Vancouver, BC (My Sportsbook) - Vancouver Canucks forward Taylor Pyatt will be sidelined indefinitely after breaking a bone in his right foot during a loss to Edmonton on Friday. Pyatt suffered the injury after blocking a second period shot. Ryan Johnson, Kevin Bieksa, and Darcy Hordichuk have all suffered similar foot injuries this season as a result of blocked shots. "It's definitely tough," said Hordichuk, who broke a bone in late November. "Once you get your boot off the foot just swells up so much. All the little bones in that area aren't moving quite the same so all the pressure is in that one area where it's broken." Pyatt has four goals and six assists in 36 games this season. |
