Vancouver Canucks linked to James Sheppard
It’s no secret a forward is on the Vancouver Canucks shopping list right now, and a new report has them linked to a veteran centre from Halifax.
According to Jeff Paterson of TSN1040, the Vancouver Canucks might be looking to bring in 28-year-old forward James Sheppard on a tryout basis.
Sheppard spent last season in Switzerland playing for the Kloten Flyers, where he had 25 points in 37 games.
Although those numbers scream out “sign me!”, he hasn’t been able to translate those stats to the NHL level, having never scored 10 goals in a season.
