After two games with the Abbotsford Canucks this season, prospect Gabriel Chiarot has been re-assigned to the OHL.

After starting the season in the AHL, Vancouver Canucks prospect Gabriel Chiarot has been re-assigned to the OHL. He will join his former junior club, the Kitchener Rangers, with whom he won the Memorial Cup back in May. 

The 2026-27 season has not gotten off to an ideal start for Chiarot. The forward, who was selected in the sixth-round of the 2025 NHL Draft by Vancouver, started the season with the Abbotsford Canucks but only played in two of the team's 12 games thus far. In his two AHL games, Chiarot put up one assist. 

This was Chiarot's first season playing at the AHL level. Previously, he spent nearly three years in the OHL with the Brampton/Mississauga Steelheads, putting up 41 goals and 29 assists in 145 games. During the 2025-26 season, he was traded to Kitchener where he put up five goals and six assists in 31 games before the Rangers' OHL playoff run. Chiarot won both the OHL Playoffs and the 2026 Memorial Cup with Kitchener. 

Kitchener currently sits sixth in the OHL's Western Conference with a record of 10-6-2-1. Their next game takes place on Thursday, November 12, when they take on the Erie Otters at 9:00 am PCT.
