General Manager Mike Gillis and the Vancouver Canucks have reportedly bolstered their bottom six forward unit late Tuesday night by signing gritty forward Raffi Torres to a one year deal worth one million dollars.
Torres, known to many Canuck fans because of his lengthy stint with the Edmonton Oilers a couple years ago (a stint which saw him light up the Canucks repeatedly), split time with the Columbus Blue Jackets and Buffalo Sabres last year, scoring 19 goals and adding 17 assists for 36 points.
He is known as a gritty winger who plays a physical game, something the Canucks have been looking to add since getting ousted by a more mature, physical Chicago team in last year's 2nd round of the playoffs.
