Derek Forbort Out For Personal Reasons
2 months agoVancouver Canucks defenseman Derek Forbort has left the team for personal reasons and will not play against Florida on Thursday. It's possible Forbort will miss the rest of the team's current road trip, which includes two more stops after Thursday night. The veteran blue-liner has registered one assist with three shots and five blocks in the first three games of the season, averaging 16:53 of ice time on the third defensive pairing. Vincent Desharnais and Erik Brannstrom are the candidates to replace him in the lineup on Thursday. Neither player holds any fantasy value.
