Vancouver Canucks winger Brock Boeser is out with an upper-body injury, the team announced Tuesday. No timeline was given for his recovery.
Boeser's arm appeared to bend abnormally during Sunday's game against the Vegas Golden Knights when he collided with teammate Elias Pettersson, who was trying to lay a hit on Ben Hutton.

Boeser left the ice immediately but returned later in the game.
The 25-year-old recorded 19 goals and 19 assists in 64 games this season. He's set to be a restricted free agent at season's end with a qualifying offer of $7.5 million.
