Impact Sasson has played well in limited duty with the Canucks. The 24-year-old has one goal, four assists, a plus-3 rating and 11 shots on goal in 12 games, while averaging only 9:57 of ice time. Sasson will likely see bottom-six minutes versus the Kraken on Saturday, if he enters the lineup.

Sent to AHL Sasson was reassigned to AHL Abbotsford on Friday.

Impact Sasson has four assists in nine appearances with Vancouver in 2024-25. The timing of this demotion is a touch awkward because Sasson registered two assists in the Canucks' 4-0 win over Florida on Thursday.

Unless a trade happens, Vancouver will presumably recall Sasson or another forward before Saturday's tilt against the Bruins.

First multi-point effort Sasson notched two assists, two shots on goal, a plus-2 rating and four blocked shots in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Panthers.

Impact This was Sasson's first multi-point effort at the NHL level, snapping a six-game slump. He had opened his career with an assist in each of his first two outings. If the 24-year-old stays in the NHL moving forward, he'll likely have to play on the wing -- the return of J.T. Miller (personal) gives the Canucks their preferred options at center. Sasson has four helpers, seven shots on net, six hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through nine contests.
