The Vancouver Canucks lost Henrik Sedin to injury, at least for the duration of Saturday's game in San Jose, and possibly Monday in Los Angeles.
The captain suffered an upper-body injury in the first period and was deemed unable to return, the club announced.
The injury is believed to have occurred on a first-period hit delivered by Brent Burns. Chris Tanev also left the game in the third period with an undisclosed injury.
Coach Desjardins had no update on the injuries to either Henrik Sedin or Chris Tanev, but doesn't expect Henrik available Monday in L.A.

Sedin saw only 3:36 of ice time in the game, recording one shot on goal. He has 10 goals and 38 assists.
Tanev will remain with the club, according to the Vancouver Province's Ben Kuzma.
