Vancouver Canucks add another goalie on Sunday night.

With questions surrounding the health of their goaltending for this upcoming season, there was word floating around that the Vancouver Canucks were in search of some insurance between the pipes. It sounds like they finally found their man on Sunday night.

According to an official announcement from the Canucks organization, the team has extended a professional tryout offer to former Ottawa Senators goaltender Dylan Ferguson who has agreed to join the team in training camp.

Ferguson is a former 7th round pick (194th overall) of the Dallas Stars at the 2017 National Hockey League Entry Draft and most recently spent time playing professional hockey in the Kontinental Hockey League. Last season Ferguson was a member of Dynamo Minsk,appearing in 23 games for the KHL team in which he recorded a 2.51 goals against average and a .904 save percentage.

The majority of his NHL experience came the season prior as a member of the Ottawa Senators in which he appeared in only 2 games, having stellar performances wiht a 2.52 goals against average and a .940 sdave percentage over those 2 games. He fared well in the American Hockey League that season as well as a member of the Belleville Senators, recording a 2.52 goals against average as well as a .962 save percentage.

Earlier in the day I brought you a report from an outlet in Finland that indicated that former NHL goaltender Antti Raanta had turned down a offer from the Canucks during the offseason, choosing instead to return closer to home and play in Europe this season. That would appear to indicate that Ferguson wasn't the Canucks first choice, but hopefully he will prove to be suitable for the role.
