Canucks head coach Rick Tocchet offered his first replace on Boeser this week since his harm, but it surely does not appear to be encouraging for followers.
“I spoke to him briefly,” Tocchet mentioned Saturday. “I do not really feel nice, however I can not say it is horrible, so I believe it is indefinite for now.
“This stuff can change in every week or in 24 hours. You by no means know.”
Boeser leads the crew in scoring this season with six objectives in 12 video games, so Vancouver will undoubtedly miss their greatest ahead ever whereas they get well from the blow.
Janeau was suspended for 3 video games by the NHL’s Workplace of Participant Security for uncontrollable and harmful hitting.
An official NHL assertion reads: “Janneau is in charge of this strike, and he chooses an method angle that cuts throughout the entrance of Boeser, lacking the crux and making his head the first level of contact.

“If Janeau needs to make this verify, he has to remain low and angle it by Boeser’s shoulders and core, moderately than at an angle the place his head is the first level of contact.”
Janeau has already served one recreation of his suspension, however will miss the subsequent two league video games towards the Flames and Avalanche.
