Canucks' Nathan Smith: Agrees to one-year deal

Smithpenned a one-year, two-way contract with the Canucks on Monday.

Smith has just 14 games of NHL experience, all with the Coyotes, but has primarily served as a minor-league option. Selected by the Jets in the third round of the 2018 NHL Entry Draft, the 25-year-old center will be hard-pressed to make the Opening Night roster for Vancouver. Instead, expect Smith to spend the bulk of the 2024-25 season with AHL Abbotsford.
