Arhsdeep Bains was selected to win this year's Fan Favourite award. The pride of Surrey, BC, currently leads the team with 41 points in 47 games and sits second all-time in franchise history for assists and points. Overall, Bains has played a crucial role for Abbotsford all season and is a big reason why they were able to go on a franchise-record 13-game winning streak earlier this season.
Unsung Hero: Ty Mueller
This season's Unsung Hero award went to rookie center Ty Mueller. The 22-year-old has 38 points in 62 games this season, and was the AHL Canucks' representative at the 2025 AHL All-Star Classic. Mueller was also recently called-up to NHL, and made his debut with the Canucks on Saturday against the Minnesota Wild.
Rookie of the Year: Jonathan Lekkerimäki
Jonathan Lekkerimäki was this year's winner of Abbotsford's Rookie of the Year. The 20-year-old was a goal-scoring machine this season for the AHL Canucks, posting 19 goals and 28 points in 34 games. Lekkerimäki is expected to play a big role during the 2025 Calder Cup Playoffs and should be able to light the lamp both on the power play and at even strength.
Man of the Year: Chase Wouters
For the third straight season, captain Chase Wouters has taken home the Man of the Year award. The 25-year-old continues to deliver both on and off the ice and has become a valuable member of the Abbotsford community. Now in his fourth season with the organization, Wouters has turned into a leader the AHL Canucks can be proud of.
Abbotsford wraps up its 2024-25 regular season schedule with a three-game road trip starting on Wednesday. The AHL Canucks have already secured home-ice in the first round, and have their eyes set on a first-place finish in the division.
