The Abbotsford Canucks rematched against the Bakersfield Condors tonight after dropping yesterday’s game 3-1. 

Artūrs Šilovs got the call to start in net for Abbotsford tonight, facing off against Colli Delia for his 2024/25 AHL debut. 

After getting some reinforcement from Vancouver Arshdeep Bains and Nils Åman returned to the Abbotsford lineup and made their home-ice debut this season alongside Tristen Nielsen. Ty Mueller winged Max Sasson with Danila Klimovich, followed by Carsen Twarynski, Chase Wouters, and Nate Smith. John Stevens centered Ty Glover and Cooper Walker, two linemates with points in the last game, to round out the offense. 

On the backend, Akito Hirose paired up with Jett Woo, with Elias Pettersson and Cole McWard on their tail, and Guillaume Brisebois and Christian Felton stuck together to complete the Canucks dressing. 

Looking to strike quickly, the Canucks quickly drew a man advantage. They had some great looks on net, but nothing could get through Delia. It ended up being a very tame period, mostly 5-on-5 hockey, and neither team was able to light the lamp. The Canucks held the Condors to just 4 shots in the first frame and outshot them with 11. A last-second high-sticking call to the Condors meant the Canucks would start the second period on a powerplay. 

The Canucks were the first to strike in the second period when a shot from Jett Woo fired back and Akito Hirose was able to grab it and fire it straight to the back of the net. Akito Hirose netted his first career AHL goal to put the Canucks up 1-0 just 2 minutes into the period. With the helper on this goal, Jett Woo also tallied his 50th career AHL assist. A tripping call to Guillaume Brisebois meant the Condors would get the only powerplay in the second frame. Matthew Savoie would be the one to capitalize after receiving a cross-ice pass from Seth Griffith to tie the game up at 1. The teams would head back to the dressing rooms all squared up.

The final frame would be a battle to break the tie, but a quick penalty call to the Canucks would leave them on a powerplay early on. Danila Klimovich would take advantage of it and send home a rocket just 3 minutes into the period, giving the Canucks a 2-1 lead. Unfortunately, just over a minute later, Drake Caggiula would equalize the game once again and square it up at 2. Just after the halfway point, Max Sasson would spin around with the puck, and Ty Mueller would be there to tip it past the red line, and restore the lead, 3-1. With a few minutes left in the game, the Condors pulled their goalie for an extra attacker, but Jett Woo would be the one to ensure the win and notch the empty net goal. 

The Canucks defeated the Condors 4-2 and successfully split the series to put them back in the win column. 

Abbotsford will spend the week at home before taking on the Coachella Valley Firebirds at the end of the week for Hockey Fights Cancer and Movember Night, before heading on a long road trip down south once again.

THE CANUCKS GET BACK IN THE WIN COLUMN WITH A 4-2 VICTORY OVER THE BAKERSFIELD CONDORS

The Abbotsford Canucks returned home from their 3 game road trip down south, and faced the Bakersfield Condors for the first time this season on Country Night! 

Nikita Tolopilo got the nod in net tonight for the Canucks, taking on Oliver Rodrigue at the other end. 

The Canucks shook up the lineup tonight, with Ty Mueller, Max Sasson, and Danila Klimovich kicking things off offensively. Nate Smith centered Chase Wouters and Tristen Nielsen, followed by Ty Glover, John Stevens, and Carsen Twarynski. Going with an 11 and 7 formation again, Cooper Walker and Dino Kambeitz rounded out the offence. 

On defence, Akito Hirose returned to the lineup, pairing up with Jett Woo, followed by Elias Pettersson and Cole McWard. Christian Felton made his AHL debut tonight alongside veteran Guillaume Brisebois, and Kirill Kudryavtsev solidified things at the blue line. 

It was a slow first period to start the game, with each team limiting their opponents’ shots. The Condors held the Canucks to just 3 shots, and Canucks held Bakersfield to 5. The Canucks were also able to kill off a 5-on-3, to keep the game scoreless. It wasn’t until 18 minutes into the period that the Condors were able to strike first as Cameron Wright put them up 1-0 to head back to the dressing room. 

