CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Blackhawks traded forward Lukas Reichel to the Vancouver Canucks on Friday, getting a 2027 fourth-round draft pick in return.

Reichel played in five of Chicago's first eight games, getting two goals and two assists. He has 58 points, including 22 goals, in 174 career games.

The 23-year-old Reichel was the 17th overall pick in the first round in 2020 out of Germany. He had 116 points in 121 career games with Chicago's AHL affiliate.

LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — Paris Saint-Germain advanced to the Champions League semifinals with a 2-0 win over Liverpool at Anfield on Tuesday.

Ousmane Dembele’s two second-half goals sealed a 4-0 aggregate victory and kept PSG on course to defend European club soccer’s biggest prize.

Dembele’s first goal killed off Liverpool’s fight as the Premier League club went in search of another famous Champions League comeback. The Ballon d’Or winner swept a low left-footed shot from the edge of the area past goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili to quieten the home crowd and ease PSG tension.

His second came at the end of a sweeping move in stoppage time.

Dembele had been guilty of wasting chances in the first leg to effectively put the tie to bed and he failed to capitalize on two more first-half opportunities to put the French champion further ahead at Anfield.

But his opening goal was dispatched with precision — nestling in the bottom corner. His second was a clinical finish from close range.

PSG is aiming to become only the second club to successfully defend the trophy in the Champions League era after Real Madrid won a hat trick of titles between 2016-18.

PSG will play the winner of Bayern Munich and Real Madrid in the semifinals.

Also Tuesday, Atletico Madrid advanced to the semifinals after a 3-2 aggregate win over Barcelona.
