The Canucks and Avalanche made a trade

The Vancouver Canucks traded injured defenseman Tucker Poolman with $500,000 of his $2.5 million retained, and a 2025 fourth-round pick to the Colorado Avalanche for defenseman Erik Brannstrom.

Puck Pedia: “By making trade, #Canucks no longer need to use LTIR. They effectively took $900K Brannstrom + $500K retained on Poolman vs potentially Poolman on LTIR, but now are under cap & can accrue space. They have $1.19M Proj Space with 23 active (12F/8D/3G)”
