Saturday's impressive Canucks victory felt more like a fun last ride for a once-promising core that seems bound for a breakup.

J.T. Miller spoke on his uncertain Vancouver Canucks future after a day which saw his name involved in many trade rumours.

The Canucks had been "working hard" to find a trade partner for Miller, with CHEK’s Rick Dhaliwal reporting increased activity around the 31-year-old earlier that day. Shortly after Dhaliwal's post on X, Friedman confirmed during "Saturday Headlines" that a trade involving Miller had collapsed at the last minute, according to his information.

Head coach Todd Golden has also stayed on the sideline after he was accused of sexual harassment in a Title IX complaint. Kansas City topped Houston 27-19 in a Week 16 regular-season meeting just before Christmas. The Huskies, who were down 35-28 at the half, scraped through the second half but fell short in yet another unranked upset.

The Vancouver Canucks continue to watch their season slip away with just two wins since returning from the Christmas break. Even worse, the Canucks have only found the win column three times in their last 14 games.

With the ongoing drama in the Vancouver Canucks' locker room, J.T. Miller was compared to former toxic Winnipeg Jets captain Blake Wheeler.

Over the past week and a half, Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin and director of player personnel Scott Young took in a series of World Junior games in Ottawa, watched Vancouver’s AHL affiliate in Laval and were in attendance together to witness the Canucks’ 5-4 overtime loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Monday.

Since the Edmonton Oilers and the Vancouver Canucks met in the postseason last spring, they have been heading in the opposite direction.

J.T. Miller's name is in the rumour mill again. Given the way he and his Vancouver Canucks teammates played Thursday, that's not a surprise.

Devils general manager Tom Fitzgerald threw cold water on recent trade rumors around Canucks star J.T. Miller.

Canucks captain Quinn Hughes had a sobering take on the struggles of his teammates after their 5-1 loss to the Kings.
