Canucks' forward undergoes surgery.

Vancouver Canucks will be without Brandon Sutter for at least 4 weeks, after he went under sports hernia surgery today.

GM Jim Benning believes that it was the right time for the 26 year-old forward to do so.

"Following a period of treatment and evaluation, our medical team determined that the best course of action for Brandon was to perform this procedure,”

Sutter had 4 goals and 4 assists in 16 games with Vancouver so far.
