InjuryInjury
Boeser underwent successful hand surgery and will be out 3-to-4 weeks.

Boeser suffered a hand injury in Saturday's training camp session and underwent surgery on Monday. Boeser is expected to miss the first 1-to-2 weeks of the regular season. Boeser's injury will open the door for someone like Conor Garland or Nils Hoglander to move up into the Canucks' top-6 for a short period of time.

Chytil (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.

Chytil was hurt last Thursday against the Islanders and missed Saturday's game in Boston. However, he was on the ice for Monday's practice and will be a game-time decision on Tuesday, so there's a good chance he's back in the lineup vs. the Hurricanes.

Chytil suffered an upper-body injury against the Islanders on Thursday and is not expected to play Saturday in Boston. With both Chytil and Andrew Copp (lower-body) not likely to be available, look for two of Jonny Brodzinski, Greg McKegg and/or Julien Gauthier to draw into the lineup.
