Jannik Hansen joins Jamie and Thomas to put the Canucks’ tough loss into perspective, reminding fans that the Dallas Stars are among the NHL’s elite but effort and pushback still matter. With the trade deadline approaching, the focus shifts to moving veterans for meaningful returns, not just flipping UFAs for late-round picks. Reports from Islanders beat writer Stefen Rosner suggest serious discussions between Vancouver and New York around Conor Garland possibly more than just a one-for-one deal. If the Canucks want to restock properly, this may be the type of swing they need to take.
