Well, Flames didn't qualify what, 9 guys? Need some bodies to fill the farm team. Decent AHL point producer, good hockey sense and work ethic. No problems with this at all. Cost, free vs a 2nd round pick. Stupid Canucks

Former #Canucks F Linden Vey expected to sign a one-year deal with the #Flames, per source.

Wow, I didn't realize how close Jooris and Vey were in so many categories. So, if nothing else, the Flames basically get the same player who's a year younger.

Close in a lot of categories but I would say they play different styles (banger vs playmaker).

The Heat had a lot of their roster depleted when Agostino, Grant, etc walked, so I'm glad we brought in help. Plus Vey showed some promise for the Kings. Who knows, maybe with some of that drama behind him he's ready to get back into it

Maybe Jooris wasn't willing to sign a two way?

Is it too late to scrap the Stampede Parade and have a preemptive Stanley Cup parade this week?

Vey has more orange, but I like Jooris' commitment to raising his blue.

Did I read that right?

Makes sense. Stockton needs a legitimate AHL 2C if Hamilton is promoted to the NHL club.

Klimchuk-Vey-Poirier

It's not official until the team says it's official.

For what this kid has had to endure over the last few years, and watching Canucks fans about face once they heard his story, I highly doubt it.

Really, people just need to let this kid be and let the brass take care of his career path.
