RULLIER FOR GENOWAY

The Anaheim Ducks acquired defenseman Joe Rullier from the Vancouver Canucks for winger Colby Genoway.

What does it give the Anaheim Ducks
The Ducks love physical players, so Rullier should fit in immediately. He'll probably remain in the AHL unless the club gets into an even greater hole with blueline injuries.

What does it give the Vancouver Canucks
Genoway will provide a little depth along the wings for the Canucks, but he's not expected to see action in the NHL this season. He's a solid gamble for a team seeking both size and goals up front.
