Rumors: Canucks, Kings and Canadiens

On the Vancouver Canucks …

  • Matthew Sekeres: Canucks GM Jim Benning said he’s getting calls daily on trade possibilities. Benning also acknowledged that he is one of the most active GMs making calls.
  • Matthew Sekeres: Benning on the trade deadline: “Continue to see where we’re at going into deadline.” He said that Radim Vrbata and Dan Hamhuis are a “big part of our team”
  • Chris Nichols of Today’s Slapshot: Bob McKenzie on TSN 1050 on Milan Lucic and if he’d want to sign with the Canucks if he hits the open market this offseason given where the team is right now.

    “It’s hard to say. That’s the old deciding… at what cost do you want to play in your hometown. And again, where does he fit for Vancouver. They’d have to see how it works for them. But because he’s a hometown guy, who in the past has sort of wondered aloud what it would be like to play in his hometown, you at least throw it on the table as a consideration. I mean, hey listen – you’re an unrestricted free agent. If you get to that, the world is your oyster. You get to go anywhere you want, who wants you.”

On the Los Angeles Kings …

  • Chris Nichols of Today’s Slapshot: Bob McKenzie on TSN 1050 on Milan Lucic’s future with the Kings.

    “Well, I think they’d like to try and get him signed. Not necessarily easy, but not impossible either. Sometimes you’ve got to make some hard decisions.

    “… Lucic is a guy – I think the general indication has been, ‘Hey, we’re interested in having you back.’ He’s a guy that can be a difference-maker. But in order to do that, they may have to move some bodies around in the off-season.”

On the Montreal Canadiens …

  • Habs Links: Pierre LeBrun on TSN 690 on Canadiens head coach Michel Therrien: “My sense of the situation is he’s safe right now.”
  • Tony Marinaro: “Many believe Michel Therrien will be relieved of his duties. Has he lost the room? NO! Do I believe this terrible slump is all on him? NO!”
