You said Boudreau was rightfully extended ,,, he was NOT extended... his contract is in the final year. Dead man walking is apt here - Boudreau is only still employed due to the fact the ownership does not favor paying Travis Green - Bruce Boudreau - and coach X. This points to Bruce being emmoved and an interim coach tag being slapped onto either Mike Yo ... or more likely their AHL coach Jeremy Colliton being elevated and Yo also being kicked out. You ARE correct about changes though ... removing 4 or more of the top half of the starting 10 is very likely now or by the deadline. There will be no 2023 playoffs and the organization needs draft picks.

Canucks are in turmoil? No, they're obviously improved over last year. Just need to wait for that second half heater to kick in and then plan the Cup parade. BRUCE, there it is! BRUCE, there it is! No Bruce not there, THERE!

So - as a precursor - I have plenty of Edmonton relatives ... and having met dozens of Edmonton fans besides them - I have seen you all suffer from the same delusions of grandeur. Kicking the Canucks being a hobby I get,,, when we had the Sedins here kicking the Oilers was fun too. But make no mistake - the Oilers are no closer to winning a cup again than are the sad sack Canucks. McJesus and Draisaitl will both be gone to free agency in a few years - because without great defence and goaltending you will not win. Oilers have neither.

The last team that sources said were about to make a MAJOR trade or coaching change, was the St. Louis Blues. Things could be happening TONIGHT!

Nothing happened. No trade. No coach fired. Blues went on to win their next 7 games.

But I guess this is a PRIME source. So could be a different story.

Another legit top 4 dman would make a big difference for the Canucks, obviously more then one would be better but thats not easy to do, hell just getting one would be tough to do but if management could somehow acquire just a defense first top 4 guy it'd go a long way to stabilizing this team, Rutherford's biggest failure of the offseason was doing nothing to address the Canucks defense.

Idk who's really available, the asking price for Chycrun is too much to give up, wonder what Philly would want for Provorov.

Rutherford is in no hurry to make changes, him and Allvin are still evaluating the team.

You could look at Erik Karlsson, but you'll need a thyroid team to help with the cap hit.

Strange how everywhere you find chaos and things are imploding, Mike Yeo is in the middle of it.

Nothing to see here people it’s all part of the tank. However, selling for draft picks would be welcome by many fans.

Mike Yeo is who you hire when you want your franchise to tank for a top 5 pick.

I doubt they have the cap space tho

The change that needs to happen is Rutherford being fired along with Yeo.
