LATEST | Interesting changes on the line-up; Surprise returnee at practice: Lindholm shines by his absence
The Canucks came up big against the Flames and took a 4-1 win to their fans at the Rogers Arena.
Today, they were back at practice as they prepare for their next outing, as they'll be playing the Los Angeles Kings on Monday.
SURPRISES AND LINE UP CHANGES
It was confirmed that Elias Lindholm was given a maintenance day which only raises more concern about the possible injury he's been dealing with since joining the Canucks. Dakota Joshua skated with the team for the first time in quite a while.
Elias Lindholm shined by his absence, which led to Tocchet restructuring his lines. Di Giuseppe skated alongside Boeser and Miller as Pius Suter took the middle between Podkolzin and Aman.
When it comes to defence, Ian Cole was back on the top six alongside Carson Soucy:
#Canucks at practice today
Höglander-EP40-Garland
PDG-Miller-Boeser
Podkolzin-Suter-Aman
Mikheyev-Blueger-Lafferty
no Lindholm
Joshua (in non-contact)
Hughes-Myers
Zadorov-Hronek
Soucy-Cole
Friedman-Juulsen
With Thatcher Demko and Dakota Joshua already on the sidelines. If Tocchet needs to add Lindholm to the list of unavailable players, it would surely make it harder on the Canucks' to win the Western Conference.
