Canucks move Pronger
2011-12-23In a surprising move the Canucks have sent top dman Chris Pronger to the Phoenix Coyotes along with a couple draft picks for Kyle Cumiskey, Prospect Anton Rodin and a 1st Round Pick in the 2013 draft. With Pronger scheduled to be a ufa at season's end the Canucks did not believe they could retain his rights so they moved him for a decent return. In the short term this creates a hole on the Canucks blue line. Look for the Canucks to add another top 4 dman in the new future.
