The Vancouver Canucks and pending unrestricted free-agent defenseman Erik Gudbranson are on track to finalize a multi-year contract extension this week, reports TSN's Bob McKenzie.
Gudbranson has been rumored as a potential trade target all season, but Canucks general manager Jim Benning said in January the team would try to extend him before any potential deadline deal.
In 41 games this season, Gudbranson, 26, has registered two goals and two assists while logging just under 18 minutes per contest.
