THE INTRO Leave it to the Canucks to face another streaking team gunning for the playoffs. The Chicago Blackhawks have won five-straight while the Canucks have spun the wheel of destiny (no such wheel) and have sprinkled wins and losses like the Salt Bae guy Vancouver pulled off the win in Dallas yesterday and they’ll…
THE INTRO Normally, the Canucks and Devils wouldn’t be appointment viewing and it isn’t exactly that tonight but Cory Schneider is back and there are a significant amount of injuries on the Devils’ squad that gives the Canucks a fighting chance to win their second-straight game. Wins and losses aren’t all that significant in the…
THE INTRO 13 games to go! The Canucks enter tonight’s game against the New York Rangers with a lot of questions. The obvious news is that Quinn Hughes is officially a Canuck but the fans will need to temper expectations because he isn’t going to single-handedly turn this team around, even Elias Pettersson hasn’t etched…
THE INTRO Nice. The Canucks get yet another game against the Vegas Golden Knights who are well on their way to the Stanley Cup Playoffs this spring for the second time in their brief existence. Vegas has won five-straight while the Canucks have struggled to string together three periods. Tonight will be another big test…
THE INTRO Not ones to dwell on a win (mainly because there haven’t been many), the Canucks make the trip to Edmonton today to take on the Oilers, winners of three-straight. Vancouver and Edmonton match up fairly well but it’s the Canucks who will have to play spoiler if the actually believe in the playoffs…
THE INTRO The Vancouver Canucks are in Vegas today to take on the ever-popular Golden Knights. The atmosphere will be booming and Vegas is riding a bit of a win streak. The Canucks are looking for answers right now and they could really use some EP40 magic. Pushing for the playoffs will still occur but…
THE INTRO Vancouver lost a heartbreaker in Colorado via the shootout one night ago and they’ll look to rebound from said loss and try and keep with the pack in the push to get Wild Card spot numero deux. Tonight, it’s the Arizona Coyotes who host the Canucks and those desert dogs are winners of…
THE INTRO Somehow, some way, the Canucks made it through the NHL Trade Deadline, depending on who you ask. Vancouver will have a new look defense tonight with the departure of Erik Gudbranson going to Pittsburgh. Luke Schenn impressed in his Canucks’ debut and will be in the lineup until at least Alex Edler’s return….
THE INTRO It’s Trade Deadline Day and the Canucks have the privilege of hosting the Anaheim Ducks. With a Ducks victory, they’ll pull within a point of the Canucks so count on that happening. The #playoffs are now a distant dream the Canucks should no longer wish for and the focus now should be on…
THE INTRO The last time the Canucks and Islanders met, Brendan Leipsic was a Canuck and Jake Virtanen was scoring power-play goals. Neither of these things exists anymore but the bad puck luck has continued to follow Vancouver since their last meeting in Brooklyn. That being said, Jacob Markstrom’s new mask has turned things around…
THE INTRO The Canucks have been off since the weekend and a lot has transpired since then. Ryan Spooner is now a Canuck and gets the duty of playing alongside Brock Boeser and Elias Pettersson. Ashton Sautner will see his first game of the season and like so many seasons prior, Vancouver has a mish-mash…
THE INTRO Good news! There’s no pregame ceremony starting at 7:45 tonight so this one will end at a reasonable hour. Tonight, the Canucks travel to San Jose to take on the surging Sharks. San Jose is coming off a tight game against the Capitals and will look to take over the top spot in…
