Goldobin (illness) won't play Thursday against the Islanders due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
With Goldobin unavailable Thursday, the Canucks will only have 11 healthy forwards at their disposal against the Isles, which means defenseman Alex Biega will likely move up and slot into a bottom-six role against New York. Goldobin hasn't been diagnosed with mumps, so if he's dealing with a more typical illness he could return to the lineup as soon as Saturday against Pittsburgh.
