The Vancouver Canucks announced Friday that forward Lane Pederson has been recalled from the team's AHL affiliate, the Abbotsford Canucks.

Vancouver acquired Pederson from the Carolina Hurricanes in October, in the trade that also saw the team acquire defenseman Ethan Bear in exchange for a fifth-round pick in the 2023 NHL Draft.

An AHL regular, Pedersen has played in 44 career NHL games, recording five points. In 18 games with the Abbotsford Canucks this season, the 25-year-old has collected 17 goals and seven assists for a total of 24 points.
