VANCOUVER — Daniel Sedin was a no-show at the Vancouver Canucks workout Tuesday morning but skated with teammates after practice.
Sedin, out with a concussion since March 21, was expected to take part in his second practice before Wednesday’s first-round playoff series opener against the Los Angeles Kings.

Sedin was injured when he took an elbow in the head from Chicago Blackhawks defenceman Duncan Keith. The NHL handed Keith a five-game suspension.
Sedin led the Canucks in goals during the regular season with 30 and compiled a total of 67 points. He missed nine games, but the Canucks still won eight games in his absence.
Tuesday’s workout was Vancouver’s last full practice before Game 1. He took part in his first on-ice workout with the team Monday since being injured.
