After a scary hit in a game on Sunday against the Toronto Marlies, Canucks’ top defence prospect Chris Tanev has been cleared to play and may return to the Chicago Wolves lineup on Thursday when Abbotsford visits.

Tanev's status is a relief for the team's brass as he is the first call up from Chicago. With Keith Ballard and Aaron Rome already hurt, we could see the youngster back in Vancouver shortly.

Tanev had a tough outing in CBJ, probably a good time to get Alberts in a game.

While Tanev's 'rough game' never showed up on the box score, it was a large reason why the score was relatively close. Expect Andrew Alberts to draw in if coach Alain Vigneault is comfortable using him on the right side.
