The Vancouver Canucks acquired defenseman Erik Brannstrom from the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday, sending defenseman Tucker Poolman and a fourth-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft in exchange.

Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin said his team will retain 20 percent of the salary of Poolman, who is scheduled to earn $3 million this season in the final year of a four-year, $10 million deal signed in 2021.
