The Vancouver Canucks have conditionally acquired defenceman Keith Ballard and right wing prospect Victor Oreskovich from the Florida Panthers in exchange for forwards Steve Bernier, Michael Grabner, and Vancouver's 2010 first round draft pick (25th overall).

<Censored> this trade. Ballard is solid but Canucks overpaid. His contract is a bit big too.

The first rumor sounded fair then when Grabner was thrown in it swung in Florida's favour.

Exactly. Gillis is overvaluing Ballard. Oh well Canucks still has some forward prospects. I might start cheering for panthers cuz of grabner.
