Canucks GM Patrik Allvin tells me neither Conor Garland nor Quinn Hughes are travelling with the team. Canucks flying to St. Louis today. Allvin still hopeful Hughes can join the team in either Minnesota or Nashville.

Hiring Adam Foote will down as one of the worst coaching hires in franchise history. That doesn't necessarily mean next season will be a disaster. Even Willie D made the playoffs in his first season. But long-term this is going to be horrible.

Canucks in pre-season when Miller was missing games. "He's not injured" - Then Miller admits he was injured Canucks on Demko injury "it's not serious" - Now he's out multiple weeks at minimum. Almost like it's a pattern or something. Will be adding a certain C to this list in the future 😁
