History
In 2002-03, Aaron Gagnon broke into major junior hockey with the Seattle Thunderbirds of the WHL. He was a pleasant surprise even though jumped around all four lines. This was due to injuries or absences of other veteran players.
During his 2003-04 sophomore crusade, he missed the first nine games with a broken wrist. Injured and playing with a brace, he found his way back onto the roster a lot earlier than he expected. He ended up being the teams fourth leading scorer and lead all Thunderbird players in plus/minus. Gagnon also played for the Canadian Under-18 team at the 2004 IIHF World Under-18 Hockey Championship in Minsk, Belarus.
