    "The Vancouver Canucks re-assigned Victor Oreskovich to Manitoba, paving the way for Tanner Glass's return to the fourth line.

    Glass has been out since trying to play through a rib injury March 10 in San Jose.

    "Tanner had an MRI (Friday). He's had all the tests and all the tests revealed the same thing," Alain Vigneault said. "He's had a slight irritation in his ribs that's making it painful to pass and shoot.

    "What we thought was a day-to-day thing has turned out to be a little bit longer. We're hoping to bring him on the trip here and we're hoping (he plays) sometime on the trip."

    Also on the injury front, Aaron Rome was "sick" Saturday and Mikael Samuelsson skipped another practice because of "tweaks" to his body and because "he's older," Vigneault said."
