BREAKING | Canucks about to announce a trade
The announcement has not yet been made, but the Canucks have traded the winger Anthony Beauvillier.
The reports suggest that the Canucks will be acquiring a 5th Round Pick and they will not be retaining any salarythe Hawks will be taking his full $4.15M cap hit.
Beauvillier had a slow start to the season, the winger had managed 8 points through 22 games. This opens up a better opportunity for a youngster like Nols Hoglander, but also cap room for another trade or signing (Ethan Bear).
UPDATE: The Canucks official announcement came through:
