Considered game-time decision Head coach Rick Tocchet said Monday that Hronek (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's matchup against Winnipeg, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Hronek has been sidelined since late November due to a lower-body injury, but he rejoined the Canucks on Monday following a conditioning stint with AHL Abbotsford. The team wants to see how he feels in the hours leading up to Tuesday's puck drop, but his return to game action appears to be imminent. If Hronek isn't given the green light against the Jets, he'll likely be in the mix to suit up at home against the Kings on Thursday.

Once he's deemed healthy, he'll likely reclaim a top-four role with a spot on the second power-play unit.

Slides assist Hronek produced an assist and two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

Impact Hronek had been held off the scoresheet in the previous two contests, his first multi-game drought since the end of October. The 27-year-old defenseman quickly snapped the short slump, setting up Quinn Hughes' first-minute tally. Hronek now has a goal, six assists, 19 shots on net, 32 hits, 17 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a plus-9 rating through 18 appearances. His offense hasn't been as strong as last year (48 points in 81 regular-season games), but the lack of better options on the roster keeps Hronek secure in a top-pairing role.
