Eriksson Signs 6-Year Deal With Canucks

Loui Eriksson has signed a six year contract with the Vancouver Canucks according to Pierre LeBrun.

Eriksson’s deal is reportedly for $36 million and will be for $6 million annually.  He played in all 82 games for the Bs last season and scored 30 goals and had 33 assists.  Eriksson came to Boston as the main trade piece that sent Tyler Seguin to the Dallas Stars.

Boston was one of the teams vying for Eriksson’s services, but was unable to come close on terms according to a report.  The Bs also recently signed Torey Krug to a four year extension and released Dennis Seidenberg.
