The Vancouver Canucks are positioned on the brink of becoming serious Stanley Cup contenders. However, to achieve this goal, the team must navigate some challenging decisions regarding their roster as they prepare for the upcoming season.
Many players are vying for a spot, and unfortunately, this means that some notable talents will be let go during the preseason and training camp.
In a significant move today, the Canucks placed two defensemen, Jett Woo and Guillaume Brisebois, on waivers. Brisebois missed last season due to injury, while Woo has spent several years with the Abbotsford Canucks without making a substantial impact.
It remains to be seen whether either player will clear waivers. Currently, it seems likely that they will be reassigned to Abbotsford, but outcomes can be unpredictable. This situation is undoubtedly disappointing for both players, though it may not come as a surprise.

Fans and the organization alike hope that Woo and Brisebois can find their footing and potentially make a splash in the NHL elsewhere. For the time being, the San Jose Sharks have the first opportunity to claim them if they choose.
