Canucks Acquire Yan Stastny In Exchange for Pierre-Cedric Labrie
Vancouver, B.C. – Vancouver Canucks President and General Manager Mike Gillis announced today that the Canucks have acquired centre Yan Stastny in exchange for left wing Pierre-Cedric Labrie from the St. Louis Blues. Stastny will report to Manitoba.

Stastny, 27, has played in 91 career NHL games with the St. Louis Blues, Boston Bruins and Edmonton Oilers. He has registered 16 points (6-10-16) and 58 penalty minutes. In 49 games this season with the Peoria Rivermen of the AHL, he has registered 27 points (10-17-27) and 51 penalty minutes. The 6’0”, 192-pound centreman played for Team USA in the 2005 IIHF World Championships.

Born in Quebec City, Quebec, Stastny was originally selected in the eighth round, 259th overall by the Boston Bruins in the 2002 NHL Entry Draft.

Labrie is a guy with some grit currently playing for Manitoba in the AHL. This was nothing more, really, than a minor league trade.

He got in a couple scraps in the pre-season and is a big body, but thats all I know about him too! Purely a depth move for both organizations, thats for sure.

Still waiting for the Canucks to add a d-man.

This replaces the injured Alexandre Bolduc as our reliable call-up. Depth move, nothing more.

Pierre-Cedric Labrie is actually a pretty tough guy. He's really coming into his own this season and has had several impressive wins.

I concur with the post above...
He's a pretty good fighter (not in the super heavy class or anything like that)...

If he can skate well enough, he could be a useful 4th line energy guy, who is a decent fighter.

But, I have no idea what kind of wheels he has. Both guys here are marginal prospects at best.

This is more about getting Manitoba some help than it is about getting Vancouver help.

from Moose Side I hate this trade, Maxwell was already beaten up tons of time this season and now the Moose lost the only help they had for him in Labrie.
