"He's on the trip. He's skating. Definitely getting closer," Canucks' coach Travis Green told the media today. If Bärtschi will already be ready for this night's clash with the Stars at the American Airlines Center, however, remains to be seen.

Bärtschi has been dealing with a post-concussion syndrome since the beginning of February, after a severe concussion kept him away from the ice rink for over two months last year. In 22 games this season, he has recorded eight goals and five assists.
