Breaking: At least one NHL confirmed to have had talks with Thomas Vanek!
Keystone Press

Early this week the agent for Thomas Vanek indicated that it would not be long before his client signed a new deal, and it appears that his prediction may have in fact been accurate. 

While there may be a number of teams currently interested in signing the offensive-minded forward, we now have confirmation that at least one National Hockey League franchise is considering the possibility of adding Vanek.

According to a report from TSN's Matthew Sekeres‏ the Vancouver Canucks have discussed a number of forwards including Thomas Vanek, and additionally he report that they have also extended two professional tryout offers, although he did not specify to which players those offers were made.

This would seemingly indicate that once again the Canucks will attempt to field the most competitive team possible rather than explore a potential rebuild.
