The Vancouver Canucks have candidates like Elias Pettersson and Brock Boeser who have been with the Canucks through thick and thin. However, the Canucks desperately need to rebuild, and to do so, they will likely be required to trade Pettersson and Boeser. 

The best course of action for the Canucks is to keep the captaincy vacant until they draft a player they believe will turn the franchise around, or one of their top youngsters such as Braeden Cootes, Caleb Malhotra, or others who are still to come.
