Canucks Sign Kevin Lankinen

The biggest story of the day happened off the ice as Vancouver signed goaltender Kevin Lankinen to a one-year, $875,000 contract. Lankinen spent last season with the Nashville Predators, posting an 11-6 record and a .908 save percentage in 24 games. The 29-year-old is expected to join the team on Monday and could feature as early as Tuesday when the Canucks open their preseason schedule against the Seattle Kraken.

Ty Young And Dylan Ferguson Switch Groups

Vancouver made one notable switch among the practice groups on Saturday, promoting replacing Dylan Ferguson with Ty Young in Group B. The promotion to Group B for Young meant he had the opportunity to face shots from J.T. Miller, Brock Boeser and Quinn Hughes rather than the group of prospects that make up Group C. Young, who is projected to make the jump to pro this year, went 23-11-0 with the Prince George Cougars of the WHL last season and ranks sixth all-time for wins in franchise history.
