Sutter (abdomen) is no longer on injured reserve and is cleared for training camp, the team announced Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

An abdominal injury led to Sutter missing the final two months of the season last year. In total, the natural center played in just 26 games in 2018-19 due to injuries, which limited him to a mere six points. If the New York native can stay healthy, he should be capable of pushing for the 30-point mark again, though he may be limited to a bottom-six role with the emergence of Elias Pettersson.

Sutter will be sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks after undergoing surgery to address a sports hernia on his right side.

EDGE Analysis

The Canucks evidently wanted to see if Sutter would be able to recover fully without going under the knife, but it appears as though he hasn't made enough progress in his recovery over the past few weeks for that to be a possibility. Unless Vancouver makes a deep playoff run, Sutter's season has likely come to an end. If that ends up being the case, the veteran forward will finish the campaign with a mere six points in 26 appearances.

Sutter (undisclosed) will be sidelined for at least two weeks.

EDGE Analysis

Sutter's lengthy absence will test Vancouver's depth up front, but it won't impact any fantasy lineups, as he's only picked up six points in 26 games this campaign. The 30-year-old pivot will need to be activated off injured reserve prior to returning to the lineup, so another update on his status will undoubtedly surface once that occurs.

Sutter (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Irfaan Gaffar of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

While the nature of Sutter's injury remains unclear, he won't be eligible to return until Feb. 21 against Arizona at the earliest. The 30-year-old already missed 30 games earlier this season with a shoulder injury, limiting him to just 26 appearances on the year.

Sutter (undisclosed) will not suit up for Monday's game against San Jose, Jeff Paterson of TSN 1040 Vancouver reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sutter was a late scratch and it's unclear what type of injury he's dealing with. He missed 30 games after separating his shoulder near the end of October, so it's possible that his latest injury is related.

Sutter registered two shots on goal in 19:14 of ice time against the Habs on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

It was the first game back from a 30-game stint on the sidelines for Sutter. The center clearly didn't have any issues with his conditioning, as he played over 19 minutes -- likely in part due to the injury to Elias Pettersson (lower body). If the rookie phenom misses any time, Sutter figures to slot into his spot on the second line.

EDGE Analysis

Sutter figures to slot back into the lineup against Montreal on Thursday now that he is healthy. The center's return ends a 30-game stint on the sidelines dating back to Oct. 29. In order to make room on the 23-man roster, the Canucks designated Josh Leivo (upper body) for injured reserve.

Sutter (shoulder) is nearing a return from injury and could suit up as early as Thursday's clash with Montreal, per Jeff Paterson of TSN 1040 Vancouver.

EDGE Analysis

Sutter hasn't played since Oct. 29, a stretch of 28 games on the sidelines. The center notched four points in 13 games prior to getting hurt and figures to slot into a bottom-six role once given the green light to return to the ice. In the meantime, Markus Granlund and Jay Beagle figure to see plenty of ice time in Sutter's stead.

Sutter (shoulder) won't be in the lineup versus the Oilers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Sutter will miss his 27th game due to his shoulder injury, but appears to be nearing a return. With the emergence of Elias Pettersson, the 29-year-old Sutter figures to be stuck in a third-line role for the remainder of the season, which will limit his opportunities to record a fifth 30-plus point campaign.

Sutter (shoulder) has been skating on his own, Jeff Paterson of TSN 1040 Vancouver reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sutter still remains without a firm time table for his return, but the last report suggested he won't be back until after the Christmas break. He's only appeared in 13 games this season, and will miss at least five more games barring a fast tracked recovery. Getting on the ice is a good first step.
