The Vancouver Canucks have traded

David Backes
Joel Edmundson

to the Chicago Backhawks for

Andrew Cogliano
Vyacheslav Voinov
Phillip Danault
2014 1st round draft pick (SJ)
2nd round pick pick owed to the Canucks by the 2014 draft

Had been receiving a bit of interest in Backes so I decided to put him on the trade block since I have 4 capable centers and figured trading him would give me a boost to my rebuild. Danault is a guy I had previously targeted but had no luck getting in San Jose, and am very happy to get him in this deal. He is a great defensive forward who is tearing it up right now in the QMJHL. Voinov is another guy that I really like, he played great last year in his rookie season and should see more playing time since Jack Johnson was traded to CBJ. Cogliano is a guy the sim loves seeing as he is going at a ppg right now. He still young and has some potential. And the picks speak for themselves.

Thanks for the quick, easy and fun deal Chicago.
