Rick Tocchet said “I just went with the guys that I thought could get us back in the game” when asked about JT Miller’s limited ice time in the 3rd period.
When asked if it had to do with any sort of injury to Miller, Tocchet answered with a blunt “no” #Canucks @sportsnet650.bsky.social

Ty Young is expected to make his Abbotsford #Canucks debut today.
He'll face a Coachella Valley Firebirds team that carries a 10-2-0-1 all time record versus the Canucks.
A great opportunity for the former Prince George Cougar.
