The Vancouver Canucks have waived forward Sam Gagner, the team announced Monday.
Gagner was set to enter the second season of a three-year contract signed with the Canucks that pays him $3.15 million annually.
In 74 games with Vancouver last season, Gagner had 10 goals and 21 assists. The 29-year-old has suited up for five teams since 2013-14, but should garner some interest on the waiver wire as a serviceable depth center.
