Hate it or Love it? Canucks fan on the Vegas Golden Knights (Babcock + Larkin Talk)

In today's Locked On Canucks episode, we break down a Pacific Division that somehow keeps getting crazier.

Just when Canucks fans thought the offseason would slow down, rumors are swirling that Mike Babcock could be headed to Edmonton, potentially giving the Oilers one of the most controversial coaching hires in recent NHL history. If that happens, the pressure in the Pacific only gets higher.

At the same time, Dylan Larkin's reported trade request is shaking up the NHL landscape. Whenever a captain and franchise cornerstone becomes available, every contender starts asking the same question: can we get involved? And what does it mean for teams like Vancouver that are still trying to climb back into the

Stanley Cup conversation?

Meanwhile, the Stanley Cup Final continues to provide a blueprint for success. The teams still standing have identity, depth, structure, and conviction. They know exactly who they are. That's the lesson Canucks fans are watching unfold in real time. Whether it's Vegas pushing for another championship or the East continuing to produce elite contenders, the gap between good teams and great teams is becoming obvious.
