Canucks' Chris Tanev: Out for upcoming road trip

Tanev (ankle) will not returning to the Canucks during their upcoming four-game road trip that wraps up Dec. 13 against the Hurricanes, according to coach Willie Desjardins.

Analysis:

We're thinking that no one misses Tanev, an accomplished shot blocker, more than the goalies in Vancouver. With Ryan Miller and Jacob Markstrom splitting time between the pipes fairly evenly, the Canucks are allowing 2.96 goals per contest; only six teams have been performing at a worse rate.
