Vancouver Canucks

Marco Rossi and Conor Garland did not practice on Thursday and will be out “at least a week,” Canucks coach Adam Foote said. Rossi, a center acquired from the Minnesota Wild on Dec. 12 in the trade for defenseman Quinn Hughes, sustained a lower-body injury and did not play the final 8:27 of a 6-3 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday. The 24-year-old has one goal and one assist in eight games since the trade after having 13 points (four goals, nine assists) in 17 games with the Wild. Garland, a right wing, ranks second for the Canucks with 22 points (seven goals, 15 assists) in 33 games this season despite missing games on three other occasions because of previous injuries. Foote said a forward would be recalled from Abbotsford of the American Hockey League. Vancouver has back-to-back games against the Seattle Kraken on Friday (10:30 p.m. ET; SNP, KONG, KING 5, KHN/Prime) and Boston Bruins on Saturday.
