4 years agoThe Vancouver Canucks will be back in action next week after being idle for nearly two weeks due to a COVID-19 outbreak. It's great news for fantasy managers who have been hanging on the Canucks players, although it must be noted that they are scheduled to play just twice. The team had over 20 players and multiple coaches infected with the virus. The NHL was forced to postpone seven Canucks games, but there are hopes that the team can still complete its schedule, with an extension of the regular season already announced. On a positive note, star center Elias Pettersson (upper body) has at least had some extra time to recover and his return shouldn't take long now. The likes of Pettersson, J.T. Miller, Brock Boeser, Quinn Hughes and Bo Horvat are still very valuable fantasy pieces, but if you have any other skaters from the team rostered, then you should consider alternatives from the waiver wire.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
