The Canucks have taken a big step forward when GM Patrik Allvin took a trip to Boston to meet with the team's best NCAA Prospect Aidan McDonough. The Canucks have stated that they were very interested in signing the current captain of the NorthEastern University, they will lose his rights if they fail to sign him before Aug. 15th, 2023.
Just like every other NCAA player, it is expected that McDonough will end the present NCAA season before signing his first pro contract. His season ends at the start of March and could be available when his team loses in the playoffs.
