In as close to a must-win game as the Vancouver Canucks have had all season, they'll be getting a massive boost to their lineup.
Conor Garland, who missed Tuesday's game with an undisclosed injury, returns as the Canucks take on the St. Louis Blues on Thursday.
Sportsnet 650's Brendan Batchelor reported that the winger was on the ice for warmups in St. Louis.
The 29-year-old has been playing through numerous injuries, per head coach Rick Tocchet, and was sidelined against the Winnipeg Jets as a result. It was the first game he missed since the 2022-23 season.
Garland has 17 goals and 41 points in 67 games.
The Canucks take on the Blues looking to gain important ground in the Western Conference wild-card race. Watch all the action at 7:30 p.m. ET / 4:30 p.m. PT.
