THE INTRO Erase and rewind as the Canucks move on to face the Islanders at the Barclays Center this evening. Losing a tight battle to the Rangers one night ago will still be fresh on the Canucks minds but the Islanders are waiting to complete the New York sweep of the West Coast team. Both…
THE INTRO Last season, the New York Rangers published a letter to its fans stating they were going into a rebuild. They sold off assets to help this rebuild take place and were up front about the process. The Vancouver Canucks lost the Stanley Cup eight years ago and have tried to figure out how…
THE INTRO Maybe you’re a coffee person and that cup of caffeine gets you through the first part of your day, maybe you have a protein shake with all those special super-food ingredients and you get high on life first thing in the morning, or maybe… maybe you’ve been awake since 7:00 am this morning…
THE INTRO It’s unusual to have the Canucks/Bruins season series over so soon but tonight the second leg of the home and home will take place, this time in Boston. Since the last time these two teams met, there has been a surge of hype surrounding the Canucks most prized possession, Elias Pettersson. The Bruins…
THE INTRO The Canucks haven’t played in what feels like forever and tonight they get back to their fairy tale season as they enter Little Caesar’s Arena to take on the Detroit Red Wings. Who would have thought the Canucks would be the ones riding the hot streak? Vancouver is four points back of first…
THE INTRO Riding high after yet another comeback win, the Canucks welcome the Colorado Avalanche to Rogers Arena this evening to hopefully put another impressive W up on the board. The Avalanche are licking their wounds after getting blasted by the Flames in the third period last night. Holding a 4-1 lead going into the…
THE INTRO It’s Halloween, so spooky! The Canucks and their ghoulish lineup will take on the visiting Chicago Blackhawks, the team that once gave them nightmares. Vancouver is coming off an impressive win over the Wild two nights ago with the help of super rookie Elias Pettersson. Pettersson is only getting better and better and…
THE INTRO It just gets worse on the injury front for the Canucks: Anders Nilsson broke his finger in practice on the weekend and will be out a few weeks. What the Canucks should be concerning themselves with is defense, like committing to playing some. The Penguins shredded the Canucks defense on Saturday and it…
THE SKINNY Before tonight’s game, the Canucks were ready to get back to enjoying life with new rookie Elias Pettersson back in the lineup. Brock Boeser was also healthy and maybe just maybe, the Canucks could show up the Penguins yet again. That was not the result that materialized. The Canucks did hold court with…
THE INTRO Today could be the day. Today could be the return of the Canucks meal ticket, Elias Pettersson. It also could be the day Brock Boeser returns to the lineup, Chris Tanev joins his team, and an entire province can exhale. The wait, although excruciating, hasn’t been as long as it could be for…
THE INTRO Although the flight to Arizona is a quick one, the flight from Utica is a bit longer. Vancouver comes to Arizona to take on a Coyotes team that is already challenging for the brother of Quinn Hughes. The Canucks will be in tough after losing what felt like half the roster last night…
THE INTRO Both the Canucks and Golden Knights have had similar starts to the season, the only difference is the Golden Knights are expected to be better than .500. The Canucks have welcomed their dads for a two-game road trip to Vegas and Arizona so we can all assume Elias Pettersson’s dad is going to…
