Forward Anthony Beauvillier, who was traded to the Vancouver Canucks on Monday, told reporters that having the chance to start from scratch with everyone is ‘exciting’
Joining a new team amid a tidal wave of change doesn’t intimidate newly minted Vancouver Canucks forward Anthony Beauvillier., dealing captain Bo Horvat to the New York Islanders for Beauvillier, prospect Aatu Raty and a protected first-round pick in this summer’s NHL entry draft.New personnel – both on the ice and behind the bench – represent a fresh opportunity, Beauvillier said.
“I feel like I had some good years to start and it’s kind of slowed down in the last few seasons,” Beauvillier said of his NHL career. “I feel like my numbers, they don’t really speak for the way I’ve been playing this year. I’ve had a lot of opportunities and just haven’t really found the back of the net.”
“Him texting me that I could probably take his old bedroom in Vancouver is pretty funny,” Beauvillier said. “But it’s been a hell of a ride with him and he’s going to stay one of my best friends forever.” The six-foot-two, 190-pound forward from Oulunsalo, Finland, has two goals in 12 games this season – including one against the Canucks on Jan. 3.
