Well, even though they released what they had said was their lineup for the opening night of the season, the Canucks weren’t quite finished tinkering as they prepare to start the 2021-22 season Wednesday night, signing RW Alex Chiasson to a one year deal worth $750,000.
Chiasson gives the Canucks another piece of bottom six depth that can put the puck in the net, and given his play in the preseason, it’s nice to see that his hard work has paid off with a team-friendly deal that will allow him to possibly earn a re-sign for next year.
