Canucks' Jack Skille: Won't play Sunday

Skille (groin) will not play in Sunday's game against the Flyers, Ben Kuzma of the Vancouver Province reports.

Analysis:

Skille exited Saturday's game early due to the groin issue, but his absence from Sunday's contest shouldn't have a large overall impact from a fantasy perspective. Reid Boucher will slot back into the lineup Sunday in his place, but he's tallied just three points over 18 games with three different clubs this season and is averaging just 8:10 of ice time since joining the Canucks. Skille will get the bye week to rest up, with his next chance to return arriving Saturday against the Sharks.
