As the surprise winners of the Pacific division this year, the Canucks have set themselves up for an actual run in the playoffs this year. Currently, they're slotted to face the Nashville Predators in the first round. It'll be an interesting matchup, but through the year the Canucks have proven to be the better team. Hronek himself has been a big part of the Canucks success this year. After being acquired from Detroit and playing with
Quinn Hughes, Hronek has put up an amazing career year of 5 goals and 48 points in 81 games. As an RFA at the end of this season, Hronek will be demanding a big raise from his current contract of $4.4M.
