Ilya Mikheyev Leaves Practice Early Tuesday
12 months agoVancouver Canucks forward Ilya Mikheyev (knee) took part in Canucks practice on Tuesday but departed early and reportedly wasn't very involved in the on-ice session. The speedy winger underwent season-ending ACL surgery in January after initially suffering a partially torn ACL during a pre-season game in September of 2022. The Russian signed a four-year, $19 million contract with the Canucks prior to last season after spending three seasons with the Toronto Maple Leafs. The oft-injured Mikheyev tallied 13 goals and 28 points across 46 games in his first season with Vancouver but he will certainly endure another injury-shortened season in 2023-24, making him a risky fantasy investment on draft day.
