Canucks trade Daniel Sprong to Seattle

Daniel Sprong didn’t last 10 games with the Vancouver Canucks, who have traded him to the Seattle Kraken.

The Canucks are receiving “future considerations” in return.

A free agent signing with a lot of promise, Sprong clearly wasn’t a favourite of head coach Rick Tocchet. Sprong started the season on the second line, alongside Elias Pettersson. He even scored a goal in his first game, too.

But Sprong’s defensive play was atrocious. He had a pair of gaffes in his first two games that led to goals against. By the third game of the season, he was a healthy scratch.

More to come…
