Quoting: HOCKEYBOY448
How was Ekman-Larsson this year? His contract is pretty large. I wonder if there’s a trade to be made for Marino and still keep Miller. If so I feel like that’d be a perfect addition to the lineup. Do you see Rathbone being an everyday player next year?
OEL had a very good bounce back season for the Canucks. Yeah, the contract still looks a bit onerous, but I don't think the Canucks are complaining, OEL was not the reason the Canucks missed the playoffs by any means
Hopeful that Rathbone is an everyday NHLer next season, he's very talented. He went through his ups and downs in the AHL this season, getting injured, getting covid, but finishing the year strong, I've still got my fingers crossed about his development being on track and him putting in a productive off-season
Canucks won't be able to acquire Marino unless they give up an asset they really like. Boeser and Horvat sound like they want to stay, so the question really comes down to whether or not Miller wants to re-sign, and at a reasonable numbers. They aren't actively shopping him, but they could flip a guy like Garland if they wanted, question then becomes what Pittsburgh wants to do. Depends if they say they are going to make Marino available, and that will depend on what happens with Kris Letang. If Letang walks, Marino ain't going anywhere, and Canucks will have to look elsewhere
