Playing career Junior Brisebois was selected by the Acadie–Bathurst Titan in the first round (5th overall) in the 2013 Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) draft.

In December 2015, he signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Canucks. Beginning in 2017, Brisebois regularly played for the Canucks American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Utica Comets, and later for the Abbotsford Canucks.
On February 14, 2019, Brisebois made his NHL debut with the Canucks in a 4–3 shootout win against the Los Angeles Kings.
On October 30, 2020, Brisebois re-signed with Vancouver to a one-year, $700,000 contract. In March 2023, after appearing in nine games with the team, Brisebois signed a two-year extension with the Canucks.
