Canucks' Corrado will play Tuesday vs. Lightning; Stanton out

The Vancouver Canucks will shuffle their blue-line group Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning, which is somewhat surprising since it comes in the wake of a tight defensive effort during a 2-1 victory over the Florida Panthers on Monday.
From TSN's Jon Abbott:
Early sights of #Canucks warm-up: no Stanton, so Corrado in. #TSN1040

Frank Corrado, 21, will make his fourth appearance of the season. He's yet to record his first point. He'll fill in for Ryan Stanton, who has mostly played alongside Kevin Bieksa in a third-pairing role.
While Stanton has managed to keep his head above water in terms of goal differential, he has been far and away Vancouver's worst defender by shot-attempt differential.
