The Vancouver Canucks acquired forward Lukas Reichel from the Chicago Blackhawks on Friday for a fourth-round pick in the 2027 NHL draft.

The pick originally belonged to Chicago and was reacquired by Vancouver earlier this year.

Reichel had two goals and two assists in five games with the Blackhawks this season.

The 23-year-old German winger has 58 points in 174 career NHL games.

He’s also produced 116 points in 121 AHL games with the Rockford IceHogs.

Reichel was a first-round pick, 17th overall, by Chicago in the 2020 draft.
