Kole Lind is officially no longer a member of the Vancouver Canucks.

On Wednesday evening, the Seattle Kraken selected the 22-year-old right winger to join their franchise, the 32nd one in the NHL. The announcement wrapped up the 90-minute broadcast, coming directly from owner Jerry Bruckheimer.

For most Canucks fans, this didn’t come as a big surprise.
