The Canucks are “hopeful” that Markstrom will play Wednesday.

Markstrom did not play Monday vs. the Sharks due to a lower-body injury and that led to 19-year-old Mikey DiPietro getting lit up. The injury is obviously minor as the Canucks hope to have their No.1 goalie between the pipes tonight. They went out and acquired Marek Mazanec from the Rangers on Tuesday and he would likely start if Markstrom is unavailable.
