The Hartford Whalers have acquired veteran goaltender Richard Brodeur from the Vancouver Canucks and defenseman Charles Bourgeois from the St. Louis Blues.

The Whalers sent goaltender Steve Weeks to Vancouver for Brodeur and exchanged draft picks with St. Louis in the deal for Bourgeois. Hartford received a third-round pick from St. Louis and gave the Blues their second-round selection this season.

Meanwhile, the Blues also got veteran defenseman Gordie Roberts, 30, from the Philadelphia Flyers for considerations.
