The Abbotsford Canucks went head-to-head with Henderson Silver Knights again tonight after a massive offensive victory yesterday.  

Changes to the goaltenders on both ends of the ice, Nikita Tolopilo started in net for the Canucks, taking on Akira Schmid for the Silver Knights. 

It appeared to be an otherwise identical roster for the Canucks tonight, with Jonathan Lekkerimäki lining up next to Tristen Nielsen and Nils Åman. Ty Mueller continued to center Carsen Twarynski and Danila Klimovich, followed by Nate Smith, Chase Wouters, and Dino Kambeitz. Ty Glover and Cooper Walker bookended John Stevens once again, to round out the offence. 

The same defensive pairings also saw Guillaume Brisebois and Cole McWard together, followed by Kirill Kudryavtsev and Jett Woo, and Elias Pettersson with Mark Friedman. 

Not much action in the first period other than a pair of penalties dealt to each team. The Canucks did a great job at limiting the Silver Knights chances, holding them to just five shots on net, but despite outshooting them, they were unable to capitalize this period themselves. The teams would head back to the room scoreless. 

Heading into the next 20 minutes, both teams were looking to get on the scoreboard first. The Canucks doing a great job once again at limiting the Silver Knights's chances, holding them to just another five shots this period. Henderson also got called for a few penalties before the halfway mark, meaning they would be down a man for 4 minutes out of the first 10. An unbelievable play from Jonathan Lekkerimäki in the neutral zone would lead to the Canucks first goal of the game. Lekkerimäki pickpocketed Brendan Brisson mid-ice and headed on a breakaway the other direction, stick-handling his way to the first goal of the game. Another penalty to the Silver Knights would foreshadow their deficit growing larger when Tristen Nielsen would quickly shoot the puck to the back of their net, giving the Canucks a 2-0 lead heading into the third period. 

Tensions rose, sticks were held, and six penalties were dealt in the final frame. The Canucks on the man advantage for most of it, couldn’t muster up another goal before the end of the game. With the time running out, the Silver Knights hoped to get on the board, so they pulled their goalie for the man advantage late in the third. Unfortunately, a last-minute penalty meant they would be out a goaltender, playing 5 on 5 hockey. Nikita Tolopilo was able to hold on until the buzzer sounded and secured his first AHL Career Shutout! 

The Canucks took this one 2-0, to sweep this series against Henderson for their third straight win on the road. They will return to Bakersfield on Tuesday, before heading to San Jose to close out their six-game road trip.

The Canucks shut out the Henderson Silver Knights in a 2-0 victory

The Abbotsford Canucks continued their road trip, kicking off game two, and their first matchup against the Henderson Silver Knights this season. 

Ty Young got his third consecutive start for the Canucks, taking on Jesper Vikman at the opposing end. 

Jonathan Lekkerimäki rejoined the group down in Henderson after playing in his first NHL games and notching his first NHL goal with the big club. He lined up next to Tristen Nielsen and Nils Åman tonight. Ty Mueller centered Carsen Twarynski and Danila Klimovich, followed by Nate Smith, Chase Wouters, and Dino Kambeitz. The final forwards remain unchanged from the last few games, consisting of Ty Glover, John Stevens, and Cooper Walker. 

A mix-up to the blue liners, as Guillaume Brisebois and Cole McWard paired up, followed by Kirill Kudryavtsev and Jett Woo. Elias Pettersson drew back into the lineup following his stint with the big club and lined up next to Mark Friedman, who also returned tonight after an injury a few weeks back. 

