UPDATE | Oliver Ekman-Larsson injury update and it's looking good for the Canucks

The Canucks announced during the game that Oliver Ekman-Larsson would not be coming back.

Today we were given an update on his status and Tocchet stated that OEL was unlikely to play. We also learned later that he went for X-rays.

No timeline was given at this point, but it is expected that he won't be playing on Saturday. Though, if he were to be out for a long time the Canucks would be presented with a golden opportunity. More news to come.
