Vancouver Canucks forward Tyler Toffoli will return to the team's lineup for Game 2 of their series against the Vegas Golden Knights Tuesday, the team announced.
The 28-year-old has been out of action since Aug. 2 after suffering an injury in the qualifying round against the Minnesota Wild.
The Canucks acquired Toffoli in February, and he quickly became a key player in the lineup. He recorded six goals and four assists in 10 games before the coronavirus pandemic paused the 2019-20 season on March 12.
The club is scratching forward Loui Eriksson - who appeared in their last 10 games - to make room for Toffoli. He recorded 0 points in that span.
Vancouver was shut out 5-0 by the Golden Knights in Game 1 of their series.