The first period was a big one, despite starting in the hands of the Silver Knights. Henderson looked strong for the first few minutes, registering a few chances on net, but a shot from Tristen Nielsen created a shift in momentum. Nielsen ripped one from the left-wing boards, going straight into the Silver Knight’s net for his second of the season, putting the Canucks up 1-0, halfway through the first. Just 2 minutes later, a penalty called on Henderson, left room for Ty Mueller to rip one top shelf, to extend the Canucks lead by 2. A few minutes later, Riley McKay would be the one to cut the lead in half when he snuck one past Ty Young. Nothing to fret over for Canucks fans, because Captain Chase Wouters answered right back, capitalizing on the powerplay, scoring the Canucks third goal of the game. Abbotsford would head to the dressing room, up 3-1, outshooting the Silver Knights 17-17 after the first twenty minutes of play.
 
The second period saw even more explosion for the Canucks offense. Just under halfway through the period, John Stevens and Ty Glover found themselves on a two-on-one, where Stevens would pass across for Glover, and he would seal the deal, making it 4-1 Canucks. If one wasn’t good enough, after intercepting a turnover in the Canucks end, Jett Woo and John Stevens headed down the ice on another 2 on 1, this time, John Stevens being the one to light the lamp for the Canucks. Stevens notched his third of the season, putting the Silver Knights in a 4 goal deficit. The fun didn’t stop there, because two minutes later, Cole McWard set up Danila Klimovich, who was all alone in front of the net, and deflected the shot to put the Canucks up 6-1. Henderson was unable to respond in the second period, leaving the Canucks with a big lead before the final frame. 

Going into the final period, the Canucks had the upper hand. Looking to keep the trend going, Kirill Kudryavtsev added one more to the tally, sneaking one through, making it 7-1. Henderson was able to prevent any more goals from coming through, but they could not tally any themselves.
 
The Canucks take this game, with a massive 7-1 victory over the Henderson Silver Knights! Seven different Canucks found themselves on the scoresheet, and six Canucks put up a multi-point night to contribute to the win tonight. 

Looking to ride the win streak, Abbotsford will play Henderson once again tomorrow night, before heading back to Bakersfield on Tuesday.

The Abbotsford Canucks take their first game against the Henderson Silver Knights, 7-1.

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 rematched the San Jose Barracuda, following a 5-3 loss last night, for their final game of the road trip.

Switching things up in the net, saw Nikita Tolopilo get the start for Canucks tonight, against Gabriel Carriere.

The Canucks first and second lines remained identical to last night, with Jonathan Lekkerimäki, Nils Åman with Tristen Nielsen. Ty Mueller continued to center Arshdeep Bains and Danila Klimovich. Ty Glover moved up a spot, winging Nate Smith, alongside Dino Kambeitz who had his first multi-goal AHL game last night. Ben Berard made his Abbotsford debut tonight, lining up next to captain Chase Wouters and John Stevens to round out the offense. 

Elias Pettersson continued defending with Cole McWard to kick things off. Christian Wolanin and Christian Felton stuck together once again, and Layton Ahac slotted back into the lineup next to Kirill Kudryavtsev to strong-arm the defensive group. 

A quick start to the game, going in favour of the Barracuda. An early penalty call to Arshdeep Bains, meant San Jose would head to the powerplay just under 4 minutes into the game. Luca Cagnoni cashed in on the advantage just 30 seconds in, to give the Barracuda a 1-0 lead. 30 seconds later, Donovan Houle scored off a seemingly harmless shot, to extend their lead to 2. The Canucks were able to cool them down, preventing any more goals before the end of the period, but were unable to secure any themselves. Abbotsford was in a 2 goal deficit heading into the second period. 

