Hours before puck drop, Drew OB次元官网网址機onnor still wasnB次元官网网址檛 sure what he would wear to the rink Sunday.

The winger made it to Vancouver after being traded from the Pittsburgh Penguins to the Canucks late Friday night. His suits, however, did not.

B次元官网网址淚 think theyB次元官网网址檙e stuck in Denver right now,B次元官网网址� OB次元官网网址機onnor said of the garments. B次元官网网址淪o I donB次元官网网址檛 know what IB次元官网网址檓 gonna be wearing tonight, but weB次元官网网址檒l see. My hockey bag made it. Bag and sticks, thatB次元官网网址檚 the most important thing.B次元官网网址�

OB次元官网网址機onnor is one of several new faces expected to be in the lineup Sunday when Vancouver (23-18-10) hosts the Detroit Red Wings.

The clubB次元官网网址檚 roster underwent a dramatic makeover Friday thanks to a pair of trades with the Penguins and New York Rangers.

The Canucks shipped star centre J.T. Miller, defenceman Erik Brannstrom and defensive prospect Jackson Dorrington to the Big Apple, while Vancouver received centre Filip Chytil, defenceman Victor Mancini and a conditional 2025 first-round draft pick.

Hours later, Vancouver announced it had flipped that pick in another transaction. Along with the selection, the Canucks dealt forward Danton Heinen, blueliner Vincent Desharnais and the rights to forward Melvin Fernstrom to Pittsburgh for OB次元官网网址機onnor and defenceman Marcus Pettersson.

OB次元官网网址機onnor, 26, said he was B次元官网网址渄efinitely a little surprisedB次元官网网址� to get a call from Penguins general manager Kyle Dubas late Friday night informing him of the move.

B次元官网网址淚tB次元官网网址檚 my first time being traded, first time in a different organization, so I think it catches you off guard a little bit,B次元官网网址� he said. B次元官网网址淏ut definitely excited to be in Vancouver and to be here now.B次元官网网址�

He joins a Canucks team thatB次元官网网址檚 looking to climb back into playoff position after posting a 6-7-2 record in January.

Integrating a new group of players midseason is about simply tying to make them comfortable, head coach Rick Tocchet said after the additions joined him on the ice for an abbreviated morning skate Sunday.

B次元官网网址淎s a staff, you donB次元官网网址檛 overload them. You want them to have some fun tonight, and just donB次元官网网址檛 overload them with system stuff,B次元官网网址� he said. B次元官网网址淚B次元官网网址檝e been in this business a long time B次元官网网址� thatB次元官网网址檚 the best thing, especially when we make trades, is donB次元官网网址檛 overload the guys, let those guys go have some fun play.

B次元官网网址淎nd then obviously, hopefully, you can give them more structure as the season goes on.B次元官网网址�

A former assistant coach with the Penguins, Tocchet still has close ties to the franchise and texted about his new players with Pittsburgh captain Sidney Crosby on Saturday.

B次元官网网址淥bviously, when Sid says theyB次元官网网址檙e great locker room guys and really good people and players, that means a lot,B次元官网网址� Tocchet said.

OB次元官网网址機onnor has six goals and 10 assists in 53 appearances for the Penguins this season, while Pettersson registered three goals and 15 assists in 47 games.

Pettersson said he brings a simple, two-way game to Vancouver.

B次元官网网址淚 try to move the puck as quickly as I can out of the D zone,B次元官网网址� said the 28-year-old Swedish defenceman. B次元官网网址淚 feel like when IB次元官网网址檓 at my best, I have a good first pass, I use my stick, my reach, I use my feet to skate.

B次元官网网址淪o the simplicity of my game, when itB次元官网网址檚 at a high level, IB次元官网网址檓 at my best.B次元官网网址�

For former Rangers forward Chytil, playing well is about using his speed, getting to the net and making plays.

B次元官网网址淭hereB次元官网网址檚 still a lot of things what I have to work on, especially defence and faceoffs, but itB次元官网网址檚 part of the process,B次元官网网址� said the Czech centre. B次元官网网址淎nd I believe in the hard work, so I do that every day. And I think with each day IB次元官网网址檓 getting better.B次元官网网址�

Chytil, 25, admitted itB次元官网网址檚 been a difficult season in New York. He put up 11 goals and nine assists across 41 games, but the Rangers fell below the expectations set by their stunning run last season.

B次元官网网址淚t was a very difficult stretch, from winning Presidents Trophy last year to this. But youB次元官网网址檝e got to stay strong mentally,B次元官网网址� he said. B次元官网网址淥f course, we have stretches like this in the season.

B次元官网网址淚t can happen, but itB次元官网网址檚 about how youB次元官网网址檙e strong mentally, and how you can get back on the track as fast as you can.B次元官网网址�
