The Vancouver Canucks completely cleaned house in terms of their leadership as the team fired general manager Jim Benning and head coach Travis Green.

If that wasn't enough drama, the Philadelphia Flyers fired head coach Alain Vigneault after losing their eighth consecutive game last Sunday.

The Canucks may have one of the worst records in the Western Conference, but the franchise does have young building blocks in Elias Pettersson , Quinn Hughes , and Bo Horvat .

As much as it pains me as a Flyers fan, the team should've moved captain Claude Giroux two or three years ago when his value was still fairly high.

It might be time to blow up the roster and begin to build around guys like defenseman Ivan Provorov , forward Joel Farabee , and goaltender Carter Hart (if he proves he's the netminder of the future).

On top of that, the team lost star forwards William Karlsson , Max Pacioretty , and Mark Stone for significant periods, but the trio is back in the fold.
