COLORADO AT VANCOUVER, 8 p.m. Tuesday, ALT, 950 AM
Spotlight on: Thomas Vanek
The Canucks forward from Austria is playing for his seventh NHL team, and next week he could be with his eighth. Vanek, 34, signed a one-year, $2 million contract with Vancouver last summer. Since the Canucks aren’t going to make the playoffs and Vanek is a pending unrestricted free agent, there’s a strong chance he get traded to a contender by Monday’s deadline. Vanek is the Canucks’ second-leading scorer, with 40 points (16 goals) in 59 games. He has 349 goals in his 944-game career, which includes stints with Buffalo, the New York Islanders, Montreal, Minnesota, Detroit and Florida.
