Wake With Elias: Reid Boucher reportedly close to signing with KHL team

Once upon a time, a young chap wrote about how the Canucks needed Reid Boucher and Anton Rodin in the line-up.

Ah, old takes are so much fun in retrospect.

Now that you’ve had your morning laugh, here are some of the Canucks news and notes for the day.

  • The news of the day (although not official at the time of writing) is that Reid Boucher is close to signing a one-year-deal with Omsk Avangard of the KHL.

So as you can see from the intrepid reporting done by Ben Birnell and Rick Dhaliwal, Boucher seems like he’s on the verge of signing in the KHL, although nothing is official at this time.
