In the upcoming game, Vlasic will be a game-time decision for the Blackhawks against the Canucks. Seth Jones remains out, and if Vlasic can't play, they'll have to call up another defenseman. The Canucks struggled in the first period, with minimal puck possession and testing of the Blackhawks' goalie. The Minnesota Wild took a 1-0 lead against the Canucks, with Foligno scoring assisted by Gaudreau. Petr Mrazek started in goal for the Blackhawks, with Vlasic out due to an upper-body injury.
