Miller the Canucks lost key forward and center depth leaving Elias Pettersson with much more pressure on his shoulders. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/BigHeadHcky/status/1901333230802112678'><div style='border:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-radius:10px;padding:20px;width:300px;'>Loading from Twitter ...</div></a></blockquote></div> While Pettersson has played better as of late there is a clear need for the Canucks to add talent up front especially with the <a href='https://www.hockeylatest.com/nhl-team/vancouver-canucks/vancouver-canucks-linked-to-a-trio-of-star-wingers-to-replace-brock-boeser-in-free-agency' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'> looming free agency of Brock Boeser.</a> Things took an even worse turn for the forwards after newly acquired center Filip Chytil suffered yet another concussion. <div align='center' class='pl20 pr20'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/BR_OpenIce/status/1901397886639714535'><div style='border:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-radius:10px;padding:20px;width:300px;'>Loading from Twitter ...</div></a></blockquote></div> This afternoon Canucks GM Patrik Allvin spoke to the media and was asked what he expects to be the biggest priority for the team to address first when the offseason begins. <h3>Patrik Allvin Confirms Adding Forward Talent Is Top Priority</h3> During the interview Allvin conducted by Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic Allvin confirmed that center in particular will be a main priority to upgrade significantly whether it be through free agency or trade.
