As the Vancouver Canucks<\/a> remain at the bottom of the NHL standings, signs continue to emerge that the organization may be preparing for a significant shift in direction as it enters its next phase.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday\u2019s episode of Insider Trading on TSN, Darren Dreger reported that Canucks management has indicated they are now willing to listen to trade talk on most players, including the more high-profile names on the roster:<\/p>\n

\u201cObviously, every club in the National Hockey League has untouchables, but management of the Vancouver Canucks is now using the rebuild word. So they have to be open for business, open for just about anything, and that might include finally trading Elias Pettersson. Now, we know that there\u2019s been a ton of speculation from a media perspective on Pettersson\u2019s future with the Vancouver Canucks. That was more into the offseason \u2013 more last season than to this point. I can tell you, there\u2019s been no communication with the agent who represents Elias Pettersson \u2013 Pat Brisson \u2013 and they would have to communicate directly with Pettersson\u2019s camp, because he has the no move clause. But, the Vancouver Canucks are listening and will listen to interest in Pettersson despite believing that if he gets a change of scenery and a new start somewhere else, he\u2019s going to thrive in a new environment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pettersson is currently in the second season of an eight-year, $92.8 million contract with an average annual value of $11.6 million. Through 37 games this season, he has registered 27 points, a significant decrease in pace seen from the former Calder Trophy winner, who once posted a 39-goal, 102-point season in 2022-23.<\/p>\n

Whether Pettersson factors into the next competitive iteration of the Canucks remains uncertain, but Vancouver has clearly signalled a willingness to explore all options.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As the Vancouver Canucks remain at the bottom of the NHL standings, signs continue to emerge that the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":408389,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[433],"tags":[49,48,448,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-408388","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nhl","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-nhl","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/408388","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=408388"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/408388\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/408389"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=408388"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=408388"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=408388"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
