Matt Irwin was reassigned to the Abbotsford Canucks (AHL) earlier on Monday, making room for Soucy to return to the Vancouver lineup. Soucy has not played since suffering a hand injury on January 20th. A steadying presence on the blue line, Soucy has been limited to only 21 games this season due to an earlier lower-body injury and is five weeks into his original five-to-six-week prognosis. The 29-year-old has six points (2G / 4A), 21 hits, and 39 blocks this season.
