Quinn Hughes announced he will make his return to the Vancouver Canucks lineup on Tuesday versus the St. Louis Blues after missing one game with a knee injury.
"Green light, good to go," Hughes said Tuesday. "A lot of people thought it was my ankle ... I just kind of bruised my knee a bit."
Hughes left Friday's contest against the Anaheim Ducks and didn't return after awkwardly twisting his leg when his skate got caught in the ice.
The rookie defenseman has 10 points in 13 games so far this season and has been in the discussion for the Calder Trophy.
