Statement regarding Ilya Safonov Vancouver Canucks NHL contract termination and return to KHL:
Ilya valued his time with the Canucks organization and built strong relationships with the coaching and development staff in Abbotsford. While he did not reach his goal of playing in the NHL, he leaves grateful for the opportunity and will always look back on his time in Vancouver fondly. He is returning to the KHL and looks forward to competing against top players from Russia, Canada, the United States and beyond, including former Canuck Evander Kane. #WeAreGoldStar!
Both #Flames and #Canucks Twitter are asking,
First determine if this drama is more Tocchett or Michkov.
If you think it’s Tocchett that is the problem, find out how you can support him.
Third, ask yourself what his next contract is.Because it will be expensive.
Fourth, ask yourself if he is better than what you could draft in the top 5 in 27.
If you can handle all four, then you do it
Michkov is an unbelievable talent. But there are also questions,But it would take a lot of more than internet mock trades to get him.
Should the #Flames make a trade for Matvei Michkov?
He is a 5'10, 172 pound winger who will be 22 in less than a month.
He's put up 63 and 51 points in his first two years in the NHL. He's on pace to put up 59 points this season.

Following up on this Kevin Weekes bombshell, I’ve been told that Matvei Michkov has not formally requested a trade from the Flyers.
In fact, this report was news to the Flyers front office.
**Breaking News** 🚨 📰
From multiple league sources, with the Flyers unimpressive start and internal turmoil, Michkov would likely want a new start elsewhere. He's in the last year of his contract & is a prime trade candidate moving forward. #HockeyX

Ilya Safonov has left the Abbotsford Canucks.
He was acquired in a trade with Chicago last June.
Agent Dan Milstein has confirmed Safonov left.
I’m not surprised

Another trade that makes a lot of sense.
You can debate Connor Hellebuyck decision to leave the Jets.
I hope we can agree that online harassment and online threats to him and his family are not ok.
Who’s Cameron Crotty?
Glad you asked #Canucks
3rd round pick of Arizona in 2017.
27 year old right shot D
6’3 212
11 games. 1 Assist 12:34 Average Ice time.
Played with Sens and Wild.
Probably destined for Abby. But could get a look with the big club.

#Canucks 3rd period thoughts.
Good push. But too little too late.
Even though they scored a powerplay goal, the powerplay was disconnected all night.
I do believe that Jonathan Lekkermaki will score important goals in his career. He is developing a clutch gene.
I’ll do a deeper dive tomorrow on @HockeyHStove
#Canucks second period thoughts.
This reminds me of the Detroit game.
Six shots on goal on a team playing back to back isn’t a good look.
This is the fourth back to back for the Flyers. Canucks need to pounce.

Thanks @Trevor_Neufeld
Great piece from Kevin. With a firm grip on last place, how do the Canucks compare to the San Jose’s rock bottom era?

#Canucks first period thoughts.
Sloppy first and last five minutes: They are lucky they aren’t down 2-0.
Did like D-Petey’s physical presence against Porter Martone.
Merilianen has been sharp.
