May involve Ryan Spooner going the other way.

Sounds right, move Talbot for nothing to save some cap space to fit in Sekera and then pick up Gagner with the available cap space.

If true then poor Sam Gagner as Purgatory exists and he’s in it.

I feel so sorry for Gagner. Imagine the relief of finally getting to leave that dumpster fire only to be tossed right back in after you had finally purged it from your memory

Hasn't he been in the minors, anyway? ... the Canucks have many injuries right now, and he's still not with the team, I'm assuming this means he's been not very good in the AHL, though I haven't checked any stats.
EDIT : 37 pts in 43 games... not too bad, I guess teh Canucks are simply favouring calling up younger guys like Adam Gaudette and Zack MacEwen (both guys actually have similar PPG stats to Gagner, so it makes sense).

Spooner is a good roll of the dice for Vancouver...
if they can get the player he was in Boston, it'd be hysterical

has to be for Spooner - basically cap-neutral

Even if he's putting up points he is possibly the worst player in the league defensively.

Geez, you'd think any player that escaped from Edmonton would have a no Edmonton clause in their next contract.
Where was his agent on that one?

VAN trades Sam Gagner to EDM for Ryan Spooner. Even up. No salary retained.

What an odd deal , though i suspect that we hear a reason for it afterwards.

Canucks are dealing with injuries, at the moment... and need scoring,overall... I'd say that's a worthwhile risk for them, as Gagner wasn't going to see the lineup again, anyway.

So really it's Eberle for Gagner.
