According to TSN.ca:
Preseason projected role Vydareny should spend more time developing his all-around game with the AHL's Manitoba Moose in 2003-04. Assets Has plenty of offensive upside. Skates very well and moves the puck quickly. Flaws Needs to start turning potential into points in order to get noticed. Must continue to work on his defensive game. Career potential No. 6 or 7 defenseman.
26-Jun-99: Drafted by the Vancouver Canucks in the 3rd round (69th overall) in 1999.

I like this deal we get rid of Blouin who we don't really need at all and we get a decent young player.

History Finally making some steps forward last season, Vydareny is beginning to repay the investment made by the Canucks to sign him away from his Slovakian Club Team. After a second straight slow start this season in Manitoba, he was sent down to Columbia, so he could get more ice time, and to work on the holes in his game. He finished the season in Manitoba, helping solidify one of the better defensive units in the AHL. Talent Analysis A highly-skilled player, he relied mostly on his offensive skills while in junior (both in Slovakia and with Rimouski), so his defensive skills were more or less neglected until this season. However, his offensive skill set is impressive. Vydareny boasts a hard shot from the point, which is also usually on net, excellent skating skills, including good speed and acceleration. His first pass out of the zone is solid and usually on target. Defensively, however, a lot of work still remains to be done. Positionally, he's below-average, with good foot-speed that lets him process the game quicker; and to get back into position. Vydareny pinches too often, and ends up getting burned down at the other end. He's not physical, but that can be fixed eventually. FutureA #5-6 defenseman. He will be an NHL player, but likely not a high end one. - www.hockeysfuture.com/prospect.php?pid=111

A good project for Jarvis. And we're pretty low in D depth anyway. Blouins was completely useless. It's a sure win deal.

This kid was ranked by HF as the Canucks #15 prospect, so you never know.

Team Acquisition MON RENE VYDARENY VAN SYLVAIN BLOUIN Wow! Vydareny for Blouin. Biggest trade since the "THREAD". Could this make us forget Dyment. I like Gainey's style. If it ain't broke don't fix it. Keep the Chemistry.
