Vancouver Canucks officially activate Dakota Joshua off IR

by

The Vancouver Canucks are getting bruising forward Dakota Joshua back ahead of their matchup against the Dallas Stars on Thursday.

General manager Patrik Allvin announced Joshua was activated off injured reserve after missing seven weeks with a hand injury.

Joshua suffered the injury on Feb. 13 against the Chicago Blackhawks after fighting MacKenzie Entwistle.

The 27-year-old has enjoyed a breakout year under Rick Tocchet, setting a career-high in goals (13) and points (26) in 53 games. Prior to his injury, Joshua and his linemates made up one of the most effective third lines in hockey.

You can watch the Canucks and Stars in a potential Western Conference Final preview on Sportsnet Pacific and Sportsnet+ starting at 10 p.m. ET / 7 p.m. PT.
