The Carolina Hurricanes have emerged as a potential suitor for Vancouver Canucks star Elias Pettersson, according to TSN’s Chris Johnston. Speaking on TSN’s "Insider Trading" on Tuesday, Johnston first noted that Vancouver remains active in trade discussions involving both Pettersson and J.

If Elias Pettersson is indeed being shopped by the Canucks, where would he best fit? Ryan Dixon takes a look at the top candidates.

Despite Pettersson's recent struggles, his return could mimic past blockbuster deals involving a star center. Winnipeg recently traded Pierre-Luc Dubois to Los Angeles for three NHL pieces and a draft pick. Before that, Buffalo traded Jack Eichel to Vegas for an NHL player, a top prospect, and two draft picks.

Over the past week and a half, Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin and director of player personnel Scott Young took in a series of World Junior games in Ottawa, watched Vancouver’s AHL affiliate in Laval and were in attendance together to witness the Canucks’ 5-4 overtime loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Monday.

The Vancouver Canucks are listening to their options with feuding superstars, but Elias Pettersson may be the first to go.

More and more buzz continues to grow around the Vancouver Canucks and the futures of Elias Pettersson and J.T. Miller. And now, word came out that earlier this season the New York Rangers offered a deal to the Canucks surrounding Mika Zibanejad for J.

The Canucks rejected a trade that would have sent J.T. Miller to the New York Rangers in exchange for fellow forward Mika Zibanejad earlier this season, The Athletic’s Josh Yohe reported on Tuesday.

Winning solves everything and losing exposes the ugly things. It’s an accurate assessment to place the stress and strain of professional team sports into proper perspective. You win a lot, and everybody’s happy,

The Rangers reportedly tried to land J.T. Miller in a trade with the Canucks, but saw a one-for-one offer rebuffed.
