So, the Canucks aren't perfect. When have they been? But after an emotional and revealing 10 days, they're a lot less imperfect than they used to be.

With a third straight win on Friday, the Canucks look to have been not defeated by the blockbuster Quinn Hughes trade, but refocused and re-energized by it. 

For the past year, the Wild seemed intent on getting rid of Marco Rossi and the Canucks seemed like the team trying to get him. Finally playing for a side that wants him, Rossi is hoping to make good on that belief, Iain MacIntyre writes.

There were no standings ovations for Zeev Buium like there were for Quinn Hughes in Minnesota on Sunday, but the buzz was felt all the same, particularly within the Canucks organization. Iain MacIntyre has the story following Buium's Canucks debut.

A weekend that started with goodbye, ended with hello to a new era as the Canucks beat the Devils in their first game since trading away Quinn Hughes. Iain MacIntyre has the story on Vancouver's win and how the team is "building something here."

Friday’s trade starkly reinforced the organization’s failure over six years and two managerial regimes to build a lasting contender around a generational defenceman like Hughes.
