Alriksson has to explode this year or else there's very little chance he will ever be worth a contract. Canucks retain his rights until Jun 1st 2027 but this is a critical year for him.
Minimum going to need to be putting up a point per game in the OHL to have a chance at being signed. 0.5PPG like last year just isn't going to cut it without being an extremely polished defensive player.