Heading into the second, frame the Canucks looked to get on the board. The first half of the period was another quiet one, with few penalties or shots on goal. Once again, it was the Condors that got on the board first. Drake Caggiula ripped one to the back of the Canucks net to extend their lead to 2-0. Looking for a quick response Jett Woo created a turnover play where Ty Glover headed down the stretch and put the puck hard on the net. Picking up the rebound Cooper Walker brought the Canucks within one, eleven and a half minutes into the second. Tension rose shortly after when Jett Woo and Akito Hirose both got into it with Drake Caggiula and Max Wanner. Neither team was able to score in the remaining minutes, and the Canucks were down by one heading into the final frame. 

Halfway through the third period, Bakersfield found the back of the net after intercepting a Canucks play, restoring their 2-goal lead as a result of Carl Berglund’s first goal of the season. In a last-ditch effort by the Canucks, they pulled the netminder to add an extra man on the ice with just over 2 minutes to play. Although preventing the Condors from notching any empty net goals, The Canucks could not muster up enough goals to push back against the Condors, and they dropped this one 3-1. 

The two teams will rematch tomorrow before the Abby Canucks take on the Coachella Valley Firebirds next weekend for Hockey Fights Cancer and Movember Night.

Despite outshooting the Condors, the Canucks couldn't get it done and dropped this one 3-1 against Bakersfield.

The Canucks fell 3-1 against the Bakersfield Condors

The Abbotsford Canucks closed out their California road trip with a one-stop visit to Ontario to take on the Ontario Reign. This is the first meeting between the two teams since round two of the playoffs, where Ontario came out on top. 

Arshdeep Bains made his Abbotsford debut this season, fresh off a successful stint and his first NHL goal up with the big club, the Vancouver Canucks. He would wing Nils Åman, also a fresh pair of legs to the Abbotsford lineup, with Jonathan Lekkerimäki. Max Sasson centered John Stevens and Danila Klimovich, followed by Tristen Nielsen, Ty Mueller, and Chase Wouters. Ty Glover and Cooper Walker paired up as the final 2 forwards tonight.
 
On defence, the team shook things up, switching up some pairings from the past few games. Layton Ahac got some top-line action alongside Jett Woo, and Elias Pettersson paired up with Cole McWard. Veteran Guillaume Brisebois lined up next to rookie Kirill Kudryavtsev, and Christian Wolanin hung out as the 7th defencemen, rounding out the blue line. 

Nikita Tolopilo got the nod in net tonight and faced netminder Eric Portillo at the opposing end. 

It was a 'blink-and-you-miss-it' kind of first period. The first goal of the game went quickly to the Ontario Reign, as their star forward Samuel Fagemo opened the scoring just 3 and a half minutes into the game. Taylor Ward took the next shot in the game, and the puck found the back of the net once again, giving the Reign an early 2-goal lead less than a minute later. The Canucks then found themselves on a powerplay, and Danila Klimovich was able to capitalize with a snipe from the point to get the Canucks on the board and cut the Reign’s lead in half. Arshdeep Bains got his first assist of the season on Klimovich’s goal. The momentum shifted quickly, when just 20 seconds later Charles Hudon lit the lamp, restoring the Reign’s 2-goal lead. The game settled down for a little bit, with the Canucks getting some grade-A chances, but couldn’t capitalize. After the halfway point, Jeff Malott sealed the deal in the first period, getting his first goal of the season to give Ontario a 3-goal lead heading back to the dressing room.

The Reign once again were the first to strike, just over 3 minutes in, when Charles Hudon netted his second goal of the game, giving them a 4-goal cushion. The Canucks had to step on the gas to get themselves back into this game. 5 minutes later, Ontario was called for hooking and the Canucks caught a break, and headed to the powerplay. Jonathan Lekkerimäki did what he does best and fired one home on the man advantage to lessen the deficit, 5-2. Not long after, the Canucks continued putting pucks on net, but it was John Stevens who shot in front and Ty Mueller was there to deflect it in, bringing the Canucks within 2 once again. This goal came as Ty Mueller’s first AHL goal and helped the Canucks inch closer to a sought-after comeback.

Keeping with the pattern, The Reign once again opened the scoring in the final frame, as Tyler Madden completed the tic-tac-toe sequence to put them up 6-2. Quick to respond, however, was Arshdeep Bains when he picked up his own rebound to sneak one past Portillo to bring them within 2 for the third time this game. Unfortunately, that didn’t last long as a late powerplay for the Reign meant Jack Studnicka would find a way to get on the board and score their 7th goal of the game. In a last-ditch effort by the Canucks to close the gap, Tolopilo was pulled from the net to give the team an extra body on the ice. The puck got past the blue line and despite the defencemen’s best effort to stop them, Samuel Fagaemo was just that much quicker and was able to solidify the empty net goal, bringing their tally up to 8 goals. 

