It would be our best hope at a Stanley Cup in my lifetime.
...what do we see in this team that the Canucks could potentially contend for a Cup in the next half decade?
Quinn Hughes.

Yeah, I get it.
Show me the mathematics where 1, plus minimal blue chip talent, plus few legit farm assets, plus limited in the show tradeable value equates to Cup in 5.
Maybe starting to compete legitametely in 5.
Been what?
14 years so far.

I saw more in last years team than this years team.
Despite the huge hit count, Sherwood doesn't scare anyone, he has replaced CoHog's points instead of adding to them. Heinenen is a plug and play plug. The injury loss of the only forward muscle, Joshua, is unfortunate and probably hurts the team more than most think.
There is no wildcard threat on D, Sure they'll scrum and push and shove, but no one to really stand up and fight back as Zedorov did.
The team for the most part are a bunch of pushovers.

Some will scrum and push and shove. Recall when an elf got crosschecked in the face, who was the first one to try to get to the McD drive-thru. Oiler teammate grabs at the interloper... however, an extra-terrestrial cruised slowly across your TV like he was Finding Nemo.
A highly-paid emotionless petunia floating across your screen through the middle of a scrum. Aqua paid $11.6M x 8 for a fish screensaver for the viewers at home.
Cole, Zadorov, Myers, Soucy in the same game were bigger deterrents than one can imagine...

You're on a roll bro.
Might be the best this week that one.

All good points RG.
Thanks, but my analysis was incomplete.
Kevin Bieksa on HNIC just detailed another reason why Quinn Hughes would be reluctant to re-sign in Vancouver, although he didn't take that angle.
