Canucks’ Olli Juolevi To Undergo Back Surgery

Vancouver Canucks defenseman prospect Olli Juolevi will undergo a microdiscectomy procedure for a disc in his lower back, the team officially announced on Monday.

Juolevi began experiencing discomfort during offseason training and after consulting with the team’s medical staff, they decided on the durgery.

While Juolevi was the 5th overall pick in the 2016 draft, he has failed to live up to expectations and is the only player selected in the Top 11 spots in that draft that has yet to appear in the NHL.
