Status report
The Canucks did not hold a morning skate Tuesday following a 6-3 loss at the Montreal Canadiens on Monday. … Lankinen is expected to start after Tolopio made 35 saves at Montreal. … Buium is also expected to return after being a healthy scratch Monday, but it is not yet known who he will replace; Joseph, a defenseman, could come out. … Linus Ullmark, a goalie who remains on the Senators’ non-roster lift after taking a personal leave of absence Dec. 28, is “hopefully approaching getting back with the team,” Ottawa coach Travis Green said. … Reimer, a goalie who signed a one-year contract Monday, will not dress Tuesday but is expected to make his season debut this week. … Green said there are no personnel changes from a 3-2 loss to the Florida Panthers on Saturday, but he plans to tweak the lines.
