Edler (leg) joined the Canucks at practice Sunday, Thomas Drance of The Athletic Vancouver reports.

EDGE Analysis

Edler's leg was cut by a skate in Saturday's contest against Calgary but it appears he avoided any major damage. Barring a setback, he should be good to go for Monday's rematch with the Flames.

Edler (leg) was cut on a skate in the third period of Saturday's 3-0 loss to the Flames. After the game, head coach Travis Green didn't know how serious the injury was, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

EDGE Analysis

Adding insult to literal injury, Edler was called for an interference minor on a neutral-zone collision with Matthew Tkachuk. Edler was hurt when Tkachuk's skate came up as he fell, catching Edler in the left leg below the knee. The 34-year-old defenseman is a critical part of the Canucks' blue line -- missing him for any amount of time would be bad for the team. An update on his status should surface prior to Monday's rematch with the Flames.

Edler produced an assist, three blocked shots and three shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers.

The helper was his first point of the year to go with four hits and three blocks. The 34-year-old usually provides a well-rounded stat line -- he had 33 points, 162 blocked shots and 108 hits in 59 outings last year.

EDGE Analysis

Edler (ear) is expected to be fine for Friday's Game 6, Rick Dhaliwal of TSN 1040 Vancouver reports.

EDGE Analysis

Edler was cut by a skate during the second period of Wednesday's Game 5 win over the Blues, but he shouldn't be forced to miss any further action as a result. However, if his prognosis changes, another update on his status will undoubtedly surface prior to Game 6. The 34-year-old blueliner has picked up four assists through Vancouver's first nine postseason contests.

EDGE Analysis

Edler appeared to be cut on the ear by Jordan Kyrou's skate late in the second period. The 34-year-old blueliner immediately required the attention of team doctors in the locker room. It's unclear if the injury will affect Edler's availability for Friday's Game 6.

EDGE Analysis

Edler also skated a team-high 24:06 in the contest. The Swedish blueliner collected 33 points, 162 blocks and 108 hits in 59 outings during the regular season. Edler's usage is that of a shutdown defenseman, but he's more than capable of chipping in on offense as well.

EDGE Analysis

Edler was back in action after suffering an undisclosed injury in practice Saturday. The blueliner averaged 22:37 of ice time this season during the regular season and was likely just being eased back Wednesday. Fantasy players should expect him to take on more minutes heading into Sunday's clash with Minnesota.
