Carolina Sends Ethan Bear To Vancouver
2 years agoCarolina Hurricanes defenseman Ethan Bear was traded to the Vancouver Canucks on Friday along with depth forward Lane Pederson. The Hurricanes received a 2023 fifth-round draft pick and Carolina is retaining 18 percent of Bear's $2.2 million salary as part of the deal. Bear has been a healthy scratch for every game this season and Vancouver needed to bolster its blue line following a string of injuries, so it's a trade that should benefit all parties involved. Bear saw some success in the NHL a couple of seasons back in Edmonton when he had 21 points in 71 games, but he's managed to add just 22 points to his tally since then in 101 outings. He likely won't be making an impact in fantasy hockey.
