Vancouver Canucks Rumor: Talks with Forwards Hudler, Shipachyov Continue

Back at the IIHF World Championship, we listed three players active in the tournament that the Vancouver Canucks could target. One of them was Russian center Vadim Shipachyov. According to Shipachyov’s agent Petr Svoboda, the Canucks are still interested in Shipachyov and Jiri Hudler, another client of Svoboda’s.

Svoboda says Hudler could “sign today” which means he has concrete contract offers to sign. One of those offers seem to be from the Vancouver Canucks. So what would they get in Hudler?

Jiri Hudler is a 32-year-old forward who can play at center or on either wing.
