The Vancouver Canucks are finding strength in the AHL among their prospect players, particularly showcasing talents like Arshdeep Bains and Linus Karlsson. Midway through the season, Bains has become a crucial player for the Abbotsford Canucks, leading the team in scoring and demonstrating his ability to create opportunities.
