Vancouver Canucks Provide An Unfortunate Update On Lindholm & Joshua
The Vancouver Canucks delivered some unfortunate news today, revealing that Elias Lindholm is sidelined with a troublesome wrist injury, while Dakota Joshua is grappling with a hand injury of his own.
Both players hit the ice for a skate ahead of the Canucks' matchup against the Ducks, but Lindholm's discomfort was evident as he struggled to don his glove during practice.
« Looked to be in discomfort just putting his glove on.
Fact someone with a wrist injury is skating isn't a big development.
Joshua skated while being out with his pinky injury.»
Despite his injury setback, Joshua managed to lace up for today's game against the Ducks, delivering an impressive performance with two goals, including the game-winner.
The 27-year-old winger has been a surprising standout this season, racking up 28 points in 55 games for the Canucks.
In contrast, Lindholm has faced challenges since joining Vancouver, tallying only 9 points in 22 games. However, if his injury turns out to be more serious than anticipated, it could spell trouble for the Canucks as they approach the playoffs.
