John Shannon joins S&P today to talk about the Canucks’ depth scorers stepping up, the Edmonton Oilers’ recent turnaround, if Nils Höglander is still a piece worth moving for a playoff rental, how Carson Soucy’s injury affects the team’s plans, Rick Tocchet’s rise to the top of the coaching ranks, Jim Rutherford’s extension, Patrick Roy’s hiring as the new Islanders head coach, Corey Perry signing in Edmonton, and a future extension for Patrik Allvin.

I wouldn't trade him, for he's still too young and showing too much upside/growth.
No!
He is not in the "absolutely not" category. There are ways to make a trade favourable for the Canucks with Hoglander in the deal. I don't know what that deal is, but I'd like to see what offers there are. Give me more rumours!
Of course you don't trade him. You need good players on cheap contracts if you want to compete in the playoffs
The show was way better when Wadden was the producer. Grady sucks.
He's on pace for 26 goals and has brought a breath of fresh air to the 4th line. He's someone who you can slot anywhere in the bottom 9, which is hard to find.
Hoglander is going to be a low to medium cost middle six during the oel buyout penalty.
Their principle chip is Kusmenko. At the trade deadline, he's a 39 goal scorer with most of his 5.5 million cap hit paid. Acquiring team could have him for two playoffs and a regular season for just over 5.5 million cap hit. Canucks could retain a portion of 5.5 million cap hit for a better return. Acquiring team could also flip Kusmenko at the draft.
Why do we have to talk trade because of the trade deadline? You fellas are suppose to be the experts, so when have trade line deals ever worked?? they don't that's when. The Canucks are in first place overall in the NHL with the team they have, so keep your top draft picks and top prospects. We have top end scoring, great depth forward scoring, above average D and a great goaltending tandem along with a pretty good coach. Stay the coarse and add a depth forward and or depth Dman if the deal is there. You guys are showing you know nothing about trade deadline success. It does not happen. The same insanity every season at this time of year. Look at the picks (future) the Leafs alone have given up in this insane quest. 4th pick and down for depth, otherwise stay the coarse this team is fine.
Take Hoglander off the trade market. This is the type of value contract you keep. His game is similar to Garland at a much lower cost.
It would have to be a helluva deal to get me on side with dealing Hoglander at this point.
Podz or Kuz I'd be open to trading
what really pisses me off is this was a canuck home game played on toronto's time line and we didn't have shorthouse and tomlison calling the game. i'm surprised the leafs didn't get to wear their blues and get last change.
If Hoglander was 29 i'd be OK trading him, but he's still young with lots of potential. I'd rather trade our late first than him.
24 1st round pick, Podkolzin, Kuzmenko (contract) for Ryan O'Reilly
Trading Hoglander would be a mistake
Trading Hoglander L take from John
Getting past Vegas will be tough. They make the Canucks look like a farm team.
Don't trade Hoglander he defines tenacity, sets the tone in practice and games. He reminds me of Rudy from the movies.
John you just added to the Canucks playoffs marketing department. White towels with “WHY NOT NOW! On the towels.
Bringing some rental in last year like the Rangers did with both Tarasenko and Kane disrupted the team's chemistry. There is no guarantee Lindholm or Guentzel who are rentals will give you instant success as displayed around the league. If the team is winning already without a 2nd line center, then adding top players like these expensive rentals is not really smart to do! Rather give someone within the organization like Bains and Raty a shot in the middle of the season and see if they can inject life into the 2nd line now. There is still time before the trading deadline to do this!
problem with going all in on this season.. is that vancouver is starving for reliable playoffs appearances. if this season is this great year, and then next year is back to being a 80 point team, that would be an absolute disaster in my mind.
He should be on the seco d line
Keep the HOG
Canucks should sign Shannon, THG, as a analyst. He watches every game in the league
