Vancouver Canucks winger Brock Boeser out with upper-body injury

Apr 5, 2022 | 12:22 PM

Vancouver Canucks forward Brock Boeser is out with an upper-body injury. 

The team announced the news Tuesday after the right-winger appeared to suffer an injury in Vancouver’s 3-2 overtime loss to the Vegas Golden Knights on Sunday. 

Boeser got caught up in teammate Elias Pettersson’s hit on Ben Hutton late in the second period and fell to the ice in pain. He skated off holding his arm and went directly to the locker room, but returned to play in the third period. 

Boeser has 38 points (19 goals, 19 assists) in 64 games this season. 

Set to become a restricted free agent this summer, the 25-year-old native of Burnsville, Minn., had a career-high 56 points (26 goals, 30 assists) in his sophomore campaign in 2018-19.
