Canucks management's next steps with their star centers are crucial in the wake of Friday's three-team blockbuster.

Vancouver Canucks president of hockey operations Jim Rutherford was blunt when talking about the feud between J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson. He essentially confirmed that the only solution is to trade one or both of these talented forwards.

Speaking with Gary Mason of The Globe and Mail, Rutherford acknowledged the quarrel between Miller and Pettersson and elaborated on the difficult situation it puts the Canucks in.

The Vancouver Canucks still have J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson on their team despite the trade rumors and speculation continuing to generate.
