Lain was assigned to AHL Utica on Thursday.
Analysis:
Lain showed some toughness on the fourth line for the Canucks in his nine-game stay with the parent club last season, but he'll head to Utica to refine the other developments of his game. He'll be called upon by Vancouver whenever they're in need of depth at forward.
