Vancouver Canucks General Manager Patrik Allvin went out on Thursday night and made a deal to help the team on the blue line, acquiring Nikita Zadorov from the Calgary Flames in exchange for a pair of draft picks.

The cost to acquire Zadorov was a lot cheaper than many had been expecting and Allvin trading Anthony Beauvillier and his cap hit earlier in the week certainly helped make this deal come to fruition.

Now that they've acquired Nikita Zadorov, are the Canucks done adding to their blue line? It doesn't appear so.

The Canucks' interest in free agent defenceman Ethan Bear has been known for a long time now and with the 26-year-old gearing up for a return to game action after suffering an injury at the World Championship, it appears that Vancouver could still be a landing spot for him.

Rick Dhaliwal of 'Donnie & Dhali' says that Ethan Bear's contract may come in at one-year, $1 million, which is something the Canucks could definitely afford.

Bear, a native of Regina, Saskatchewan appeared in 61 games last season for the Vancouver Canucks, putting up 16 points (three goals, 13 assists), 25 penalty minutes and was a plus-six. At the end of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Canucks opted not to give Bear his qualifying offer, which made him an unrestricted free agent on July 1st.
