Will the Canucks land Ryan Miller? That may be the biggest question.

The second biggest question is "how will Jim Benning address the Canucks' scoring issues? Yes, a lot of that will be improved under new coach Willie Desjardins, but last time I checked Nick Bonino replaced Ryan Kesler and / or the Canucks need another bonafide top 6 forward.

Other names linked to the Canucks lately and even last March: Dave Bolland, Michael Cammalleri, Tyler Myers, Jarome Iginla?

How about we get Miller and Stastny and call it a day? Who's with me? Maybe even Steve Ott.

Happy Canada Day! And to all of America and the rest of the world: get to work!
