Vancouver Canucks third pairing defenseman Ryan Stanton will not play on Saturday against the Tampa Bay Lightning, according to Canucks head coach Willie Desjardins:
Willie: Ryan Stanton will not play tonight. Weber in. Says there will be a few other changes. Admits Lack will start tonight. #canucks

Stanton left the game during Vancouver's 2-0 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Friday, and is listed as having a lower-body injury.
Though Desjardins suggested that the injury wasn't very serious on Friday night, the Canucks recalled defenseman Frank Corrado from the Utica Comets on Saturday afternoon, which suggests that Stanton may be more than just day-to-day.
