VANCOUVER -- Aaron Volpattis first goal of the season was also his last.

coach Alain Vigneault said Saturday the Canucks fourth-line left-winger will
miss the rest of the campaign due to a shoulder injury that will require surgery
within the next week. "Patti has been having some shoulder issues," Vigneault
said. "He had an MRI done (Friday) and, unfortunately, it showed a labrum tear."
Volpatti scored in Thursdays 6-5 loss to the Nashville Predators, his first goal
in almost a year. The last one came Dec., 20, 2010, in St. Louis during a rookie
season split between the NHL and the minors. The 26-year-old from Revelstoke,
B.C., signed with the Canucks as a free agent out of Brown University in March
2010 and secured full-time NHL employment this season after a strong prospects
camp, training camp and pre-season. Volpatti dressed for all but two games, when
he was a healthy scratch, and provided stability to a fourth line that underwent
constant change last season. "He was a real disappointed young man (Saturday)
morning. He was finding his rhythm in this league and on our team," Vigneault
said. "(He) was well appreciated in his role by his teammates and his coaches.
But, unfortunately, it isnt something that you can control." Volpattis absence
will result in the second significant change to the fourth line this season.
Earlier, Dale Weise, picked up on waivers from the New York Rangers, replaced
Viktor Oreskovich, who was sent to the minors. "It doesnt change what Dale Weise
is supposed to be, which is an energy and physical player," Vigneault added. "So
hes gotta continue to do that." Oreskovich, now with the Chicago Wolves of the
AHL, has struggled in the minors and is not expected back anytime soon. For now,
the Canucks do not plan on calling anyone up to replace Volpatti, who joins a
list of hard-luck grinding Vancouver forwards who have been sidelined with
injuries. All were off-season free agent signings. Steve Pinizzotto is out for
the season after suffering a shoulder injury in the exhibition campaign;
Byron Bitz is recuperating from hip surgery; and Andrew Ebbett has missed nine
games with a fractured foot suffered while blocking a shot Nov. 10 in Los
Angeles. Bitz skated on his own Saturday for the first time since undergoing
surgery, but is not expected to return anytime. He may go to the minors for
conditioning purposes first, while Ebbett is at least two weeks away from
returning. "Thats why you need depth," said Vigneault with a chuckle.

Smoak who made another huge play to keep Seattle from blowing the lead. With the
NHLs two largest markets in the Stanley Cup Final and a new labour agreement in
place, commissioner Gary Bettmans league is in the rare position of receiving
more positive news than negative. Bettman joined TSN 1050 too discuss the
matchup between the Rangers and Kings, rumours about expansion to Seattle and
the possibility of the NHLs participation in the next Olympics.
