Canucks' Benning: "We're not looking to move Zack"
/Canucks GM Jim Benning was on Vancouver’s TSN 1040 on Thursday morning.
On how many calls he’s taken on Zack Kassian:
“We’ve talked to a few teams on Zack, but listen - we know that Zack’s a unique player because it’s hard to find players with size and with skill and the hands that he has, so we’re not looking to move Zack. We want to just keep working with him and keep getting him better and hopefully he turns out to be the player that we all think he can be.”
