The Vancouver Canucks' rebuild began months ago when they traded away Quinn Hughes.

They've already dealt Conor Garland and Tyler Myers before Friday's NHL trade deadline, too. The question remains as the rumor mill swirls whether Elias Pettersson, Evander Kane, Teddy Blueger or anyone else will be moved from the Canucks to a new team.

Vancouver is going to want to fully tank the rest of this season. They've loaded up on draft picks, and their own pick could end up the No. 1 spot in a strong NHL Draft class.

The Canucks gain nothing by winning the rest of the season. The best thing they can do is push the odds in their favor for the future.

Here's how they're doing that, or not, on deadline day.
