Not trying to fit in
Vanek's on a 25 goal and 60 point pace.
If the Canucks offer to retain salary, he'd be available for just $1 million in caphit.
I think the team can get a lot more than a 2nd round pick for Vanek. He'd be the ideal acquisition for any team needing extra firepower to get into the playoffs, or scoring depth once in it.
Last year he got traded for a second - (someone correct me if I am wrong). Despite his pace not sure he would fetch more this year - I mean I would love if he did and if he keeps up this pace i could see a second and a 5th or something like that or perhaps straight up for a solid prospect and perhaps draftpick.
