With Team Canada's opener at the World Hockey Championship just days away, the health of defenceman P.K. Subban remains a question mark.

Subban is listed as day-to-day with a lower-body injury and will not play in Tuesday's pre-tournament game against Switzerland. However, he will accompany the team to Helsinki, where Canada begins the tournament on Friday.

Meanwhile, defenceman Marc-Edouard Vlasic is scheduled to arrive on Tuesday with forward Ryan Getzlaf and goaltender Matt Hackett meeting the team in Helsinki on Wednesday.
