Bains was undrafted in all of his years of draft eligibility and signed with his hometown Vancouver Canucks over the offseason. He played last year in the AHL for the Abbotsford Canucks and at the start of this year where he improved with 39 points in 42 games.
Unfortunately, Bains has yet to get his first NHL point but at only 23 years old, it looks like he has many NHL points ahead of himself.
