Jamie Dodd is joined by Landon Ferraro live from the Canucks Alumni golf tournament. They discuss and deliberate the future of ice time on the Canucks, what's already taken up by existing players and what remains to be allocated. They debate whether trading certain assets makes sense, and what the return would have to be to say yes.
