The Vancouver Canucks acquired forward Lukas Reichel from the Chicago Blackhawks for a 2027 fourth-round draft pick. Reichel, a 23-year-old 2020 first-round pick, has four points in five games this season and is expected to help address forward depth amid injuries. The Canucks praised his skill and work ethic, while the Blackhawks secured future draft capital as part of their rebuild. Reichel, who plays for Germany’s Olympic preliminary roster, has 58 career NHL points in 174 games.
