in acquiring the forward.

Hoglander, 23, scored five points so far this season, but scored 24 goals with the Canucks last season, showing great potential.

He has three years left on his $3 million AAV contract in Vancouver, which could dissuade some teams from going after him.

It'll be interesting to see what the Canucks do. With multiple options on the table, we could see big moves from Patrik Allvin in the months leading to the March 7th trade deadline.

Meanwhile, the team is facing off against the Buffalo Sabres today, and will be in action on Sunday afternoon against the Detroit Red Wings to face Patrick Kane, Moritz Seider and Dylan Larkin.
