The Vancouver Canucks have had one of the worst seasons in the NHL's Western Conference; they are now fourth worst in the standings after having their worst start since the 2014�15 season. Changes must be made.
The Canucks' general manager, Jim Rutherford, made it abundantly clear that these next five games will determine the future of the team's roster for the remainder of the season as the team boarded the plane and left Vancouver for their five-game road trip.
With one game left, the Canucks will play the Kings in Los Angeles on Friday after going 0-3 through their first three games on the road trip. They battled back to defeat the Buffalo Sabres 5-4, moving to a�1-3 record. Many Canucks players have been healthy scratches over the course of the previous four games on the road trip, and all signs point to deals happening soon.
All fingers are pointing to deals happening soon, as was previously said, according to TSN's Craig Button, that is true.

Craig Button stated the following:
''Horvat's done. It appears to me that
Bo Horvat, he's done and he's best served going somewhere else.'' The criticism that we've heard about Bo Horvat and the contract negotiations is that he's a player that's going to be on the move.''
Horvat is anticipated to be traded anytime Vancouver can find a partner ready to provide Vancouver with a valuable prospect and many first-round selections in order to help the Canucks' future.
Who is now ahead of Bo Horvat among skaters in terms of goals scored with 14 this season? Connor� McDavid, Horvat's trade value is at an all-time high as he is predicted to surpass his previous season high in points.
The time is here for Horvat to be traded, according to TSN's Craig Button. Horvat has a $5.5 million cap cost and will become an unrestricted free agent at the after the season. It is anticipated that he will hunt for a new home on the free agency market.
As in terms for the Flyers, this would make tons of sense, with the injuries of
Cam Atkinson and
Sean Couturier likely done for the season, the Flyers have the cap room as well as young assets to make a deal work.
