Canucks' Phil Di Giuseppe: Rejoins team ahead of Game 5
Di Giuseppe (personal) was back with the team for Thursday's game-day skate prior to Game 5 versus Edmonton, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.
Di Giuseppe is goalless in 13 straight contests in which he recorded one lone helper, four shots and six blocks while dishing out 36 hits. Given his offensive limitations, Di Giuseppe is far from a lock to suit up in Game 5 and could continue watching from the press box in favor of Linus Karlsson, Vasily Podkolzin or Nils Hoglander -- all of whom will no doubt be pushing for minutes.

Canucks' Phil Di Giuseppe: Won't return before ASG
Di Giuseppe (undisclosed) is not expected to return to the lineup before the NHL All-Star break, Jeff Paterson of The Hockey News reports Thursday.
Di Giuseppe still hasn't started skating, so this extended timeline shouldn't come as a surprise. Even prior to getting hurt, the 30-year-old winger was a frequent healthy scratch, no doubt in part due to his 14-game pointless streak. As such, even once Di Giuseppe is cleared to return, he is unlikely to offer much in the way of fantasy impact.
