Vancouver Canucks defenceman Chris Tanev will play Friday night versus the Winnipeg Jets, according to Sportsnet’s Dan Murphy.
Tanev suffered an upper-body injury during Thursday’s game against the Chicago Blackhawks that forced him out. In 16 games this season, Tanev has four points, four penalty minutes and is plus-six.
Puck drop for the Canucks and Jets is at 8 p.m. ET/ 5 p.m. PT on Friday in Winnipeg.
