VANCOUVER CANUCKS TRADE BUZZ: ALLVIN’S NEXT MOVE + QUINN HUGHES & JACK ROSLOVIC UPDATE

[Music] So, we are talking about the Vancouver Conucks and what their plans seem to be courtesy of what David Pota had to say yesterday on the Hello Hockey Show. Now, we did just recently talk about this same programming in a video literally two hours ago. We brought up Edmonton Sports Talk and of course the Hello Hockey Show programming which featured David Pñota on the program yesterday. The link is going to be in the description if you want to watch the YouTube stream of the broadcast. But courtesy of our very amazing Vancouver Connects News Summaries on Twitter, we have ourselves the summary as to what the Fourth Period’s lead insider went out there and said. There are some tidbits about the Vancouver Conucks and I wanted to dive into them here. It’s a pretty simple update. In fact, we’re using the same screenshots from the last video, but this is what Penota said about the Vancouver Conucks. He thinks that they have started or are going to start looking for a middle six forward. The Ganucks have started poking around and Penota thinks this will escalate a little bit and he also feels that the questioning of Quinn Hughes’s future is media and fan driven. Now, middle six forward, what exactly could that mean? Where could the Vancouver Canucks be looking? And what exactly is this role going to be? Well, I think for a lot of Kucks fans listening to this, you’re probably going to assume and fill in the dots that maybe if Neil’s Hoglander takes a little bit of a while to come back, that would probably incite the Vancouver Conucks to wanting to acquire a middle six forward. You can talk about some potential replacements in that roster spot if Hoglander were to be out for a significant period. But ultimately, just thinking about the options here, yes, you have some Abbottzford guys that will challenge for spots, and they’ll continue to challenge for spots as the preseason goes on. We saw the great chemistry of Max Sassin, Arch Deep Baines, and Lionus Carlson. Those guys are so good together. And we also saw some other names really put themselves on the map throughout this preseason, like Braden Coots, for example. But you can’t absolutely guarantee that any of these guys would be proper fits to open up the season with the Vancouver Conucks, at least any more so than any sort of a name you could get in the free agent market or in the trade market. If the Vancouver Conucks find themselves a pretty solid middle six option that’s available and that’s at a price that they’re willing to pay, especially if the guy’s NHL caliber, it’s like, okay, that technically would be a better fit for the team than a Baines or Coots even. Who knows if Coots ends up making the team regardless of Neils Hoglander’s injury situation, but the Vancouver Conucks looking for any sort of middle six forward support does start to get interesting when you acknowledge the spot that has been opened up by Hoglander. This was kind of the crux of the Vancouver Conucks, of course, from last year and beyond. Injuries. If the Vancouver Conucks stayed healthy, you get yourselves a season like you had in 2024 where everybody was essentially at their best and the team forced themselves to number one in the Pacific. But Vancouver could be exercising their option for caution at this point and debatably they could be looking for some more role players to fill out the lineup. Now later on in the same David Penota hit, he goes out there and talks about Jack Rosik, how the player is looking at his options, but he is still looking for term. Rick Dollywal was on Donnie and Dolly last week talking about how Rosvic really screwed himself over in negotiations, how he misread the market and thought that he’d be able to get a lot more because he overperformed the most previously completed campaign. Now, unfortunately, NHL teams did not end up biting on what it is Jack Rosik was selling. And now the guy was getting PTO offers and he was turning them down because he wants term, he wants money, he wants that security, nobody’s going to give it to him. But now the question is, if Neils Hoglander is out for a while, do the Vancouver Conucks circle back on Jack Rosik and say, “Hey, you can play wing. We want somebody to be able to contribute and do stuff in our middle six. Would that not be a fit here in Vancouver? Do you think you could come over to our team? Now, there was an ensuing discussion on the Twitter response by Kucks News Summaries. Ivy Arunan went out there and asks, “A middle six forward? Isn’t Rosik a middle six forward?” Kucks new summary says he’s really top six or bust at this point. And if you’re going to choose between one of those two options, top six or bust, I think saying bust is a little bit more helpful when describing the way that Jack Rosik plays because yes, it’s true the guy can provide offense. He can be a meaningful contributor like he was last season. You just don’t know what kind of version you’re getting of RosC night in and night out. He can be the streakiest guy at times and the most inconsistent who does happen to have the skill set to produce points and actually do positive things for his hockey team. It’s why it’s so frustrating when you see him out there not doing that and he ends up getting punished with lesser contracts and lower ice time because of it. It’s a hard job being an inconsistent player in the National Hockey League because you got to keep on changing the way you do your business. Now, for Rosik, does that mean that he’s automatically disqualified from Vancouver’s middle six forward search? I don’t know. But he is one of the options and I’d say he’s a lot more NHL projectable than assassin or a Baines, even a Braden Coots at this point. Coots is great. It’s just he’s so young. You have to ask yourself, do you really want to put him in the NHL at this point in his young career? I could understand totally if Conucks fans are thinking, “Yes, he was fantastic, but please send him down. Don’t make the same mistake that the Canucks did with McCann and Veran like they did a decade ago. Rush these guys into the National Hockey League, ruined their development and inevitably had them pan out as not Vancouver Canucks’s top talents. Macan became a talent elsewhere and Jake Vertan is nowhere to be seen in this city. With that being said though, I want you to let me know your thoughts in the comment section below. What other names do you think are possible Vancouver Canucks targets to get in their middle six assuming Niels Hoglander is out for a while? Is the Hoglander injury the biggest reason you think the Canucks are going out there and doing this or do you think they would have been able to do this even if Hoglander was still in the lineup? You know, there are some extra spots that are up for grabs slightly. We don’t necessarily know who is going to center the third or fourth line. Is it going to be Rotube? Is it going to be Bluger? The final left wing spot on the fourth line is also up for grabs if you don’t want to just pencil Sassin in there. And now with Hoglander out of the mix, too, it’s going to become really interesting to see where the Vancouver Conucks take their search. And I just wanted to also talk about this at the very end of the video because we did see some comments from Penota about the Quinn Hughes situation. That is uh probably true, right? Probably it is like the fact that Quinn Hughes is so gosh darn talented and he happens to always be tossed into these conversations. A lot of it is the media. Come on, man. And because the media talks about it, the players respond to it, which leads to the fans reading about it, and then people start talking about it even more, and the media ends up getting involved even more. It is just an endless cycle of Vancouver drama around the best player this team has had in a very long time. And so now I want you to let me know your thoughts in the comment section below. How do you feel about all of these situations? Vancouver’s middle six forward search, Jack Rosik being in there, and Quinn Hughes speculation.
