But I lived in Vancouver for over 15 years and that market is as reactive and pre-mature as they come. Their owner is the same and if Dhaliwal (very reputable source in BC) is reporting that the org. is looking to reward the team on their play, it confirms that once again, they believe they've got something here after less than 10 games, so make the deal and be rewarded with a top 10 pick when this season is done.

I am fine with trading with the Canucks but doubt we would be getting a top 10 pick back. There are a lot of bad teams in the Pacific alone (San Jose, Calgary, Anaheim eventually) that should ensure they get a number of free bingo spaces on the schedule.
