In this episode, we discuss:

✅ The Veteran Dilemma: Why Höglander, at 25, is no longer just a "prospect" and what that means for his roster spot.
✅ The Podkolzin Comparison: Why Vasily Podkolzin’s success in Edmonton is a cautionary tale—but one the Canucks might have to ignore.
✅ The Roster Crunch: How the arrival of youngsters like Jonathan Lekkerimäki and Liam Öhgren makes Höglander’s $3 million cap hit a major hurdle.
✅ Trade Value: Would a 4th-round pick be enough, or is it "addition by subtraction" at this point?

The Canucks rebuild is moving into its next phase, and ice time is the most valuable investment they can make. Does Nils Höglander still earn that investment, or is a fresh start best for everyone involved?
