Woo (upper body) was placed on waivers by the Canucks on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
With his waiver designation, Woo will have been medically cleared by the team and should be headed for AHL Abbotsford, assuming he passes through waivers. The 25-year-old defenseman has never appeared in an NHL game, so it would be a little surprising to see a team pick him up. Woo generated 18 points in 67 regular-season games for Abbotsford last year and should be on the short list of potential call-ups once he gets his legs under him.

Canucks' Jett Woo: Moves to non-roster list
Rotowire
Woo (upper body) was put on non-roster injured reserve Monday.
Woo is month-to-month after undergoing offseason surgery to address an upper-body injury. He had two goals and 18 points in 67 regular-season appearances for AHL Abbotsford in 2024-25. Once he's healthy, he could be waived by the Canucks to return him to the minors, or he could stay with the big club as a depth defender.

Canucks' Jett Woo: Recovering from surgery
Rotowire
Woo had surgery for an upper-body injury in the offseason and is considered month-to-month, Patrick Johnston of The Province reports Wednesday.
Woo likely wouldn't be an option for the NHL roster anyway, but the 25-year-old blueliner is on a two-way contract this year. He sustained the injury last season and played through it during AHL Abbotsford's playoff run. In the likely event Woo's recovery lasts into the regular season, he may begin 2025-26 on the Canucks' injured non-roster list until he is cleared to play.

Canucks' Jett Woo: Pens two-way deal
Rotowire
Woo signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Canucks on Tuesday.
Woo registered two goals, 18 points, 90 PIM and a plus-14 rating over 67 regular-season appearances with AHL Abbotsford in 2024-25. The right-shot blueliner also had one goal and five helpers across 22 appearances during the team's Calder Cup championship run. The 2018 second-round pick has never suited up in an NHL game, so he shouldn't be expected to see time with the big club in 2025-26.

Canucks' Jett Woo: Up from AHL
Rotowire
Woo was summoned from AHL Abbotsford on Wednesday.
Woo has five goals, 18 points and 41 PIM in 44 AHL contests this season. The 23-year-old defenseman hasn't played in the NHL yet, but with Carson Soucy (hand) joining fellow blueliners Guillaume Brisebois (undisclosed) and Tucker Poolman (head) on the long-term injured reserve list, it's possible Woo could make his debut as early as Thursday versus Seattle.
