Oilers’ Adam Henrique likely to miss Game 1 vs. Canucks

Edmonton Oilers forward Adam Henrique is dealing with a lower-body injury and is not expected to play in Game 1 of the Western Conference second-round playoff series against the Vancouver Canucks on Wednesday night.

Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch said Henrique did not skate with the team Tuesday and is considered “day-to-day.”

Mattias Janmark will likely replace Henrique on Edmonton’s top line for the start of the best-of-seven series.

Henrique, 34, had a goal and an assist in the first round vs. the Los Angeles Kings. During the regular season, he had 51 points (24 goals, 27 assists) between the Oilers and Anaheim Ducks.
