The Vancouver Canucks are poised to fundamentally reimagine the direction of their franchise. It’s a process that could significantly alter the club’s short-term standing and priorities, and it nearly began rather dramatically over the weekend.

Vancouver Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin says he's open to making a trade — as long as the deal makes sense for the team.

Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin on Monday declined to address reports that forward J.T. Miller was nearly traded to the Rangers over the weekend.

There was momentum on J.T. Miller getting traded to the New York Rangers on Saturday, but the deal collapsed per NHL insider Elliotte Friedman. Miller was supposedly being held out of Saturday night's game against the Edmonton Oilers while some AHL players in the Rangers organization were scratched.

While details about a failed J.T. Miller trade with the Rangers filter out, another team is being linked to the Vancouver Canucks centre.

The Vancouver Canucks are at an impasse with star forwards J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson. Both players are amid deep cold spells inspired by an off-ice rift, resulting in plenty of trade rumors. The team took one step forward in figuring out its plan with the duo on Saturday when Miller was nearly held out of Vancouver’s lineup to support a trade to the New York Rangers,
