Goaltender Dan Cloutier has a sprained right ankle and will miss the rest of the Vancouver Canucks first-round playoff series with the Calgary Flames. Coach Marc Crawford said Wednesday Cloutier has been fitted with a walking boot. Cloutier was hurt late in the first period of Vancouver's 2-1 win Sunday night. He was replaced by backup Johan Hedberg.
Hedberg was in goal in the Canucks 4-0 loss to Calgary Tuesday night which tied the best-of-seven series 2-2. Game 5 will be played Thursday in Vancouver.

The Detroit Tigers on Wednesday recalled veteran pitcher Ugueth Urbina from Class A Lakeland. Urbina agreed to terms on a one-year contract with Detroit in the offseason.
