Latest Fantasy Rumors

Contract negotiations picking up

DVancouver Canucks Minors

March 27, 2025

Willander and the Canucks are reportedly close to signing an entry-level contract that would see the defenseman join the team this season, Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects reports Thursday.

ANALYSIS
As noted by Rick Dhaliwal of CHEK, Willander and the Canucks can't sign deal until after his collegiate season with Boston University wraps up -- though that could happen Thursday if the Terriers lose to Ohio State. In his 35 games for Boston this year, the 2023 first-round pick notched two goals and 20 helpers. If he does link up with Vancouver this season, Willander will burn the first year of his entry-level deal.
