    Jerome Miron-USA TODAY Sports - Canucks Forward Out Against Red Wings Due To Upper-Body Injury

    Vancouver Canucks forward Dakota Joshua will miss tonight's game against the Detroit Red Wings after picking up an upper-body injury.

    His injury was suffered during a fight against the Chicago Blackhawks in the last game. 

    Joshua had a goal and two assists in the game and completed the Gordie Howe hat-trick with his fight.

    Joshua had been on the Canucks second powerplay unit. Nils Höglander took his spot as the net-front presence this morning.

    Head coach Rick Tocchet didn't reveal any timeline for how long Joshua will be out of the lineup. Joshua and the Canucks 3rd line had been playing exceptionally well as of late. 

    His skating and physical presence will be missed in what will likely be a spirited game against the Red Wings tonight.
