Vancouver journalist Thomas Drance reported some interesting information regarding the Canucks and their activity on the trade market.

According to what he has learned, the Canucks are extremely active on the market right now, and he even adds that they are ready to accept a trade as soon as today, “if they are offered a big second- or third-line center.”

They are desperately searching for a second- or third-line center, so they are clearly ready to pay.

Should the Habs trade Kirby Dach?

Personally, I really think it depends on what we get in return, but yes, I would be willing to do it for the right offer.

Thomas Drance: Re Canucks: “The club is actively kicking tires and exploring its options. Vancouver would execute a trade today if the deal returned a credible middle-six centre”

“Two players who could be looking for fresh starts may be Alex Newhook and Kirby Dach. Both can play centre and be physical, but both have taken a step back with the Habs. With Ivan Demidov now in Montreal, along with the acquisition of Zach Bolduc, it’s conceivable that Newhook or Dach could be dealt.” – Trevor Beggs

Kirby Dach fits that description.

Dach, 24 years old, is a big center at 6-foot-4 and 221 pounds who was the third overall pick of the Chicago Blackhawks in 2019.

He collected 22 points in 57 games last season, 2 points in 2 games in 2023-2024, as well as 38 points in 58 games in 2022-2023.
