The Vancouver Canucks have signed defenceman Tucker Poolman to a four-year deal, according to a report from Daily Faceoff’s Frank Seravalli.
Poolman, 28, tallied one assist through 39 games last season as a member of the Jets.
The 6’2 defenceman posted less than spectacular underlying numbers in a third-pairing role.
Tucker Poolman, signed 4x$2.5M by VAN, has struggled quite a bit in his short NHL career. Often played elevated minutes this season. #Canucks
More to come.
