Tanev (undisclosed) will not play on Thursday.

Tanev was not on the ice for the Canucks morning skate, so he must have suffered the injury on Tuesday vs. the Jets. The team did not specify too much information on Tanev’s status, so consider him day-to-day. He will replaced by Yannick Weber in the lineup tonight.

Tanev suffered an injury in Wednesday's season opener that forced him to miss practice on Thursday, but he was back on the ice Friday and could be in the lineup when they take on the Oilers. Tanev will be evaluated tomorrow and then a decision will be made.
