Dakota Joshua is absent from the Vancouver Canucks' morning skate due to an upper body injury sustained in a previous game. Coach Rick Tocchet confirms Joshua will miss the upcoming game against the Detroit Red Wings and is considered 'week to week' for return. The team is expected to call up a forward from Abbotsford to compensate for Joshua's absence.
