Canucks Assign Quillan To The AHL, Thomas Set To Make Debut With Abbotsford

The Vancouver Canucks have assigned forward Jacob Quillan to the AHL. The 24-year-old played three games with the Canucks where he recorded two shots and 12 penalty minutes. So far this season, Quillan has played in five games for the Abbotsford Canucks where he has recorded seven points. 

While Quillan will not be in the lineup on Saturday, Akil Thomas will. The 26-year-old will make his season debut against the Ontario Reign after missing the first part of the campaign with an injury. Based on pre-game lines, Thomas will skate with Anri Ravinskis and Chase Wouters. 

Abbotsford is one of the hottest teams in the AHL. Heading into Saturday, they sit second in the Pacific Division with 20 points through 14 games. The AHL Canucks have won eight of their last 10 games and have not lost back-to-back games since the beginning of October.
