Crazy to think that just a few years ago the canucks had....
- A 25 year old #1 goalie (Demko)
- A 21 year old #1 Dman (Hughes)
- A 28 year old center capable of point per game or better (Miller)
- A 26 year old center capable of point per game or better (Horvat)
- A 22 year old center capable of point per game or better (Petterson)
They also had a 25 year old Boeser who had 30+ goals, a 26 year old Kuzmenko who had 30+ goals, and a 26 year old Garland who had 45 points.
Horvat gone
Miller gone
Demko with one year left then UFA
Hughes with two years left then UFA
Petterson still there but struggling and room still divided because he's why Miller is gone
They only really won one playoff round with that core and it's being torn to shreds in front of our eyes.
Hopefully they don't have some sort of dead cat bounce here, and just spiral out of the playoff picture.
