Canucks' Mikael Samuelsson Out 2-To-3 Weeks With Upper-Body Injury

Mikael Samuelsson will be out of the Vancouver Canucks' line-up for two-to-three weeks because of, presumably, a shoulder injury which caused him to leave Tuesday's game against the New York Islanders. The team has recalled Michael Grabner from the AHL to place onto the second line with Pavol Demitra and Ryan Kesler.

The injury couldn't have come at a worse time for Samuelsson who had nine goals and 13 points in the last seven games for Vancouver.
