VANCOUVER -- Ryan Kesler will have a new left-winger on Vancouver's second line after the Canucks acquired David Booth in a four-player swap with the Florida Panthers on Saturday.

The Canucks also acquired minor-leaguer Steve Reinprecht along with a third-round draft pick in 2013.

Going the other way are NHL veterans Mikael Samuelsson and Marco Sturm.

Love this deal for the Canucks. They get some added fire power for their second line and they get it for next to nothing.

Florida is stupid. That's all there is to say

This has nothing to do with Booth's offensive skill. Florida used this as a salary dump. He wasn't producing in Florida, and his contract isn't exactly appealing. If Booth can show some offensive flare like he's capable, it's a good trade for Vancouver. With that said, it's not as bad as it looks.

I think he'll florish in Vancouver. He'll more than likely be playing with Kesler and I think those two will be a good together.
