Dakota Joshua-2
The Vancouver Canucks will have some new faces in the lineup for Thursday’s game against the Dallas Stars, as head coach Rick Tocchet confirmed that Dakota Joshua and Arshdeep Bains will be in the lineup.
Joshua will play for the first first time since suffering an upper-body injury in Vancouver’s 4-2 win over the Blackhawks in Chicago on Feb. 13.
The physical winger, who’s set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, has a career-high 26 points (13 goals, 13 assists) this season.
Bains, 23, played five games for the NHL team in February before being sent back to Abbotsford.
“I’d like to see where (Bains is) at,” Tocchet said on Wednesday.
The Canucks can clinch a playoff spot if they defeat the Stars in any fashion. You can watch the game live on Sportsnet and Sportsnet+ at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT.
