Canucks' Brandon Sutter: Out at least two weeks

Sutter's lengthy absence will test Vancouver's depth up front, but it won't impact any fantasy lineups, as he's only picked up six points in 26 games this campaign. The 30-year-old pivot will need to be activated off injured reserve prior to returning to the lineup, so another update on his status will undoubtedly surface once that occurs.

Sutter was a late scratch and it's unclear what type of injury he's dealing with. He missed 30 games after separating his shoulder near the end of October, so it's possible that his latest injury is related.

It was the first game back following a 30-game layoff for Sutter. The center clearly didn't have any issues with his conditioning, as he played over 19 minutes -- likely in part due to the injury to Elias Pettersson (lower body). If the rookie phenom misses any time, Sutter figures to slot into his spot on the second line.

Sutter figures to slot back into the lineup against Montreal on Thursday now that he is healthy. The center's return ends a 30-game stint on the sidelines dating back to Oct. 29. In order to make room on the 23-man roster, the Canucks designated Josh Leivo (upper body) for injured reserve.