The next twenty minutes started with an uno reverso, this time going in favour of the Canucks. Just one minute in, Elias Pettersson intercepted and created a turnover, sending a long pass down the ice for Tristen Nielsen, who scored the Canucks first goal of the game on the breakaway. Just seventy seconds after that, John Stevens and Ben Berard found themselves on a 2-on-1, where Stevens set up Berard to score his first goal as an Abby Canuck. The game was now tied, just two minutes and ten seconds into the second period. Unfortunately, a few minutes later, the Canucks were caught trying to kill another penalty, but once again Luca Cagnoni was able to capitalize, after a shot from the top of the zone went straight to the back of Abbotsford’s net, to regain their lead, 3-2. Looking to respond, Danila Klimovich capitalized on a San Jose giveaway, going top shelf on Carriere, to tie the game up at 3 once again, halfway through the period. With just over a minute and a half to go, the Barracuda found themselves on yet another powerplay, this time, Andrew Poturalski took a shot from the right circle to restore the lead, 4-3. With 0.4 seconds left on the clock, Colin White was able to sneak one past Tolopilo for the buzzer-beater, and the Barracuda had their 2-goal lead restored, heading into the final frame. 

The third period, once again, saw action quickly, back in favour of San Jose. After creating a turnover, Thomas Bordeleau secured some more insurance, netting their 6th goal of the game, extending the Barracuda’s lead to 3. The Canucks headed to the powerplay and registered some grade-A chances, but Carriere stooped them all. Coming down to the wire, the Canucks secured another powerplay, and just two seconds after it expired, Tristen Nielsen ripped a shot on net from the right circle to secure his second of the game, bringing the Canucks within 2. Unfortunately, a late penalty to the Canucks, and a last-ditch effort to regain even strength, didn’t go as planned and Justin Bailey netted the empty net goal once again to secure the victory for the Barracuda. 

San Jose sweeped the back-to-back in a 7-4 win over the Canucks, concluding their 6-game road trip. The Canucks went 4-2-0 this road trip and will return home for a holiday frenzy, playing their Teddy Bear Toss, Ugly Sweater Night, and many more.

The Canucks fall 7-4 to the San Jose Barracuda to conclude their 6 game road trip.

The Canucks fall 7-4 to the San Jose Barracuda concluding their 6 game road trip

The Abbotsford Canucks were looking for their 5th straight win, taking this road trip by storm, as they faced the San Jose Barracuda for the first time this season. 

Ty Young started in net for the Canucks today, after having a 2 game break, and he took on Yaroslav Askarov.

The Canucks didn’t change their first line, continuing to have Jonathan Lekkerimäki wing Nils Åman with Tristen Nielsen. They also had the addition of Arshdeep Bains rejoin the team tonight, and he lined up next to Ty Mueller and Danila Klimovich. John Stevens moved up to bookend Chase Wouters with Carsen Twarynski, and Nate Smith shifted to center Ty Glover and Dino Kambeitz.

Going with different defensive pairing as well, Elias Pettersson teamed up with Cole McWard to kick things off. Kirill Kudryavtsev lined next to Akito Hirose, and Christian Wolanin and Christian Felton slotted into the lineup tonight to strong-arm the backend. 
Abbotsford kicked off the first few minutes strong, using their possession of the puck to generate some shots on net. A quick penalty call to the Barracuda meant the Canucks would head to the powerplay first, but San Jose successfully killed it off.  It ended up being Lucas Vanroboys who took a sneaky shot on Ty Young that went top left corner, to give the Barracuda a 1-0 lead. They continued to register a bunch of chances, but with 52 seconds left to play in the first period, another shot by Luca Vanroboys squeezed through Ty Young's legs to give the Cuda a 2-0 lead, heading into the second period. 

The Canucks looked to get on the board and build momentum, but a tripping call to Ty Mueller meant they would be down a man just a minute into the period. Although killing that off, Justin Bailey would be the one to score first, giving the Barracuda a 3-0 lead. Chase Wouters dropped the gloves with Anthony Vincent shortly after, hoping it would spark something in his team. As he sat in the box, the Canucks offense came to life, just as he hoped. Elias Pettersson scored his first career AHL goal, with a beautiful shot from the blue line, going right past Akvarov, before he could even see it. Three minutes after that, Dino Kambeitz stickhandled across the ice and fired the puck straight to the back of the Barracuda's net to bring them within one. 

