This year's Frozen Four is scheduled for April 11 and 13 with all three games taking place in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Here is a look at the four Canucks prospects left in the tournament.
Tom Willander- Boston University
2023 first-rounder Tom Willander has had a strong tournament for Boston University. The defender had two assists in the Terriers first-round series against RIT and followed it up by recording the primary assist on Case McCarthy's empty netter against the University of Minnesota in the semi-finals. Playing beside Toronto Maple Leafs prospect Cade Webber, he is projected to play a crucial role for Boston University during the Frozen Four.
Aiden Celebrini- Boston University
Listed as Boston University's extra defenceman, Aiden Celebrini has had an impact during the tournament. While he hasn't recorded any points, he did post a plus/minus of +2 against RIT in the first round. A solid depth player for the Terriers, the Canucks 2023 seventh-rounder is looking to share a title win with his brother, Macklin Celebrini.
Jack Malone- Boston College
Jack Malone was the hero for Boston College in their semi-final win over Quinnipiac. Vancouver's sixth-round pick from 2019 scored the game-winner in overtime, sending the Eagles to the Frozen Four for the first time since 2016. One of Boston Colleges' top players of the tournament so far, he has recorded three points and blocked seven shots through his team's first two games.
Jacob Truscott- University of Michigan
Jacob Truscott is leading by example over at the University of Michigan. The 2020 fifth-round pick has captained his team to the Frozen Four, recording one assist in two games. While reports courtesy of "Donnie and Dhali"'s Rick Dhaliwal have indicated he won't be signing with the Canucks, Vancouver will have until Aug. 15, 2024, to change his mind as that is when he is scheduled to come off of the protected list and become a free agent.