The Canucks couldn’t complete the comeback after dropping 4 goals early in the game and lost this one 8-4 against the Ontario Reign.

The team finally returns home for a 4 game stint against the Condors and Firebirds for some action-packed games, including Country Night and Movember Night, kicking off at the Abbotsford Centre on Saturday night!

The Canucks fall 8-4 against the Ontario Reign to conclude their roadtrip

The Abbotsford Canucks kicked off their 6 game road trip in California with a game against the Bakersfield Condors for a midweek matinee game. The last time these two teams met, they split the series, each walking away with a win. 

Ty Young got the start once again, after his AHL debut against the Coachella Valley Firebirds on Saturday, and he took on Olivier Rodrigue at the other end. 

After a transaction with Vancouver prior to the game, the Abbotsford lines shifted once again, with Ty Mueller, Max Sasson, and Danila Klimovich kicking things off. Nils Åman centered Carsen Twarynski and Tristen Nielsen, and Dino Kambeitz drew back into the lineup, alongside Nate Smith and Chase Wouters. Ty Glover, John Stevens, and Cooper Walker stuck together, after putting up points in their last few games. 

On defence, Akito Hirose and Jett Woo paired up, followed by Guillaume Brisebois and Christian Felton. Kirill Kudryavtsev and Cole McWard rounded things out on the back end to complete the Canucks lineup this morning.

The rivalry between the two teams was evident today when a fight broke out less than two minutes into the game. A couple of penalties were exchanged between the two teams after that, but it was ultimately Max Sasson who capitalized when he backhanded the rebound into Bakersfield's net to notch the first goal of the game, getting the Canucks on the board first. The Condors were unable to respond in the first 20 minutes, and Abbotsford held the lead through to the second.

A quick start to the second period, saw Abbotsford extending their lead early on. A quick rip from Danila Klimovich went straight to the back of the Condors' net before Olivier Rodrigue had a chance to stop it. Abbotsford now had a 2-goal lead. It was scoreless for the next 10 mins, until former Abbotsford Canuck Alex Kannok Leipert, netted his first of the season with a long shot from the blue line, and the Condors were on the board. It didn’t take long before the Canucks would respond when a one-timer from the blue line made its way to the back of the net thanks to Cole McWard. Abbotsford restored their 2-goal lead and would head into the final frame up 3-1. 

Looking for some more insurance, the Canucks drew up the perfect tic-tac-toe situation to extend their lead 4-1. Tristen Nielsen passed across to Nils Åman, who passed back for Carsen Twarynski to net their fourth goal of the game! Four minutes later, however, Phil Kemp secured his Gordie Howe Hat Trick after scoring on Ty Young, cutting the Canucks lead in half once again. With time running out, the Condors pulled their netminder with the hope of getting them back into the game, but Ty Young stopped all remaining shots to secure his first AHL win!

The Canucks take game one of their road trip with a 4-2 victory over the Bakersfield Condors. Abbotsford will head to Henderson next for their first meet of the season, before going back to Bakersfield for another stand-alone game.

The Abbotsford Canucks pick up a 4-2 victory against the Bakersfield Condors on their first stop of the road trip

Tonight, the Abbotsford Canucks rematched the Coachella Valley Firebirds and looked to split the series 1-1. The two teams continue to sit beside each other in the standings, so another even matchup was to be expected.

Ty Young got the go-ahead tonight, starting between the crease for the Canucks for his AHL debut. He would face off against the Ales Steza. 

Switching up the lines from last night, Max Sasson and Danila Klimovich joined Arshdeep Bains on the first line, followed by the new line of Ty Mueller, Nils Åman, and Tristen Nielsen. Carsen Twarynski and Nate Smith continued to bookend Chase Wouters, and John Stevens, Ty Glover, and Cooper Walker remained a trio to solidify the offence.

At the blue line, Elias Pettersson joined Jett Woo, and Kirill Kudryavtsev slotted back in next to Cole Mcward. Guillaume Brisebois and Christian Felton stuck together to round out the Canucks lineup. 

