One player who is still unsigned heading into the 2025-26 season is center Robby Fabbri. The 29-year-old spent last season with the Anaheim Ducks, but only played in 44 games due to injury. While the Canucks do have a full roster heading into training camp, signing Fabbri to a PTO could be a smart move for the organization. A benefit of bringing in Fabbri on a PTO is that it adds another layer of competition in camp. The now-former Ducks [http://thn.com/anaheim] center has played 442 regular-season games and won the Stanley Cup with the St. Louis Blues [http://thn.com/stlouis] in 2019. Fabbri also has a connection with Vancouver, as Todd Harvey, who is currently the organization's Director of Amateur Scouting, was his assistant coach during his time in the OHL [http://thn.com/ohl] with the Guelph Storm. While Fabbri did struggle last season, he has been productive throughout his career. He scored 18 goals during the 2023-24 campaign and has recorded at least 25 points in five of nine seasons. Fabbri has also shown a willingness to get pucks on net, as he has recorded at least 100 shot attempts in each of the last two seasons.

The 29-year-old should come to camp motivated, and could prove to be a valuable addition to the bottom-six if signed before the season starts. Ultimately, signing Fabbri to a PTO is a low-risk, high-reward move that could prove to be beneficial for Vancouver this year.
