We're about to learn a lot about what this Vancouver team is and where it's headed over the course of this week.

It sounds like the Vancouver Canucks will be without their captain and leading scorer, Quinn Hughes, for the next three weeks. On his weekly appearance on Sekeres and Price, TSN’s Darren Dreger gave us an update on what he’s hearing surrounding a more narrowed-down timeline for the Canucks captain’s return: “Devastating.

The Vancouver Canucks are set to continue their postseason push without two of their key players, defenseman Quinn Hughes and forward Elias Pettersson, as injuries will keep both men on the sidelines for varying periods of time.

Hughes, a defenseman and the Canucks captain, and Pettersson, a center, are out with undisclosed injuries. They did not play in a 5-4 overtime loss to Seattle on Saturday.

An update on two of the Vancouver Canucks’ top players, though maybe not the most positive. When speaking to the media on Sunday, head coach Rick Tocchet revealed that neither forward Elias Pettersson nor captain Quinn Hughes will be joining the team on its upcoming road trip.

On Sunday, forward Elias Pettersson and defenseman Quinn Hughes were both notably absent from practice in spite of the rest of their teammates hitting the ice for a skate.

The Vancouver Canucks will be without two of their biggest names in today’s afternoon matchup against the Seattle Kraken. After neither player was seen at practice yesterday, Canucks Head Coach Rick Tocchet confirmed that both Elias Pettersson and Quinn Hughes would not be playing today.
