The Vancouver Canucks have announced that Sawyer Mynio has been signed to a three-year entry-level contract, the financial terms of which were not disclosed.
Mynio, 18, was a third-round pick of Vancouver at the 2023 draft. A member of the WHL champion Seattle Thunderbirds, the six-foot-one left-shot blueliner was ranked 62nd among North American skaters by NHL Central Scouting. He scored 31 points in 68 games last year, solid points production to go alongside a massive +50 plus/minus rating.
With some significant names graduating from Seattle, Mynio is set to play a larger role on their blueline moving forward. This entry-level deal is likely to end up sliding for two years, as Mynio will probably end up playing out two more years of major junior eligibility before joining the pro ranks in the Canucks organization.
