Connor Garland’s status for Tuesday night is up in the air.
After the winger missed the team’s morning skate, head coach Rick Tocchet told reporters Garland is a game-time decision for the Vancouver Canucks‘ matchup with the Winnipeg Jets.
Garland, 29, played in Sunday’s game against the Utah Hockey Club, the second half of a back-to-back for Vancouver. He recorded two shots and was a minus-1 over 19:46 of ice time.
Filip Chytil, in concussion protocol after taking a hit from behind Saturday against the Chicago Blackhawks, also missed morning skate.
In other lineup news, Tocchet confirmed defenceman Elias Pettersson will return against the Jets after sitting out Sunday. Victor Mancini will draw out as a result, and Kevin Lankinen will start in goal for the Canucks.
Catch the game on Sportsnet Pacific and Sportsnet+ starting at 7 p.m. PT / 10 p.m. ET.
