The Vancouver Canucks have officially sent prospect Braeden Cootes back to the WHL, where he will continue his development with the Seattle Thunderbirds. This decision follows his brief stint with the Canucks during the preseason, where he showcased his skill but ultimately didn’t make the final roster. Cootes, a promising forward, was drafted by the Canucks and is expected to gain more experience and playing time in the junior league.
The move reflects the Canucks' commitment to developing their young talent appropriately. Sending him back to the Thunderbirds allows Cootes not only to play in a more significant role but also to continue honing his skills against other junior players. His progress will be key for the Canucks as they look to build a competitive team for the future.
Fans of the Canucks are hopeful that this decision will pay off, as many believe Cootes has the potential to become a valuable asset for the team in the coming years. As he re-joins the Thunderbirds, the focus will be on his development and contributions to the junior league, while Canucks management keeps a close eye on his progress.
