The Canucks recalled Jonathan Lekkerimäki from their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Abbotsford Canucks, this weekend. The 20-year-old was originally selected 15th overall in the 2022 NHL Draft by Vancouver and traveled to North America at the end of last season. Lekkerimäki made his AHL debut and played six games totaling two points in that span.

Lekkerimäki has five goals and two assists for seven points in seven AHL games this season.

The Canucks should face the Calgary Flames on November 12, where Lekkerimäki could make his highly anticipated NHL debut.
