The Vancouver Canucks haven’t made anything easy this season, and with a pair of veterans sidelined, things are bound to get tougher.
Per Jon Abbott, the Canucks have lost two blueliners, with Alexander Edler and Chris Tanev battling injuries:

The team has recalled prized prospect Troy Stetcher from the Utica Comets of the AHL, per the team’s official Twitter page:
Tanev missed the final three games in October before returning against the Montreal Canadiens.
