The Abbotsford Canucks are the affiliate team or “farm team” of the Vancouver Canucks. However, before they were located in Abbotsford, British Columbia, they were in Utica, New York. The Utica Comets were the Vancouver Canucks affiliate team from 2013-2021.  The team was then relocated to Abbotsford to bring them closer to their parent team, which had been a multi-year venture.
