7 years agoVancouver Canucks goalie Jacob Markstrom missed practice on Thursday with an illness, which makes him questionable to play on Friday night against Minnesota. The 28-year-old has had some really nice performances recently, including a 39-save effort against Nashville, so it would certainly be a blow for him personally to miss out. Anders Nilsson will take over if Markstrom can't go. Nilsson had a really strong start to the year, which included two shutouts in the first three appearances, but he's picked up just one win since December. His last start was on Feb. 23 against Vegas in which he gave up five goals before being pulled ahead of the final period.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
