Canucks get Cory Conacher from Isles organization in exchange for Dustin Jeffrey

[foshizzle11]

good support for their AHL team...I wonder if he will make it in the NHL, he is only 25.

I wonder what they gave up.

[CroFlames]

Is this a good trade???

Conacher was able to score with St.Louis and Stamkos.

Could you throw him on the Sedins wing? Might be able to produce with them setting him up and the sheltered offensive minutes they get.

[Resolute 14]

Conacher was able to score for a very short period of time with St. Louis and Stamkos. He had already fallen off the cliff when Ottawa failed to do its homework. I doubt he does much better with the Sedins. Especially since they probably don't want to take Vrbata off that line.

Cory Conacher has been told to report to Utica. #Canucks

[d_phaneuf]

guessing AHL trade, Utica is strong this year so maybe a push for the playoffs there

Hmmmm... the 27 year old, 6'1", 205 lbs Utica Comets top scorer (center) for 25 year old, 5'8", 180 lbs Cory Conacher...?

Jeffrey
AHL Comets GP 49 G 17 A 24 P 41

Conacher
NHL Islanders GP 15 G 1 A 2 P 3
AHL Tigers GP 28 G 5 A 17 P 22

Seems like a strange trade.