The first period got off to a quick start, with Abbotsford netting the first goal. Just under 3 minutes in, Cooper Walker passed the puck ahead to Ty Glover who, with speed and finesse, backhanded the puck right into the Firebirds' net, to give the Canucks a 1-0 lead. The Canucks headed to the powerplay shortly after, and which a bunch of close calls, Ales Steza stayed sharp denying Abbotsford some insurance. Instead, a few minutes later, it was Luke Henman who would find himself on the scoresheet to tie the game up at 1, after getting the puck past Young. Abbotsford successfully killed off a penalty, but after getting back to even strength, Max McCormick would be the one to score, giving the Firebirds a lead heading into the second. 

The second period was another big one, but this time in favour of the Canucks. Edward Sale got his goal fixing, just one minute into the period, to extend the Firebirds' lead to 2 goals to kick off the period. Although down, the Canucks were not out, because just two minutes later, Cooper Walker stashed the rebound into Coachella’s net, to bring them within one. Continuing this stretch, the Canucks offence exploded registering shot after shot on net, but Ales Stezka denied them all. After 14 minutes, Chase Wouters took a long shot from the blue line, that tipped off of Nate Smith’s stick to tie the game up at 3. This goal came as Nate Smith’s first goal as a Canuck, and ensured the Canucks would not be down heading into the final frame. 

The teams would look to battle to come out ahead in the third period. Coachella outshot Abbotsford, after being the only team to have the man advantage. The Canucks had a great attempt at killing the penalties, coming close to a short-handed goal themselves, but with 36 seconds left in the game, Cale Fleury was the one who ultimately found the back of the net to secure the victory and come out on top. The Canucks pulled the goalie but the time ran out before they could equalize. 

Despite coming back from a 3-1 deficit, the Canucks dropped this game 4-3. Abbotsford will hit the road for a 6 game road trip in California, before returning home to a holiday frenzy at the Abbotsford Centre.

The Canucks dropped their second game against the Coachella Valley Firebirds, 4-3.

Tonight, the Abbotsford Canucks took on the Coachella Valley Firebirds for their Hockey Fights Cancer night. This was the first meeting between the two teams, who are currently sitting back to back on the leaderboard. 

Nikita Tolopilo will get the start once again tonight, taking on Nikke Kokko down at the Firebird’s end. 

The Canucks chose to go with an otherwise identical roster from last Sunday’s game against the Condors. Arshdeep Bains and Nils Åman lined up alongside Tristen Nielsen. Ty Mueller continued to Max Sasson with Danila Klimovich, followed by Carsen Twarynski, Chase Wouters, and Nate Smith. John Stevens centered Ty Glover and Cooper Walker, to close out the offensive team. 

On the backend, Akito Hirose once again paired up with Jett Woo, with Elias Petterson and Cole McWard on their tail, and Guillaume Brisebois and Christian Felton stuck together to complete the Canucks fighters for the night.  

It was a pretty even first half of the period, with not much happening. There was a penalty to each team in the first 12 minutes, but neither could capitalize. It wasn’t until 16:05 when Guillaume Brisebois ripped a shot from the blue line, breezing right past Nikke Kokko, to give the Abby Canucks a lead and the first goal of the game. This came as Brisebois' first of the season as well. It didn’t take long for Coachella to respond, because just two and a half minutes later, Jani Nyman squeaked one past Tolopilo to tie up the game at 1 heading into the second. 

Once again, the second period didn’t see too much action. A few penalties were exchanged between the two teams, and some great chances on both ends, but ultimately, neither team was able to capitalize. The score remained 1-1 going into the final frame, forcing a battle in the third. 

The Firebirds were quick to get the lead, as just under 2 minutes into the third, Max Lajoie was able to get one to the back of the Canucks net, to put them up 2-1. The Canucks got were forced to kill a bunch of penalties, leaving them down a man for a few minutes. Some close shots but nothing found the back of the net. With a few minutes to go, Tolopilo returned to the bench to allow for an extra attacker, in their attempt to force an overtime. Unfortunately, it was Max McCormick who secured some insurance netting the empty net goal to give them a 2 goal lead. Just 30 seconds later, Ryan Winterton sent a long shot down the ice, that landed right in the Canucks empty net once again, and the Firebirds were up 4-1. 

Despite getting on the board first, the Canucks could not close it out and dropped game one against the Firebirds, 4-1. They will rematch tomorrow night for their inaugural Movember Night, before hitting the road for their 6-game stint in California once again.
