Canucks to announce the addition of a six foot five giant defenseman?

According to Ben Lypka, the Canucks have set their eyes on the undrafted 26-year-old Tim Henriksen. Per his intel, the Canucks were hoping to have the Swede on their AHL roster.

6 foot 5 and 214 pounds, he indeed doesn't lack potential. The giant defenseman most recently played in Asia and Sweden in two of their professional league. Friends with two of the Canucks' top Swedes, Nils Hoglander and Elias Pettersson, he would surely be an acquisition coming out of the left field.

The player has even made some changes to his Instagram, citing Vancouver as one of his places of residence. Could it mean he'd be joining the Canucks' affiliate? Perhaps a two-way deal between the Kalamazoo K-Wings and the Abbotsford Canucks?

Well, keep an eye out on the upcoming days, a player with that much size always has an intrigue to it, and with the Canucks' knack for development, they could very try and make something out of him.

While he may not have what it takes to be an NHLer right at this moment, would it be worth it for the Canucks to try and develop him even though his already 26?
