The Vancouver Canucks announced on Tuesday that defenseman Victor Mancini has been assigned to the AHL's Abbotsford Canucks. Additionally, Abbotsford reassigned forward Gabriel Chiarot to the Ontario Hockey League's Kitchener Rangers on Monday. Mancini joins Abbotsford after playing eight of Vancouver's 20 games this season, while Chiarot heads back to junior hockey after appearing in just two AHL contests.
Mancini's reassignment follows Vancouver claiming defenseman Cameron Crotty off waivers to fill the 6th/7th defenseman role. Vancouver also placed forward Akil Thomas on waivers for the purpose of assignment to Abbotsford. Chiarot, a 2025 sixth-round pick, rejoins a Kitchener team where he previously won the 2026 Memorial Cup, entering his final season of CHL eligibility.
