Canucks' Hansen out 4-6 weeks with rib fracture
by from on (#214FB)
The Vancouver Canucks announced Thursday that Jannik Hansen will be sidelined for the next four to six weeks with a fractured rib.
The injury stems from a devastating hit by Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Morgan Rielly in a heated Saturday night contest.
Following the hit, Hansen jumped Maple Leafs forward Nazem Kadri for a blindside hit on Canucks forward Daniel Sedin.
Hansen has six points in 12 games, good for fourth among Canucks players.
