Prust (ankle) is expected to return to the lineup for Saturday's game against the Blackhawks, Canucks play-by-play announcer Jon Abbott reports.

Analysis:

Prust was expected to be out 4-to-6 weeks after injuring his ankle in late October, but he is on track to return even earlier than the low end of his initial estimate. Prust will look to pick up where he left of after tallying five assists, a plus-three rating, and 25 PIM in his first nine games.
