Vancouver, B.C. – Vancouver Canucks Senior Vice-President and General Manager Dave Nonis announced today that the Canucks have reduced their training camp roster by 10 players. The Vancouver Canucks will now have 55 players attending the main training camp in Whistler and Vancouver, September 12th – 18th.

The following players have been assigned to their junior clubs:
Name Pos Team League
Bliznak, Mario Centre Vancouver Giants WHL
Butcher, Matt Centre Chilliwack Chiefs BCHL
Fredheim, Kris Defenceman Notre Dame Hounds SJHL
Vincent, Alexandre Goaltender Chicoutimi Saugenees QMJHL

The following players have been released:

nothing too surprising I guess... maybe other than Vincent. But I suppose the Chicoutimi training camp should be starting soon.
