27 Ben Hutton D

Canucks' Ben Hutton: Set to practice soon

The fact that Hutton is yet to start practicing with the team likely means he won't be ready in time for the Canucks' upcoming back-to-back Saturday and Sunday versus Calgary and Columbus, respectively, though no official timeline has come from the team. Once given the all-clear, the defenseman will bump Guillaume Brisebois or Ashton Sautner from the lineup.

Canucks' Ben Hutton: Not ready to return

Hutton continues sporting a walking boot on his injured foot and remains a ways away from returning to game action. Ashton Sautner will likely take Hutton's spot for Monday's road contest.

Canucks' Ben Hutton: Sporting walking boot

Hutton has already missed Vancouver's last three games due to a foot injury, and the fact that he's still in a walking boot suggests he's likely still a ways away from rejoining the lineup. The 25-year-old blueliner will need to return to practice with his teammates before returning to game action, so he can be considered out indefinitely until that occurs.

Canucks' Ben Hutton: No go Thursday

Hutton will miss a second straight game and remains without a clear-cut timetable for his recovery. The Canucks will hope to have him back as soon as possible, as he's been deployed in all situations since the beginning of February, averaging a whopping 26:41 of ice time per contest over that span.

Canucks' Ben Hutton: Unavailable against Toronto

It'll be hard for the Canucks to replace Hutton's contribution to the lineup, as he's been a minute-munching monster of late, averaging 26:41 of ice time per contest since the beginning of February. The 25-year-old's injury isn't believed to be overly serious, but he should probably be considered questionable at best for Thursday's clash with the Oilers at this juncture.
