Mueller debuted last year with 39 points in 64 games, serving as a key rookie on the way to Abbotsford\u2019s 2025 Calder Cup title. The efforts got him into two games with the big club, where he didn\u2019t record any points.<\/p>\n<p>This season the Edmonton, Alberta native has continued to progress, sitting second in team scoring with 35 points in 59 games. Abbotsford has iced a younger forward corps this year, and ranking 30th in the AHL, they won\u2019t be defending their championship this spring. With that in mind, the similarly bottom-feeding Vancouver has little to lose in giving the 23-year-old another look.<\/p>\n<p>With a forecast projected to land somewhere in the bottom six level, Mueller is not among the Canucks\u2019 highest end prospects, hovering more in the 5-10 range. Yet for a player chosen 105th overall, the lefty has made a strong case to crack Vancouver\u2019s lineup starting next fall, particularly as they\u2019ll turn the roster over to more young players. Mueller\u2019s AHL production has already surpassed his expectations, and with a season far lost, Vancouver fans will hope to watch a successful audition as he continues to grow into a future NHLer. At 5\u201911\u201d, he brings a very well rounded game.<\/p>\n<p>Evidently, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/s\/sassoma01.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Max Sasson<\/a> is expected to return to the lineup tonight in a whimsical battle between the NHL\u2019s best and worst team. As a result Mueller is not expected to play, but the youngster will enjoy the call-up nonetheless, looking ahead to tomorrow\u2019s action in Minnesota as a chance to appear in his third NHL game.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ahead of tonight\u2019s game against Colorado, the Vancouver Canucks announced that prospect Ty Mueller has been recalled from&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":535710,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5128],"tags":[401,894,5,4,405,8661,893,27,5313],"class_list":{"0":"post-535709","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-vancouver-canucks","8":"tag-ahl","9":"tag-canucks","10":"tag-hockey","11":"tag-nhl","12":"tag-transactions","13":"tag-ty-mueller","14":"tag-vancouver","15":"tag-vancouver-canucks","16":"tag-vancouvercanucks"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nhl\/116332391622655417","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535709","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=535709"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/535709\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/535710"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=535709"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=535709"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nhl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=535709"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
