Canucks' Travis Hamonic: Reporting to AHL Abbotsford

Hamonic has returned from his personal leave and will report to AHL Abbotsford in the coming days.

Hamonic will presumably practice with Abbotsford and get up to speed after missing training camp and the first two weeks of the season. The 31-year-old will likely need some time before he's an option for the big club, where he'd eventually be in line for a defense-first role in the top four.
