In the past week, NHL insiders Elliotte Friedman of TSN, Frank Seravalli of Daily Faceoff and Chris Johnston of The Athletic are all discussing the possibility of Vancouver trading superstar center Elias Pettersson — the leading scorer of the 2017 NHL Draft.

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

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 idea of seeing Elias Pettersson in the Montreal Canadiens uniform is really amazing, but it seems quite complicated for the Habs. At 26 years old, Pettersson is a solid player with 440 points in 441 career games. Imagine how he would transform the Habs offense. The problem here: the price.

The Vancouver Canucks are currently missing their top two defencemen, Quinn Hughes and Filip Hronek. Since the beginning of the season, the Canucks defensive depth has been a concern with a lack of true top four defencemen and puck movers on the backend.

Vancouver Canucks star Elias Pettersson spoke out amid swirling trade rumors and questions about his performance this season for the first time since suffering a pre-holiday-break injury.

The Vancouver Canucks have reportedly already listened to trade offers for JT Miller and Elias Pettersson this season.
