Here’s the blockbuster Canucks fans were waiting for.
With one hour left until the NHL trade deadline commences, it was announced that the Canucks have claimed Brad Richardson off of waivers from the Calgary Flames.
The 37-year-old veteran played one season for the Canucks back in 2014-15. Since then, he spent five seasons in Arizona and one in Nashville before signing with the Calgary Flames this offseason.
In 27 games with the Flames this year, Richardson has two goals and four points.
Richardson was an above-average fourth-liner when he played for the Canucks back in 2014-15.
