Garland (undisclosed) isn't expected to join the Canucks on their upcoming road trip, which begins Thursday in St. Louis, Farhan Lalji of TSN reports Wednesday.
Quinn Hughes (lower body) also won't travel with the Canucks to St. Louis but could join the team in Minnesota for Saturday's contest or Nashville for Monday's game. Allvin putting forward the possibility of Hughes playing later in the road trip, but not Garland, would seem to indicate that Garland will miss all three of those games. If that's the case, Garland's next chance to play might come when Vancouver hosts the Blackhawks next Wednesday. In the meantime, Kiefer Sherwood might take on a bigger role due to Garland's absence.

Rotowire
Garland scored his second goal of the season in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Penguins.
The 29-year-old winger found the back of the net on Vancouver's first shot of the night, but that was all the offense the visitors could muster against Arturs Silovs. Garland has gotten onto the scoresheet in four straight games, collecting two goals and four assists over that stretch -- with three of the helpers coming on the power play -- while adding 12 shots on net, five hits, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating.

Canucks' Conor Garland: Serves two apples in win
Rotowire
Garland had two assists, four shots on goal, one hit and a plus-1 rating during 22:20 of ice time in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Capitals.
Garland is on a point-per-game pace after notching two assists during Sunday's win. The 29-year-old now has five points in his last three games, a major reason why the Canucks have won all three. His usage on the top line and top power-play unit will give Garland plenty of opportunities to prove that this start is no fluke going forward.

Canucks' Conor Garland: One of each Thursday
Rotowire
Garland scored a goal on three shots, added a power-play assist and logged two PIM in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Stars.
Garland had played lower in the lineup to begin 2025-26, but he was shuffled onto the first line Thursday. The payoff was quick, as he scored the Canucks' game-winner in the second period and set up Quinn Hughes' goal in the third. Garland has a goal, two assists, 12 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through four appearances. He may still move around the lineup, but the winger is capable of recording 45 to 50 points in a full season.

Garland (undisclosed) is set to play in Wednesday's preseason game versus the Flames, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Garland missed three preseason games while working his way back from a minor injury.

Canucks' Conor Garland: Unavailable Friday
Rotowire
Garland (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup for Friday's preseason game against Seattle, per Alison Lukan of the Kraken Hockey Network.
Garland's injury is believed to be minor, so he might still be fine for the start of the regular season. He had 19 goals, 50 points, 52 PIM, 171 shots and 49 hits across 81 appearances with the Canucks in 2024-25.

Canucks' Conor Garland: Sits out practice
Rotowire
Garland (undisclosed) was held out of Tuesday's practice for maintenance purposes, according to Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650.
Garland probably won't be in the lineup for Wednesday's preseason game against Calgary. Still, the injury is minor, and he should be back on the ice soon. Garland registered 19 goals and 50 points over 81 regular-season outings in 2024-25.
Garland inked a six-year, $36 million contract extension with Vancouver on Tuesday.
Garland came up a tally short of the 20-goal mark this past season but still managed to reach the 50-point threshold for the second time in his seven-year NHL career. The 29-year-old winger logged 2:55 of ice time per game with the man advantage, the highest in his career, generating 16 power-play points. There is no reason to expect that Garland won't continue to fill a No. 1 power-play role this year, so he should be capable of reaching both the 20-goal and 50-point marks in 2025-26.

Canucks' Conor Garland: Puts away tying goal
Rotowire
Garland scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Devils.
This was Garland's first goal in three games since he missed one contest last Tuesday versus the Jets. The 29-year-old winger has maintained a top-six role since returning to action, but the Canucks' offense is likely to take a serious hit with Elias Pettersson (undisclosed), Filip Chytil (concussion) and Nils Hoglander (undisclosed) all out for the remainder of the team's current road trip that runs through the end of March. Garland has put together a decent season with 18 goals, 42 points, 151 shots on net and a minus-8 rating over 70 appearances, but it remains to be seen if he'll be able to pick up the slack.
