There were two moves, both involving who will see time in the crease. In a Twitter release, Vancouver Canucks general manager Jim Benning said:
“Jacob Markstrom has been granted a leave of absence to attend to a family matter and is expected to rejoin the Canucks on the road this weekend. Respectfully, we will not offer any further comment.” -Benning
Jacob Markstrom was unavailable for media following the Canucks’ shootout victory over the Philadelphia Flyers. This led many reporters to speculate that he may be battling an injury, however, it is still not 100% clear that is not the case.
