Thompson (undisclosed) was placed on waivers Sunday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
Thompson started the 2026-27 campaign on Vancouver's non-roster injured list. Now that he's healthy, he will likely head to AHL Abbotsford if he clears waivers. Thompson notched six goals and 25 points in 56 AHL regular-season appearances between Abbotsford and San Jose in 2025-26.
