Over the past few games, the Vancouver Canucks have been struggling defensively, with one of the most recent games being a 7-2 loss to the San Jose Sharks.
The absence of Alexander Edler has proven to impact the Canucks on various levels.
On Feb. 4, the Canucks played the Philadelphia Flyers, and at 9:35 into the third period, Edler took a fall that left him bleeding motionless on the ice, forcing him to get stretchered off.
The good news is that he had zero facial fractures, only receiving a concussion, and face lacerations that required stitches.
