Former Gopher Keith Ballard was traded to the hated Vancouver Canucks, so now Wild fans will probably boo him when he comes to the Xcel Energy Center.
LOS ANGELES -- After two seasons with the Panthers, Keith Ballard is moving once once more.
The former Phoenix Coyote is off to Vancouver after Dale Tallon traded him west for forward Steve Bernier and the No. 25 pick in tonight's draft.
This trade is not official nor has it been announced.
This is an obvious salary dump, with Ballard making $4.2 million in each of the next five seasons.
Bernier, who scored 11 goals with 11 assists in 59 games for the Canucks last season, is making $2 million next season and is a restricted free agent in 2011. [Miami Herald]
