In a 6–3 win against the San Diego Gulls on Wednesday night, not only did they push their current win streak to 11 games, they also clinched a spot in the 2025 Calder Cup Playoffs.

Abbotsford’s playoff-clinching win comes at a time when the team has seen some of their biggest successes. Their last loss came against the San Jose Barracuda on March 7, during which they were shut out and gave up three goals. Since then, Abbotsford has surged to third in the Pacific Divison with 81 points on the season. In their 11-game win streak, they have scored 46 goals and only let in 23.
One of the most impressive parts of Abbotsford’s current win streak is the fact that they’re missing a plethora of key players, as Jonathan Lekkerimäki, Elias Pettersson (D), Aatu Räty, Linus Karlsson, Nils Åman, and Victor Mancini are currently with Vancouver. Part of the reason why Abbotsford has been able to continue this success is due to their offensive depth. Sammy Blais has put up 12 points during the team’s win streak, Arshdeep Bains has tallied 10, and rookie Ty Mueller has registered nine.
The Canucks will be a force to reckon with come Calder Cup playoff time. If they are able to win as convincingly as they can now without four of their top-10 leading scorers, they are sure to burst offensively once they welcome back the players currently with Vancouver.
Abbotsford clinches playoffs on the same night that Vancouver’s playoff chances virtually disappear. As it stands, Vancouver is poised to lose to the Seattle Kraken, dropping their playoff chances to less than 2%, per MoneyPuck.com. Canucks fans who are looking for a thrilling playoff run to follow can look into Abbotsford’s schedule upon the conclusion of the AHL regular season.
