Defenseman Chris Tanev and forwards Michael Chaput and Sven Baertschi will return to the lineup, and forward Joseph Cramarossa will make his debut for the Vancouver Canucks. Tanev (mumps) and Chaput (mumps symptoms) each missed two games, and Baertschi missed nine with a concussion sustained against the Nashville Predators on Feb. 7. "I know it's going to be a tough first period for me," Baertschi said. "It's just a matter of getting back into game shape. ... Tried to push it a little bit this morning, get a good sweat going, and I'm feeling good right now." Tanev said he had a setback after practicing Monday but expects to play. "Hopefully I'm over this thing now," Tanev said. Chaput also said he's ready to play. "So far no complications, so it's all good," he said. "I never experienced anything like that, but it's just nice to be back and be healthy again." Cramarossa, claimed off waivers from the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday, will skate on the fourth line. "I hope to bring the same physicality and energy I did with Anaheim," he said. Forward Nikita Tryamkin (mumps symptoms) remained in Vancouver, and coach Willie Desjardins said he doesn't expect him on the three-game road trip. Forward Nikolay Goldobin, acquired in a trade with the San Jose Sharks as part of the package for forward Jannik Hansen on Tuesday, won't play because of visa issues. Desjardins said it's likely that Goldobin will make his Canucks debut at the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday.
