Oliver Ekman-Larsson (through his agent Kevin Epp) has set a deadline for this Friday for a decision about his immediate future: it’s either a trade to the Canucks or Bruins, or he will remain with the Coyotes.
As well, I look at Jim Benning’s first-round drafting record.

OEL isn't that good. The Canucks management is mildly retarded. Barrie sucks too smh
How badly do you want Oliver Ekman-Larsson on the Canucks? And what type of letter grade would you give Jim Benning for his drafting in the first round?
They try to pressure him to expand his list. He replies Friday or no go. Awesome.
Signing OEL would end up being a worse contract than LE. Benning should be fired just for considering this…
Oel would be nice if the deal is right but id rather deal for a 1st round pick. Suppose to be a deep draft year.
Benning's track record for drafting isn't that great. Pettersson was obvious and so was Hughes. Virtannen pick is a disgrace! Ollie is a bust so far… Benning is a B- for drafting at best.
This has always been in the back of my mind and I don’t want to believe it, Podkolzin can turn into a bust, but the chances of that are pretty low, usually gise Pan out. But you never no again with young guys
Advantage Canucks… yes sir.
I cant see either team wanting an over paid defenceman who is hard to deal with. Especially in these times. Oliver go back to the desert and lose. Lol
Virtanen was insisted on by Benning, head scout Judd Brackett favoured Ehlers. The next year Brackett wanted Tkachuk, Benning walked up to the podium and took Juolevi. After that Benning deferred to Brackett's choice for three straight years, giving us Pettersson Hughes Podkolzin. Now please tell me why Judd Brackett and Trevor Linden aren't in the organization anymore? Ego battles with Jimbo is the correct answer.
OEL can stay in the desert where his career can dry up! Don't need an ultimatum like a shady high pressure car salesman pushing a Lemon!
