"Anchors" expiring after this season, and for a team that was out of the playoff race by week-two last year.
I agree the Canucks will be better in 2021-22, but this trade makes things pretty ugly beyond that. Their core-players are still young, but their top-centre can't play more than 60 games in a season, and their best defenseman was one of the worst defensive players in the entire League last year.