Once again, the Canucks found themselves on the kill early on in the final frame. This time, during what the Barracuda thought would be a reset in their zone, Dino Kambeitz came in hot, colliding with Shakir Mukhamadullin, turning around and firing the puck on net. Dino’s second goal of the game came short-handed and tied it up at 3, giving the Canucks life. Looking for the tiebreaker, Ty Young came up with some big saves to keep the Canucks momentum rolling, but it was ultimately Scott Sabourin who would get the go-ahead goal for the Barracuda with 5 minutes left. The Canucks pulled their goalie in exchange for an extra attacker. Coming so close, an unlucky bounce saw Justin Bailey and Filip Bystedt head down the ice and secure the empty netter, giving them a 2 goal lead. 

The Canucks drop this one 5-3, snapping their win streak, but will rematch the Barracuda tomorrow night, for their final game of the road trip before heading home.

Despite erasing a 3 goal deficit, the Abbotsford Canucks couldn't get it done and the Barracuda snap the win streak, defeating them 5-3. 

The Abbotsford Canucks drop their first game against the San Jose Barracuda, 5-3.

The Abbotsford Canucks were hot off a 3-game win streak and returned to Bakersfield for another one-off game against the Condors. 

Nikita Tolopilo got the nod in net tonight after registering his first career AHL shutout on Saturday against the Henderson Silver Knights. He went head-to-head with Colin Delia at the Condors' end. 

Sticking to what’s been working, the Canucks went with an identical offensive lineup tonight. Jonathan Lekkerimäki stuck to winging Nils Åman with Tristen Nielsen, and Ty Mueller continued to center Carsen Twarynski and Danila Klimovich. Nate Smith, Chase Wouters, and Dino Kambeitz stuck together, and Ty Glover and Cooper Walker continued the streak of bookending John Stevens. 

A slight change to the defense, with Elias Pettersson and Mark Friedman kicking things off. Kirill Kudryavtsev and Jett Woo stuck together, but Akito Hirose slotted back in tonight alongside Cole McWard to round out the lineup. 

Neither team was able to crack the scoresheet this frame despite some close calls. The Condors had some grade-A chances, outshooting the Canucks but Nikita Tolopilo stood on his head, stopping them all. Despite a chance on the powerplay, the Canucks couldn’t light the lamp, and the game was scoreless heading into the second period. 

The Condors came out strong in the second, holding the Canucks to just 1 shot on net in the first half. Tolopilo continued to do a great job at holding the game even, and despite not generating any shots, the Canucks were throwing bodies on the line and playing great defense. It wasn’t until a hooking call was dealt to the Condors, that Danila Klimovich was able to rip one from the right circle to break the deadlock. With the powerplay working in their favour, Klimovich’s goal gave the Canucks the first lead of the game. Just a minute after that, the Condors were down a man once again after an interference call, and the Canucks powerplay went back to work.  Ty Mueller was gifted the wide-open net, with no one in his way, and a shot to the back of the net, meant the Canucks would be up 2-0 heading into the final frame. 

Looking to keep their lead, their momentum was spoiled early into the third when Noel Hoefenmayer got a shot from the blue line that just sneaked past Tolopilo. This goal came right after an unreal save but unfortunately brought the Condors within one. Bakersfield kept up the pressure, coming really close to tying it, but as time was expiring, they decided to pull Delia from the net. A shot on the empty net from Klimovich hit the post, and the Condors were spared for a little bit, but with just a few seconds remaining before the buzzer, Nils Åman skated down the ice with the puck, to net the empty netter with 4 seconds left in the game, securing the Canucks win.

The Canucks took this one 3-1, sweeping this road series with Bakersfield, for their fourth straight win. Nikita Tolopilo also stopped 62 of his last 63 shots, standing on his head to help bring the Canucks to victory twice in a row. They will head to San Jose to take on the Barracuda for the first time this season, and their final test on the road before enjoying a holiday homestand in December.
