Rumor

RUMOR - As Dino Kessler (Blick) reports, Yannick Weber is likely to be offered a one-way contract by the Vancouver Canucks. They still have time to make a qualifying offer until June 30. Otherwise, Weber will hit the market as UFA on July 1.

The 25-year-old defender signed with Vancouver prior to this season, but struggled to get ice time at the NHL level. He averaged only 11:54 TOI in 49 games and got sent down to their AHL affiliate Utica Comets for a stretch of seven games. After that, his game with the Canucks vastly improved. Weber's goal is to stay in North America.
