Canucks Re-sign Guillaume Brisebois to One-Year, Two-Way Deal

The contract formalizes his role as veteran depth in Abbotsford and signals the club’s choice to keep experienced players close while he continues recovering from recent injuries.

Overview

  • The Canucks announced Tuesday that they signed Brisebois to a one-year, two-way contract for the 2026-27 season.
  • The deal carries a $900,000 NHL salary and guarantees $325,000 at the AHL level, reflecting the two-way pay structure that pays differently depending on which league he plays in.
  • Brisebois was a third-round pick in 2015 and is entering his 10th season in the Canucks system on his fourth contract, which is the first to pay him above the league minimum.
  • His recent availability has been limited by major injuries, including a concussion in the 2023-24 preseason and knee surgery that kept him out until spring, which reduced his games played over the last two seasons.
  • The club projects Brisebois to be a regular on Abbotsford’s blueline next year, where he will provide veteran leadership for prospects and serve as organizational depth that could be called up if needed.
