This NHL insider has just revealed that the Vancouver Canucks are taking calls about one of their star wingers with a potential trade on the horizon.

Elliotte Friedman Reveals The Canucks Are Shopping Kuzmenko

The Vancouver Canucks appear to have officially entered a new era, one that is being spearheaded by head coach Rick Tocchet. It appears the new era is working out for them too, with the Canucks near the top of the standings in Tocchets first full season with the team.

Now, it appears the Canucks are shopping Andrei Kuzmenko, one of their top scorers, as confirmed by Elliotte Friedman.

Friedman at the intermission says teams are calling the Canucks about Andrei Kuzmenko. Has 1 more year at $5.5M and has a partial no-trade.

Kuzmenko and Tocchet Rumored Not to Be On Same Page

Kuzmenko is a talented player, with a high skill ceiling. Last season, he scored 39 goals and 35 assists in his first in the NHL. However, this year, his production has waned, and many are saying that he and Tocchet are not on the same page. This could explain his drop in playing time and even being healthy scratched.

We will see if the Canucks pull the trigger on sending Kuzmenko out of Vancouver, or if they chose to keep him in order to develop him into Tocchet's systems.
