Jonathan Lekkerimäki: Trade Chip or Future Star for the Canucks?

Jonathan Lekkerimäki’s stock has never been higher — but will he wear a Canucks jersey long-term, or will he be the key piece in a blockbuster trade? In this episode of Locked On Canucks, we break down Vancouver’s most intriguing young winger and the two drastically different paths ahead.

We explore:

🔥 Why Lekkerimäki’s shot and offensive instincts could make him the best winger on the

Canucks within two years

🔥 How his development overseas has boosted his trade value to contender-level

🔥 The risk/reward of cashing in on his potential now for immediate help

🔥 Comparable NHL players who followed both paths — star wingers vs. trade bait

Whether he’s lighting it up in blue and green or packaged for a top-line center, Lekkerimäki could be the swing piece that shapes the Canucks’ next five seasons.
