Abbotsford Canucks

The Abbotsford Canucks first foray into the American Hockey League playoffs begins tonight (Tuesday) with a best-of-three series against the Bakersfield ...

Abbotsford’s offensive depth will eventually overwhelm the Condors, but I think it will take a little bit of time for the Canucks to adjust to all the new faces. Special teams will also play a huge factor and it really depends on how tight the game is called. The Canucks will also have to solve a very tough netminder in Stuart Skinner. All eyes of Canucks fans will be on Vasily Podkolzin, who could very easily be the best player in this series. @FPHCanucksbreaks down what will be a hotly contested series between the Canucks & @Condors: https://t.co/QBm9NEEP7g With all of that said, the Condors are a good team with a solid goaltender in Stuart Skinner who can steal a game or two. It's only fitting that the first ever regular-season game for the @AbbyCanucksis also their first ever playoff opponent. “This could be the best franchise in the American Hockey League over time. Bakersfield’s power play finished at 18.7 per cent, good for 21st in the league. Defensively they will be without Philip Broberg, who was called up to Edmonton for the NHL playoffs. Goalies Spencer Martin and Artrus Silovs, the team’s most valuable player Sheldon Dries and forwards Nic Petan and Will Lockwood all have been re-assigned to Abbotsford. Making his AHL debut will be Vancouver first-round pick Vasily Podkolzin. He recorded 14 goals and 12 assists in 79 games with Vancouver in his rookie campaign.

The winner came shortly after Griffith's late goal ended a shutout bid for Abborsford goalie Spencer Martin, who made 45 saves. The Condors lead the best-of- ...

The Canucks gave up the tying goal with seconds left in the third period before falling in overtime in Game 1 of their best-of-three series against the ...

Notes: Canucks forward Will Lockwood (2016, Rd. 3), who is battling an injury, did not dress. He needs to work hard and come in and play the same way. Martin turned away an early barrage of shots to keep the Condors at bay, making 20 saves in the first period — including several with his team short-handed. Meanwhile, Jett Woo, the right-handed defenceman taken by Vancouver in the second round of the 2018 NHL entry draft, continued his recent deployment as a forward, skating on the third line. The most notable scratch was 2021 second-round draft pick Danila Klimovich — a disappointing development for those who wanted to see the 19-year-old Belarusian play alongside his good friend Podkolzin. Podkolzin saw some power play time and was engaged all game, though he didn’t have much to show for his efforts through two periods.

Tim Schaller then pushed the puck wide on a short-handed rush as time expired. Cooper made a nice play to get it over to (Schaller), who got it to me and I was just lucky enough to tap it in.” “At that point (the Abbotsford goal) momentum started to shift a little bit, I felt it on the bench,” Chalk said.

This is basically Spencer Martin versus Bakersfield at this point. Martin faced a dizzying 47 shots in the game, while Abbotsford fired 31 at Condors goalie Stuart Skinner, who put in a strong game of his own. — Ben Lypka (@BenLypka)May 4, 2022 It was a game that Abbotsford may not have deserved to be in by the time the third period rolled around. — Ben Lypka (@BenLypka)May 4, 2022 — Ben Lypka (@BenLypka)May 4, 2022
