The trade was good work for the Canucks, they needed a solid #2 in nets; but I hoped to see Silovs get a chance.
They move out part of their cap constraints and winger glut.
In the bigger picture I am higher on Soucy than most but the pairings are really awkward in Vancouver. They need Cole or Soucy to be a 1D on his offhand or for Meyers to have a resurgence. Hughes-Hronek as top pair would not be good defensively and removes one of them from bring a primary puck carrier.
