Over the next 72 hours, Vancouver Canucks fans will be anxiously awaiting to see if general manager Jim Benning pulls off any more trades. Erik Gudbranson was given a three-year extension, and Alexander Edler hasn’t shown any signs that he’ll waive his no-trade clause.
That leaves veteran winger Thomas Vanek as the team’s only somewhat possible trade candidate, but it may be time for Benning to start shopping around defenceman Ben Hutton. The 24-year-old has struggled under head coach Travis Green, and has been a healthy scratch 10 times this season.
